    Perez’s friends described her relationship with Machado Vasquez, whom she had known since high school, as “toxic” adding that he threatened her with the gun.

    “There were times where she’d call me because she was afraid to leave the house,” a friend said.

    “He would, like, sit outside her house, just watching her for hours. She would be in her house, watching him on cameras she had from inside her room, terrified.”
