Gloria Martinez, 19, was found dead inside a bin outside a vacant West Side home in August 2022.

In court, Rangel pleaded guilty to the concealing a human corpse charge and admitted to the judge that he helped move the bin Martinez was in from one location to another.

Rangel’s plea deal grouped together several different charges Rangel had pending.

Two weeks ago, Adam Rangel was given an eight-year plea deal, and Allyson Paredes was given a two-year plea deal.

As of now, nobody has been charged in Martinez’s murder.
