Man Faces First-Degree Murder Charge of El Taiger

Damian Valdez-Galloso, accused of murdering Cuban reggaeton artist El Taiger, now faces a first-degree murder charge after a Miami-Dade grand jury indictment. Valdez-Galloso, a registered sex offender, allegedly shot José Manuel Carbajal Zaldívar, known as El Taiger, in the head at his Hialeah home, then transported his body in an SUV where it was later discovered. Valdez-Galloso fled to New York but was arrested and extradited back to Miami. Prosecutors are yet to decide whether to seek the death penalty. The case has drawn significant attention due to El Taiger's prominence in the music industry. Valdez-Galloso has pleaded not guilty and is held without bond.
