Death of federal informant found this week at LA high school campus remains under investigation

LOS ANGELES — A former federal informant who went missing for a year before he was found dead at an El Sereno high school campus earlier this week appears to have spent the weekend alone at the school before his death, authorities said Friday.

Cleaning crews at Woodrow Wilson High School found Valentin Broeksmit's body just before 7 a.m. on Monday, according to Sgt. Rudy Perez of the Los Angeles School Police Department. He was last seen alive by friends and family on April 6, 2021.

No foul play is suspected, according to authorities. An official cause of death is pending an investigation, along with the coroner's examination and toxicology report, the LAPD said.
