Blind Albino Killed For His Car

by Earl Morningstarr

Despite being blind due to his albinism, Russian immigrant Raffi Yessayan owned a “pimped” black Nissan sedan with custom rims. Because of his blindness Yessayan had to be chauffeured by fellow members of a street gang he was a involved in in Orange County California.

Police believe that fellow gang member, and supposed friend Ruben Alejandro Oliveros (pictured) executed Yessayan by shooting him in the back of the head so he could steal his car and sell it for parts.

27 year old Oliveros could face life in prison, without the possibility of parole, if he is convicted of first degree murder during a robbery. Six other men have also been charged in connection with the murder, but Oliveros is said to be the man who pulled the trigger of the weapon which killed poor, blind Yessayan.

The slaying took place on the night of 06/06/06, Yessayan was being driven around in his car by Oliveros and two other men, Marco Antonio Charcas-Fernandez and Aurelio Fidencio Saldivar. Following an argument Oliveros pulled the black Nissan sedan over into a parking lot and shot Yessaman twice in the back of the head, the trio then took the car and broke it up to sell as parts. Yessaman’s corpse was discovered the next morning by joggers.

Four other men, one of them Oliveros’ brother, have been charged with being accessories to murder due to helping destroy evidence by dismantling the car.
