Ruben

Jessica Jones
Ruben was a young man who lived in New York City, New York with his sister, Pam. He lived in the same apartment complex as Jessica Jones, but on a different floor. Jessica always complained that he could hear the siblings arguing with one another. Ruben was kind-hearted and childlike in his demeanor, suggesting a form of emotional immaturity. He was also in love with Jessica. One day, he came to her apartment to give her some freshly baked pastry, but it was a man named Kilgrave who answered the door. He asked about Jessica's whereabouts and when Kilgrave asked why, he said "Because I'm in love with her". This incensed Kilgrave, who was obsessed with Jessica. He used his mind control powers to force Ruben to slice open his own throat. He then left the body in Jessica's bed for her to find hours later. Upon discovering it, Jones was horrified. She began putting together a plan to trap Kilgrave, but this plan involved her being incarcerated at a supermax prison. To facilitate this, she cut off the head to Ruben's corpse and brought it to the precinct house where she falsely confessed to his murder.
