The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office has identified the suspect as Jose Landaeta Solano, who was arrested after returning to the scene of the gruesome slaying.
Castro’s family told ABC7 that the 33-year-old suspect is the father of her one-year-old daughter and told the news channel that he is a diagnosed schizophrenic.
Law enforcement records of the incident note that the incident occurred just before noon, when police began receiving calls about “a 25-year-old female... head was cut off by a sword.”
Castro's grandmother, Danielle Gannon, met Noyes outside her home in Vallejo on Friday.
Gannon: "I'm vaccinated and boosted and everything so you're safe. (hugs) I don't know how to do this."
Noyes: "I'm so sorry."
She invited Noyes inside to meet her son, Marty Castro - the father of the victim in Thursday's beheading.
Castro: "She was an amazing girl."
Gannon: "She was an amazing woman, very stubborn, determined to raise her daughters on her own."
Karina Castro was 27 years old, attended Menlo-Atherton High School, got her GED, and worked as a Door Dash driver. She left behind 7-year-old and 1-year-old girls.Karina Castro
