Oscar Mosqueda

Oscar Mosqueda — who was dressed in mini-skirt and high heels — was shot to death outside Pasta Amore, in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Cesar Israel Villazano, confessed to police that he shot Oscar Mosqueda, 34, about 2 a.m. on Sunday, July 29, 2007. Villazano stated he killed Oscar after Oscar made an embarrassing sexual advance, but the witness Wesley Rosser told police Oscar died defending a friend.

One bullet hit Oscar in the head; Oscar died later that Sunday at Halifax Medical Center.
