On May 25, 1995, after several meetings, Doorbal killed Griga during a combat at his house. Krisztina Furton, Griga's girlfriend, was also on the residence speaking to Lugo in a separate room to Doorbal and Griga. At this meeting, Lugo and Doorbal posed as severe enterprise males, providing Griga funding opportunities. Jorge Delgado and Marc Schiller had been business partners since about 1991, and Schiller trusted Delgado a lot that Delgado knew the alarm code and layout of Schiller's dwelling. In 1991, Lugo had been arrested and plead responsible to fraud, serving a fifteen-month sentence along with a three-12 months federal probation interval. After witnessing her accomplice murdered, she was injected with Rompun - a horse tranquilliser - by Lugo. The gang began to try to extract info from Furton relating to the codes which might grant entry into Griga's dwelling, whilst continuing to inject her with Rompun. Finally, the gang determined they'd kill Schiller with a 2 million dollars MetLife Insurance coverage designated to Lugo's ex-wife Lillian Torres as the brand new beneficiary. According to Lugo, businessman Marc Schiller had stolen $100,000 from him and $200,000 from one other gym member named Jorge Delgado.
