On April 28, 2012, 23-year-old Jose Jijon Hidalgo, a Hispanic/Latino man, was reported as having died in the Florence-Firestone area of Los Angeles County. Contemporary listings of that day's homicides identify the cause of death as strangulation.
Jose Jijon Hidalgo was 23 at the time of his death. Public homicide listings that compile coroner and media records include his name, age, date and location; beyond those basic case details, there is little publicly available biographical information in the records reviewed. The listing ties the case to the Los Angeles County homicide counts for April 28, 2012, but does not provide narrative details about circumstances leading to his death, persons of interest, or investigative breakthroughs.
Notification of the death appears in homicide databases and community-generated pages that drew from the Los Angeles Times Homicide Report and county coroner tallies, but I did not find any public police or sheriff's press release, court filing, obituary with further details, or announcement of an arrest or charge connected to the case in the sources consulted. There is no documented reward notice or active tip line identified in the materials reviewed.
As of the records and pages examined, the homicide of Jose Jijon Hidalgo remains unsolved with no publicly reported arrests or charges. If law enforcement information or a formal tip line exists, it was not located in the sources accessed for this synopsis.
