What a monster. This man had a good job, a ranch in a prime area, a wife and 2 sons and he’s out preying on women at the casino. Christie had her whole life a head of her. So sad.

How come no one is giving the son credit?!?! He basically solved the case!!!

[Jaydee]

The two detectives are owed everything for bringing this girl home. They went above and beyond for Christie and her family. Thank God for them.

Her mother is a very strong woman. Much respect going to her to keep her memory alive.

[greeneyedgirlyy]

the fact that he continues to lie is disgusting.

When the interviewer asked him if he killed Christie he said no but was nodding his head up and down. His body betrayed him. It was literally responding "yes".

I cried when her husband said, “They brought 2 persons home, Christie and my wife” … that was powerful 😢❤🙏🏾

Not only Christie is his victim but also his children. May Christie rest in peace and may his children have the courage to continue living their lives with dignity and not allow his father's choice affect their lives forever.

I pity Garcia’s family. It’s true what the detectives said, they never asked for a murderer as their husband and father. They deserved better. I’m glad the wife and his son decided to speak up. I hope they all were able to move forward with lighter hearts despite this nightmare.

I'm glad the son told about the day when his dad got ill with him while digging on their old property. To me, he solved the case, but I thank the detectives for not giving up.

[pchaparala]

It is chilling how truly evil that dude is. Zero remorse. Thank God he is off the streets. God Bless Kristy’s family 🙏🏽

[karinpienaar]

Unbelievable how he would sit there in court with a straight face and anger professing his innocence when he's got her buried in his backyard!

[christinek]

This wasn’t possible without Garcias wife and children. So thanks to them as well 🙏

[Youtubing]

These investigators are seriously incredible!! They even flew in to tell her about the findings of remains. They deserve an award!

[impikazulu]

Absolute superstars those cops are! Unflinching dedication and professionalism

[theresachung]

Those police detectives have my deepest respect. May you all be blessed

Erin Moriority does such a good job with these stories and interviews.

[krmccarrell]

A big thank you to Garcia's wife and sons, who really broke the case! Thank you, thank you!

He saw the girl losing all her money at the black Jack table and can tell she has a gambling problem, he was said to be intelligent and he had an eye for what he saw as an easy target. he uses his dad face to make her feel comfortable and when she’s tapped out he “lends” her some money and when she loses it all he then says how are we going to get my money. She purposely leaves her phone as a way to get away because she starts to get an uneasy feeling. On the way out he grabs at her acting as if she’s trying to dip out and not pay him back. When she says she forgot her phone and needs to go get it is the moment he claimed to be an embrace was actually the moment he snatched her up and hid her in his car. We all know what happened from there. RIP Christy
