On Sunday, less than 24 hours after the lifeless body of Angela Laudun, 33, was discovered in a remote area, Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Deputies arrested and charged four Mexican nationals with her rape and murder.

According to the sheriff’s office, around 2:00 a.m., Saturday, the woman voluntarily left a Galliano bar with the men, at which time they drove her to a nearby house. Apparently, Laudin became concerned for her safety and tried to leave, but the men held her down and took turns raping her.

At some point, during the ordeal, she was strangled to death.

The men, then allegedly placed the woman’s body in their SUV, eventually dumping her in a heavily wooded area. A few hours later, the body was discovered by a man doing some work on his property.

Gonzalo Portillo Cortes, 20; Esdras Sanchez Garcia, 21; Louis Nava, 28; and Jose Castille Mareno, 23, have all been charged with aggravated rape and first-degree murder.

All four suspects work for Quality Shipyard in Houma, La., and while their employer claims that the men presented valid documents prior to their employment, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on them.

The alleged assailants are Mexican nationals and their interrogations had to be conducted in Spanish. They are currently being held in the Lafourche Parish Detention Center.

Since they are "just here to work", what did they get paid to do this?

THIBODAUX — Prosecutors say they will seek the death penalty against four immigrant workers accused of raping and killing a south Lafourche woman earlier this year.

As they took turns standing before District Judge Walt Lanier of Thibodaux, Mexican nationals Esdras Garcia, 22; Luis Nava, 28; Jose Moreno, 24, and Gonzalo Cortes, 21, showed little visible reaction as a Spanish-speaking interpreter informed them of the Lafourche District Attorney’s Office’s intention.

The four are charged with first-degree murder and aggravated rape in connection with the May 8 death of 33-year-old Angela Laudun on East 93rd Street in Galliano inside a home where they previously did repair work. Prosecutors allege the four men kidnapped Laudun from the Tequila Sunrise bar in Cut Off before raping and choking her and then dumped her body in a wooded area off La. 3235 in Golden Meadow.

The defendants entered not-guilty pleas July 6. They confessed to raping and killing Laudun in interviews with Lafourche sheriff’s detectives May 9, according to an arrest report, but said Laudun willingly left the bar with them to have sex for money — an allegation the woman’s family vehemently denies.

In court papers filed Tuesday, Lafourche District Attorney Cam Morvant II lists three “aggravating circumstancesâ€

i hear the mexican government and consulte officials running to the DA and telling them that they can seek the death penalty in this case.

Cant ya just see this coming?

"Belinda Flores, a representative with the Mexican Consulate in New Orleans, was present at the hearing. Each defendant was given an opportunity to speak briefly with Flores. They were also advised of Article 36 of the Vienna Convention, which applies to their right to speak with members of the Mexican Consulate. "

While they are responsible for breaking laws in our country and are going to be tried in our courts for those crimes.

they are still under the jurisdiction of mexico
and are mexican citizens.
