A rancher now charged with murder in the case told a dispatcher he found the body of an 'animal' on his property near Nogales, in a reference to the body of a Mexican migrant.

Arizona Daily Star A rancher now charged with murder in the case told a dispatcher he found the body of an"animal" on his property near Nogales, in a reference to a dead Mexican migrant, audio of the call obtained by the Nogales International reveals.

People are also reading… "I only approached the body to make sure that the animal ― it’s not a vegetable or a mineral ― the animal wasn’t alive and it was not alive,” Kelly told the dispatcher in the call, a public record first reported by the Nogales International and then by The Arizona Republic. “It’s very serious, ma’am, and I can’t — I’m not going to talk over the telephone,” Kelly said early on.

In subsequent court testimony, Kelly's defense attorney said Kelly fired a warning shot over the heads of a group of undocumented migrants crossing his property that day.
