Mexican beauty influencer shot during the Tikok Live stream | Mexico

A young Mexican Social Media Influencer, who is known for her videos about beauty and make-up, was brazenly shot during a Tikok live stream, in an incident in which shock waves were sent through a country that is exposed to a high degree of gender violence.

The death of Valeria Márquez, 23, is examined as a female – the explanation of a women or a girl from gender – said Jalalco's prosecutor in a statement published on Tuesday evening.

Femicide can include humiliating violence, sexual abuse, a relationship with the murderer or the body's body in a public space, according to the Mexican authorities.

Márquez was killed in the beauty salon on Tuesday by working in the city of Zapopan by a man who entered and shot her, the explanation said. The public prosecutor did not name a suspect.

Seconds before the incident, Márquez was seen on her Tikkok Livestream, who sits at a table and held a stuffed toy. She said, “You come” before a voice in the background asked: “Hey, Vale?”

“Yes,” replied Márquez, just before he voted the sound on the live stream.

Moments later she was shot. One person seemed to pick up her phone, where her face was briefly displayed shortly before the end of the video on the live stream.

Márquez, who had almost 200,000 followers in Instagram and Tiktok, had previously said on the live stream that someone came to the salon when she was not with an “expensive gift” to deliver her. Márquez, who seemed to be worried, said she was unable to wait for the person to come back.

Mexico is connected to Paraguay, Uruguay and Bolivia as countries with the fourth highest female female rates in Latin America and the Caribbean. This is based on the latest data from the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean with 1.3 such deaths in 2023.

Jalalco occupies sixth place from the 32 states of Mexico, including Mexico City, for murders, and 906, according to data consulting firm Tresearch, are recorded there after the term of office of President Claudia Sheinbaum.
