On May 13, 2010, a woman in Malaga was declared dead and her information – including full name and date of birth – match Lezcano’s exactly. This caused their Social Security information to clash and Lezcano was subsequently declared deceased.

She also confirmed her mother’s social security and date of birth. “'Look,' my daughter told them, 'that person is my mother and she is here right next to me,'” Escudero said.
