Homero Zamorano Jr is in custody with three other suspects in case of deaths of at least 53 migrants near San Antonio

in connection with the discovery of the bodies in an industrial area of south-west San Antonio on Monday night.

Zamorano’s arrest prompted agents to comb through his texts, finding he had sent messages to Martinez before and after the discovery of the dead migrants. A confidential informant told agents of an alleged conversation with Martinez, investigators wrote in court documents filed under oath. During that conversation, Martinez allegedly identified Zamorano as the driver and said he “was unaware the air conditioning unit stopped working and was the reason why the [passengers] died”.
