Broward killer arrested in Texas

Bianca Sierra’s young son and daughter were the ones who found her body. Her boyfriend had fractured her skull with a sledge hammer, left her body in the bed they shared and took off in her car. Detectives found her Mazda  five days later in Jacksonville, but Jorge Villamizar-Ayala seemed to have disappeared.

But an America’s Most Wanted viewer recently called in a tip about Villamizar-Ayala’s location, and authorities tracked him down Friday night to Brownsville, Texas and arrested him at 10:35 p.m. as he walked out of Camino Del Rio Pentecostal Church. Villamizar-Ayala gave the U.S. Marshals who arrested him a fake name, but fingerprints proved they had the right man.

“I want to congratulate BSO detectives, the U.S. Marshals and America’s Most Wanted,” Sheriff Al Lamberti said. “It took a lot of people working together to get an extremely dangerous criminal off the streets.”

Sierra’s son was 6 and her daughter was 9 when they jimmied the lock on their mother’s bedroom door and found her body. They ran to a next door neighbor’s apartment for help. A blood-spattered sledge hammer was in a bucket in a hall closet.

BSO Homicide detectives extradited Villamizar-Ayala Monday evening from Texas to Broward County, where he will face charges of 1st-degree murder and unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. He is also wanted for DUI in Miami-Dade, attempted murder in New York, homicide in Cali, Colombia, offenses of life, liberty and sexual morals in Bogota, Colombia and aggravated assault on a minor and sexual assault on a minor in Houston, Texas.
