Kuzsak had been out jogging on Feb. 4 when she was spotted by Eleiezer Marquez, a 36-year-old Puerto Rican suspected of killing Kuszak. Marquez allegedly opened his trunk and waited for Kuszak to pass by, and when she did, he grabbed her and threw her in.
Panicked, Kuzsak made a frantic call for help from inside the trunk. She described her assailant's car to an employee at the marina she was near, and said what had happened. The marina employee called 911.
That was about an hour before police found her body thrown off to the side of the road. Kuzsak's throat had been slashed and she was naked from the waist down.
Police were able to locate Marquez because he was still carrying Kuzsak's phone.
More from ABC News:
Investigating officer Arsenio Rodriguez said the FBI used a signal from the victim's cell phone to help locate the suspect. Kuszak's fiance had called the FBI, which turned the case over to local police.
Kuszak, 35, who moved to Savannah, Georgia, from San Francisco about five years ago, arrived Tuesday night in Puerto Rico, where she met up with her fiance and several friends.
"She was looking forward to the rest of her life with her fiance and her unborn baby," her friend Matt Daniel said in a phone interview from Georgia. "I'm just devastated. I don't know who would do something like that."
