‘Damn, last night was fun as hell!,’ or something similar, is probably a fairly common post on Facebook. However, the circumstance surrounding its use in this instance is quite chilling.

Andrew Luis Marrero was allegedly hired by a pregnant teenager’s boyfriend to attack her so that she would lose her baby.

Marrero is a 19-year-old student at the University of Tampa, FL. He told authorities that he was hired to fake a kidnapping of the couple. During the assault, he took them to a wooded area where he repeatedly kicked and punched the 17-year-old female victim in the stomach. During the attack, she told Marrero that she was three months pregnant, and she begged him to stop. He continued the beating and shouted, “That’s how much I care, bitch.” The teen and her unborn child survived the attack.

Marrero later boasted on Facebook that he was now rich. His sister asked him if he won the lottery. He stated that he hadn’t, and her response was, “You and your damn mysteries.”

The female victim identified Marrero from a photo lineup at the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office. Marrero was then arrested and charged with kidnapping and aggravated battery on a pregnant female. He then told detectives he was hired by the boyfriend. He further stated that he received instructions from the boyfriend to concentrate on hitting her in the stomach, so she would lose the baby. Marrero was freed on $60,000 bond.

The boyfriend has yet to be identified, but authorities did confirm that they believe he arranged the attack. More arrests are expected.
