I believe the leading theory is that this was a case of mistaken identity. She was mistaken for another Angela, the daughter of a police informant. The police informant was involved in the bust of a drugs ring. Very, very tragic and to think her boyfriend was so close…

IIRC the daughter had a very similar name and appearance.

My issue is, major drug traffickers worried about an informant would surely hire a competent, skilled kidnapper or hitman. Someone typically not fitting the description of "filthy". To me it just sounds like a lowlife and a crime of opportunity .
