Born in Camp Pendleton and raised in San Antonio to a Mexican mother and a father who is a distinguished US Marine veteran. He was the youngest of 4 kids. He has two older sisters and an older brother. He was also an uncle.

He was known as a jokester and a person who would lit up the room, and not someone known to be a part of anything nefarious or dark in nature.

He was a sophomore in high school and had joined the ROTC.

Blue Whale Game Suicide

On the Saturday morning of July 8th, 2017, according to the Blue Game Challenge, Isaiah arrived at the last stage, which apparently gives instructions to the gamer to kill themselves - he was found hanged inside of his closet.

Near Isaiah there was also his cellphone propped up against a shoe live streaming the incident.

[1]

According to investigators and school administrators who expressed the dangers of the game, it is believed that Isaiah was receiving instructions and tasks by predators of the online game.

His sister and father have come out to speak against the game and the danger that it brings.

His family and friends created a GoFundMe account to help pay for his funeral costs.
