Federal agents arrested four Mexican men in Texas for the deaths of 53 illegal immigrants who died after being abandoned in an overheated tractor-trailer in San Antonio last summer.
The departments of Justice and Homeland Security announced Tuesday, exactly one year to the day of the tragedy, that four individuals had been indicted on charges of their roles in a human smuggling operation that led to the deaths of 53 people and left 12 others injured. The four men were taken into custody during law enforcement operations in San Antonio, Houston, and Marshall, Texas, earlier in the day.
The men indicted were identified in court documents as Riley Covarrubias-Ponce, aka Rrili and Rilay, 30; Felipe Orduna-Torres, aka Cholo, Chuequito/Chuekito, and Negro, 28; Luis Alberto Rivera-Leal, aka Cowboy, 37; and Armando Gonzales-Ortega, aka El Don and Don Gon, 53. The indictment alleged that all four men were involved in cross-border smuggling operations of children and adults from Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico to the U.S. between December 2021 and June 2022.
