Mexican National Deported Four Times Before Alleged Murder of Five Hondurans

Authorities are seeking Francisco Oropeza Perez-Torres, a Mexican citizen aged 38, for allegedly murdering five Honduran migrants in a rural area of Cleveland, Texas. According to the San Jacinto County Sheriff, Greg Capers, Breitbart reports that Oropeza has been deported by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers on four separate occasions, with the most recent deportation taking place in 2016. In March 2009, an immigration judge ordered Oropeza to leave the United States, and he was deported to Mexico later that same month by ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officers.

However, Oropeza illegally returned to the U.S. and was subsequently removed again in September 2009, January 2012, and July 2016. In addition, Oropeza was convicted of driving under the influence in 2012 by a Texas court and sentenced to an undisclosed period of imprisonment.

Five Migrants Killed in Alleged Shooting by Oropeza

The alleged murders of five migrants occurred when one of them complained of Oropeza firing a rifle outside their home shortly before midnight on a Friday night. Of the ten people present at the time of the shooting, five lost their lives. The victims were identified as Julisa Molina Rivera (31), Sonia Argentina Guzman (25), Diana Velazquez Alvarado (21), Jose Jonathan Casarez (18), and Daniel Enrique Laso (8). The eight-year-old boy died at the hospital, while the other four were found dead at the scene.

On Twitter, Texas Governor Greg Abbott initially announced a $50,000, then eventually an $80,000 reward for any information regarding the killer, saying:

I’ve announced a $50K reward for info on the criminal who killed 5 illegal immigrants Friday. Also directed #OperationLoneStar to be on the lookout. I continue working with state & local officials to ensure all available resources are deployed to respond.”

Out of the five individuals who lost their lives, four were illegal immigrants from Honduras. The only exception was Velazquez Alvarado, who was granted a prominent residency status on December 7, 2021.

Authorities Continue to Search for Suspect

A multi-agency task force continues to search for Oropeza, who remains at large. During a Saturday press conference, Sheriff Capers and the FBI announced that they had recovered Oropeza’s cell phone and some discarded clothing, but the suspect remains armed and dangerous. Sheriff Capers stated that they believe they have the murder weapon in their possession, but Oropeza could be armed with a smaller weapon.

The latest reports indicate that the reward for information leading to the capture of Oropeza has been increased to $80,000.

  1. First, let’s be honest: there is no such thing as an illegal immigrant.
    An immigrant is a person who enters our country legally to go through the process of applying for citizenship.
    People who enter our country by illegally crossing our borders are alien INVADERS.
    Since invasion is an act of war, these alien invaders should be shot he minute they are seen climbing on top of our border wall.
    If Francisco Oropeza Perez-Torres had been shot and killed the first time he tried to invade our country, the five Americans he murdered would still be alive.

  2. Shoot the F—-r! He’s murdered people, continues to break the law, Mexico doesn’t do a damn thing and the US doesn’t either. I doubt anyone will miss this piece of garbage!

  3. This happened to a family in Texas, Velazquez Alvarado, who was granted a prominent residency status on December 7, 2021.and this Francisco Oropeza Perez-Torres, a Mexican citizen aged 38 was deported 4 times and not a citizen. We had better change our laws. If your not a citizen of our country YOU HAVE “NO” rights in our country. If you kill some one automatic
    death penalty. We should have bounty hunters make money dead or live bring them in. We have to change the laws in our country because police and federal agencies can’t protect our public.

  4. This is all Lil biden & his uncaring administration’s fault …he let them in & now look what this illegal pig did!!!! He just cares about votes as usual to help with the CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES!! He’s got his security so what does he or any stinkin demorat care???
