Authorities have arrested two illegal aliens who have been charged with the murder of a woman who was found dead in a forest in Maryland.
The Charles County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland announced that two Guatemalan nationals have been charged over the death of 23-year-old Lesbia Mileth Ramirez Guerra.
24-year-old Keycy Robinson Alexi Barrera-Rosa was charged with murdering Guerra, his girlfriend.
Barrera-Rosa’s uncle, 37-year-old Rolvin Eduardo Barrera-Barrera, was charged as an accessory.
Deputies said Guerra’s body was found on April 17.
She has been missing since March 31.
Guerra’s body was found lazily buried in a “heavily wooded area” of the forest just outside of Cedarville State Forest in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Officials said Guerra was the mother of two young children.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said its agents arrested Barrera-Rosa on April 5 in La Plata, Maryland.
ICE confirmed that Barrera-Rosa and Barrera-Barrera had both entered the country illegally and are originally from Guatemala.
According to immigration officials, Barrera-Rosa and Barrera-Barrera were apprehended on April 10, 2019, near El Paso, Texas.
They were served notices to appear before a Department of Justice (DOJ) immigration judge at the time.
ICE placed an immigration detainer on Barrera-Barrera with the Charles County Detention Center after he was arrested.
