Suspect in fatal immigrant smuggling crash dies in jail
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas A man suspected of driving a truck involved in a January crash that killed six immigrants has died in jai.
Officials say 25-year-old Santos Guajardo hanged himself yesterday at the Nueces County Jail shortly after guards conducted a security check.
Guajardo was charged last week with transporting illegal immigrants and was scheduled for a federal court hearing this morning.
Officials say Guajardo was driving a pickup truck full of suspected illegal immigrants on January 26th when he crashed into an 18-wheeler. Six people were killed and seven were injured. The victims whom officials were able to identify were from Mexico and Honduras.
The wreck happened about ten miles north of a Border Patrol checkpoint in Falfurrias, which is about 75 miles from the Mexican border.
A jail official says a routine screening of Guajardo on Sunday did not indicate any suicide warnings.Support our FIGHT AGAINST illegal immigration & Amnesty by joining our E-mail Alerts at http://eepurl.com/cktGTn
