Keishla Rodríguez Murdered by Félix Verdejo Sánchez and Luis Antonio Cádiz, San Juan
This source-based behavioral analysis does not establish a clinical diagnosis, motive, or legal finding.
The source depicts a relationship system marked by overlapping attachments, secrecy, repeated betrayal, threats, and escalating conflict around pregnancy and public reputation. The behavioral analysis is based on a narrated true-crime report rather than clinical assessment. It does not establish diagnoses or independently verify every allegation.
The reported central dynamic was a secret relationship between Félix Verdejo Sánchez and Keishla Rodríguez continuing alongside Félix's marriage to Elizabeth Santiago. The account describes coercive pressure directed at Keishla, including opposition to her pregnancy and threats concerning other men. Elizabeth's discovery of messages, Brice's warnings, and Luis's reported facilitation are presented as important relationship and escalation features.
The reported pathway moved from overlapping relationships and concealment to discovery, threats, pregnancy-related conflict, planned involvement of an accomplice, alleged physical violence, concealment, and a homicide investigation. Post-incident denial and Luis's reported confession shaped the later case narrative.
Each entry separates the reported behavior or state from the analytical strength of the available narration.
| Behavior / construct | Person / subject | Detailed case context | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infidelity or competing attachment Relationship stressor | Félix Verdejo Sánchez OffenderLover of victim |
The reported relationship structure involved a primary marriage and an ongoing secret relationship. Félix was described as presenting publicly as a devoted husband while continuing contact with Keishla. This discrepancy is relevant to the later pregnancy dispute and alleged fear of reputational damage. Context or trigger: Félix's marriage to Elizabeth coexisted with his continuing relationship with Keishla. Reported expression: The source reports that Félix maintained secret meetings with Keishla after marriage and after Elizabeth discovered messages involving multiple women. This competing-attachment pattern generated repeated secrecy and conflict within the household. |
Explicitly reported Confidence: High |
| Deception or concealment Behavioral pattern | Félix Verdejo Sánchez OffenderLover of victim |
Concealment reportedly operated both before and after the disappearance. The alleged secrecy around the affair and the later alibi created a pattern in which information was withheld from relationship partners and investigators. The source presents this concealment as behavior, not as evidence of a clinical condition. Context or trigger: The affair continued despite marriage and discovery of messages. Reported expression: The source describes hidden meetings, denials to Elizabeth, and an alleged false account that Félix had spent the relevant night at home with his family. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Coercive control Control dynamics | Félix Verdejo Sánchez OffenderLover of victim |
The reported conduct included attempts to control Keishla's romantic choices and reproductive decision. His alleged threats and refusal to accept her stated decision indicate a pattern of domination within the relationship. This interpretation is behavioral and source-limited, not a clinical assessment. Context or trigger: Keishla reportedly tried to end the relationship and later chose to continue her pregnancy. Reported expression: The source says Félix did not let Keishla leave the relationship, threatened her about other men, and insisted that she terminate the pregnancy. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Separation or abandonment threat Loss or threat | Keishla Rodríguez VictimLover of offender |
Keishla was reportedly caught between awareness that Félix was engaged or married and continued emotional attachment to him. Her hope that he would accept the pregnancy appears to have influenced her decision to attend the meeting despite warnings from Brice. The account does not establish her internal state beyond these reported actions and statements. Context or trigger: Keishla's relationship with Félix was unstable and overlapped with his marriage. Reported expression: The source says Keishla repeatedly attempted to end the relationship but continued to love Félix and retained hope that he would accept the child. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: Moderate |
| Fear or perceived threat Emotional state | Brice Nicole Rodríguez WitnessSister of the Victim |
Brice reportedly recognized the meeting as dangerous before the disappearance occurred. Her efforts to warn Keishla and notify their mother represent a perception of escalating risk within the relationship system. The warning did not prevent the meeting, but it later became relevant to the missing-person response. Context or trigger: Brice learned about Félix's threats and the planned meeting. Reported expression: The source says Brice regarded the situation as worrying, feared that Félix might harm Keishla, and contacted their mother. |
Explicitly reported Confidence: High |
| Emotional escalation Escalation | Case-wide |
The reported conflict intensified across several stages rather than appearing as an isolated disagreement. Relationship secrecy was followed by discovery, temporary separation, renewed contact, pregnancy disclosure, and a disputed meeting. The source then describes alleged violence and concealment, although the exact causal chain should be treated as the prosecution narrative reported in the video. Context or trigger: The affair, pregnancy, abortion demands, and fear of reputational damage accumulated over time. Reported expression: The source describes repeated arguments, threats, discovery of messages, a pregnancy dispute, and a final confrontation that allegedly became physically violent. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Premeditation and planning Planning or impulsivity | Félix Verdejo Sánchez OffenderLover of victim |
The reported preparation included coordination with another person, selection of a meeting opportunity, concealment of an accomplice, and preparation of materials for transport and concealment. These reported actions support an analytical interpretation of advance planning. They do not independently establish every detail beyond the source's account and court outcome. Context or trigger: Keishla reportedly refused to terminate the pregnancy. Reported expression: The source alleges that Félix recruited Luis, offered money, arranged a meeting under a stated pretext, and prepared materials and drugs before the encounter. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Co-offender facilitation Offender behavior | Luis Antonio Cádiz AccompliceFriend of the offender |
The source portrays Luis as facilitating the alleged plan through preparation, transport, and later disclosure to investigators. His reported surrender and admission provided an insider account used to reconstruct the event. The reported cooperation does not by itself resolve every question about individual responsibility beyond the stated conviction. Context or trigger: Félix reportedly asked Luis to assist after learning of Keishla's pregnancy. Reported expression: Luis allegedly agreed after being offered money, prepared drugs, brought rope and a concrete block, drove Keishla's car, and later testified. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Staging or evidence concealment Post-offense behavior | Félix Verdejo Sánchez and Luis Antonio Cádiz |
The reported actions were directed toward hiding the body and reducing visibility of the alleged offense. Separate vehicle movements and the abandoned car became part of the later investigative reconstruction. This observation describes reported post-incident behavior and does not independently verify the narrative. Context or trigger: The source alleges that Keishla was attacked during the meeting. Reported expression: The report describes tying Keishla to concrete blocks, covering her with a tarp, moving her using separate vehicles, and leaving her car abandoned. |
Narrative-supported psychological state Confidence: High |
| Relationship decision process Cognitive pattern | Keishla Rodríguez VictimLover of offender |
Keishla's reported decision was a central turning point in the relationship conflict. She communicated the pregnancy to her sister and Félix, sought confirmation through a hospital, and maintained her stated choice despite pressure. The source frames this decision as connected to the subsequent confrontation, but it does not prove motive independently. Context or trigger: Keishla learned she was pregnant and faced pressure to terminate the pregnancy. Reported expression: She reportedly decided to continue the pregnancy even if she had to raise the child alone and took the medical certificate to the meeting. |

Select a stage to expand it; scroll horizontally to follow the full sequence.
The source reports that Keishla and Félix attended the same school and began a romantic relationship. This relationship later continued alongside Félix's relationship with Elizabeth.
Félix married Elizabeth in 2016, but the source says he continued meeting Keishla without Elizabeth's knowledge. The overlapping relationships created the central love-triangle context.
Elizabeth reportedly discovered messages involving multiple women, including Keishla. The source describes a major argument, threats of divorce, and a temporary interruption of Félix's contact with Keishla.
Keishla reportedly confirmed her pregnancy and said she wanted to keep the child. Félix allegedly demanded termination and linked the pregnancy to potential damage to his fame.
Brice reportedly warned that the situation was dangerous and told their mother about the threats. Keishla nevertheless attended the meeting after Félix said he wanted to see her medical certificate.
The source alleges that Félix recruited Luis, offered money, concealed him in the pickup, and prepared drugs and materials before the meeting. These reported actions form the alleged planning stage.
The source reports an argument, alleged physical assault, movement of Keishla between vehicles, use of concrete blocks and a tarp, and disposal in the water near a bridge. It also reports that the participants left separately.
Colleagues reportedly noticed Keishla's unexplained absence, contacted Brice, and helped initiate a search. Brice entered the home, contacted her mother, and reported threats and the disappearance to police.
Félix reportedly maintained that he was innocent and gave an alibi that was not confirmed by Elizabeth. The source says surveillance, phone data, physical evidence, a firearm, and Luis's testimony preceded convictions and life sentences.
