In Texas, a supervisory Border Patrol agent has been arrested for murder after authorities say he confessed to killing four women. Agent Juan David Ortiz was arrested after a fifth woman narrowly escaped murder and alerted authorities. Officials say Agent Ortiz was targeting women sex workers. He has worked as a Border Patrol agent for 10 years and is a U.S. Navy veteran. This is Webb County District Attorney Isidro Alaniz.

Isidro Alaniz: “The evidence collected by the law enforcement investigators indicates that there’s probable cause to believe that this individual is responsible for this series of murders, which I would qualify as a serial murder that we have. So, we will be looking at what charges to put on him, potentially four charges of murder and aggravated kidnapping.”
