    She was acting like a drunken whore and put herself in harms way.

    A California man has been arrested for allegedly murdering a young woman
    whose beaten body was found in an alleyway behind a defunct movie theater
    and the restaurant where she worked.

    Dino Rojas-Moreno, 26, was arrested in Laguna Hills Wednesday on a charge
    of murder in the killing of 27-year-old Tatum Goodwin, the Laguna Beach
    Police Department announced in a press release.

    Rojas-Moreno was identified as the person allegedly responsible for
    Goodwin�s death based on unspecified �information and evidence� obtained
    by the police.

    �Detectives determined this was an isolated incident, and there is no
    further threat to the community,� the agency stated.

    Officials have not commented on a possible motive for the killing, or said whether the suspect and victim knew each other.

    Rojas-Morenos was being held in the Laguna Beach Jail on $1 million bail.

    The suspect�s arrest coincided with a vigil honoring Goodwin, which was
    held Wednesday night in her hometown of San Clemente and was attended by hundreds of family members and friends.

    �The hardest part is she was alone fighting for her life,� Goodwin�s
    mother, Stacy Goodwin-Pitino, told the station KTLA. �You�re helpless. You can�t do anything.�

    Sister Kaylee Goodwin regretted that she was not with Tatum to keep her
    safe.

    �I wasn�t there to protect her,� she said through tears at the vigil. �She didn�t deserve this.�

    Goodwin-Pitino described her slain daughter as �a happy-go-lucky person
    that would give you the shirt off her back.� Others agreed, saying the 27- year-old was a good friend who was beloved in the tight-knit Laguna Beach community.

    A construction worker discovered Goodwin�s body �down in a secluded
    location� near the 200 block of Ocean Avenue around 8:20 a.m. Sunday.

    Police said the body showed signs of trauma consistent with homicide, and detectives found the scene to be �suspicious.�

    Goodwin�s cause of death has not yet been released.

    Goodwin had worked as an assistant manager at Carmelita�s restaurant in
    Laguna Beach for more than 4 years.

    Friends said that after finishing her shift Saturday night, Goodwin joined
    them first at the nearby Hennessey�s Tavern and then at the Marine Room
    bar.

    Her battered body was found hours later just steps away from her place of
    work.
