Estefania Restrepo Valencia, 26, known online as “La Traviesa,” meaning the naughty or mischievous one, was traveling with her former partner.

The couple was reportedly approached by armed men on motorcycles on a busy road who attempted to rob them.

According to her ex-boyfriend, Estefania Restrepo refused to give up her belongings.

As a consequence, she was stabbed multiple times.

The influencer, who had 217,000 followers on one platform and an additional 27,000 on another, suffered injuries to her left shoulder, neck, and hand.

After the incident, her ex-boyfriend drove her to the Las Vegas Clinic in Medellin for medical attention.

Unfortunately, she passed away before she could undergo surgery.

The authorities arrived shortly thereafter to question him about the events.

They later confirmed that the deceased influencer had been stabbed four times, while her companion sustained only minor injuries.

To aid in their investigation, the police seized the victim's mobile phone, as well as two devices belonging to her former partner.

One was a personal phone, and the other was used for his job as a taxi driver.

They also examined his vehicle—a white Mazda 2—and discovered bloodstains on the passenger seat and roof.

The police reviewed CCTV footage from the area to verify the man's account or to uncover any other potential motives.

Security cameras recorded the couple driving south at 8:59 PM toward La Tablaza and later entering Medellin just before 10 PM.

In a surprising turn of events, the victim's family has challenged his version of the story.

Speaking to the Colombian media, her father questioned why nothing was taken during the robbery.

He also wondered why her ex-boyfriend chose to drive to Medellin—approximately six hours away by car—when there was a hospital much closer in the southern part of the Aburra Valley.

A friend of Restrepo Valencia claims he spoke to her just moments before the alleged robbery.

He stated that he could hear Restrepo Valencia either choking or crying.

He also reported hearing a man's voice shouting in the background.

Her family has revealed that Restrepo Valencia had no intention of reconciling with her ex-boyfriend after their breakup.

Despite this, the man readily identified himself to authorities and mentioned that they had recently been in contact after ending a four-year relationship.

Best known for her humorous content, pranks, and online challenges, Restrepo Valencia’s death marks the 93rd reported murder in the Antioquia region this year.

This reflects an increase from the previous year when only 83 people were victims of homicide.

In Caldas, this is the eighth murder of 2025, and the first female victim documented in the municipality this year.

Encouraged by her fans, the police continue to investigate to identify those responsible for the death of the beloved influencer.
