Torrealba was last seen Sunday, Oct. 11 at 2 a.m. at Space Night Club, according to several friends.

According to a press release from the Miami-Dade Police Department, an unnamed white male entered a police station at approximately 7 p.m. Oct. 11 to “surrender himself” and inform officers that “there was a deceased person inside the vehicle that he had arrived in.”

Friends say that Torrealba, a freshman at Florida International University, was a “smart girl” who was toying with the idea of becoming a lawyer. According to Saavedra, Torrealba was a hip-hop dancer and cheerleader in high school. “Jackie was such an amazing girl. She always had a smile on her face she was funny, she was a great dancer,” Saavedra told Crimesider in a Monday phone interview.

According to Detective Alvaro Zabaleta, police have been questioning the man since his arrest Sunday night, and as of 9 a.m. Monday, Oct. 12 they had not yet taken his formal statement.
