Unlike the two previous years when observances were held honoring the memory of Amancio Corrales, this year authorities have a suspect in custody in connection with the slaying of the female impersonator.

“Of course we are extremely pleased, but this year is going to be a little more low key,” said Michael H. Baughman, Amancio Project founder and media liaison for Corrales’ family. “This year is geared to be smaller and more somber. We have to be more careful because there is a suspect in custody.”
