Charged With Murder 

Twenty-one-year-old Armando Tyler Coc has been charged with the murder of 29-year-old Wilmer Alexander Che.

Che was found shirtless with multiple cut wounds in what police suspect to be a murder in late October.Irma Che, Wilmer’s sister, told News 5 that she received a call from police who confirmed her worst fears—that her brother had been killed. For the past five years, Wilmer had battled a mental disability, which had grown more severe, leading him to live in isolation and seek refuge outdoors. Despite the hardships, his family cared for him tirelessly, feeding and clothing him.

Irma recalls her brother as a kind and respectful person who loved to fish and had once dreamed of having a family. Reflecting on the vulnerability of people with mental disabilities, Irma shared the challenges Wilmer faced and the small acts of kindness he received from strangers.
