An alleged illegal alien was arrested and charged with the murder of a 19-year-old Maryland woman, whose body was found off of Route 50 a week after being reported missing.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) confirmed in a post on X, that Hugo Hernandez-Mendez, 35, “an illegal alien from Guatemala” was charged with first and second-degree murder in the death of Dacara Thompson.
According to officials, Hernandez-Mendez, who is from Guatemala, was in the United States “illegally” and was previously arrested by U.S. Park Police in April “for a DUI case but was released,” WUSA9 News reported.
