One night six years ago, at a Sheraton Hotel just east of Los Angeles, a woman went over the balcony of Room 813 in the middle of the night.
Officers identified the victim as Sandra Orellana, 27, a single woman from Houston. She was found in a pool of blood, 104 feet down from the balcony of her hotel room.
During their investigation, Robert Lee Salazar, a 33-year-old executive from Houston, came out of Room 815. When Salazar learned about the incident, he told police that Orellana worked for him and that they were traveling together.
Salazar, who was married with two children, told the deputy he and Orellana had been out the night before to dinner, and had been drinking. He said she'd been very drunk, and he had taken her to her room about midnight, closed the door, and left.
But police were suspicious. They had found a pair of men's underwear in Orellana's room, Room 813, and a shoe wrapped up in the bedding at the foot of the bed.
In Salazar's room, Room 815, Rodriguez found the matching shoe and underwear similar to that found in the other room. Salazar soon admitted that he had had sex with Orellano the night before, and that she had accidentally fallen while they were engaged in foreplay on the balcony.
"[I was] rubbing on her, she was rubbing on me. She, she turned around. And then all of the sudden she, she grabbed the balcony and pushed herself up to, to turn over. And when she did that, she just went over," he told Rodriguez.
Salazar never called anyone to report that Orellana had gone off the balcony. He did, however, make two other phone calls - two chilling phone calls that, according to Rodriguez, made him look even more guilty.
Rodriguez arrested Salazar the next day.
