Police say 2015 murder suspect -- now booked in Salt Lake County Jail -- was extradited from Mexico, where he was arrested in May
WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah — Police confirmed on Monday that they had extradited Francisco Jesus Huerta-Martinez to Utah from Mexico after he was initially taken into custody there earlier this year.
West Valley City Police said investigators exhausted leads into Huerta-Martinez’s whereabouts and the case went cold in 2019. Earlier this year, new investigators learned new information about his location and were able to take him into custody in Mexico City in May. Rogers says the movement on this case is a big win for local law enforcement, as well as the U.S. Marshals Service.
Members of Utah’s Cold Case Coalition agreed that this is a great get for law enforcement, but it also sends a message to the community.
