This premeditated murder happened at least 1-1/2 months ago. This was big news in the Republic of Panama because Jaime Rodrigo was a Panamanian citizen (no doubt dual citizenship).
Its still not known (here in Panama) why Michael Hernandez murdered Jaime because they were best friends, they were both making top grades, and they weren't running around with a raunchy crowd.
Its = It's. Sorry.
