Berenice “N,” alias “La China”—a former member of the now-disbanded Tamaulipas State Police—has been bound over for trial on charges of aggravated homicide, abuse of authority, and offenses committed while performing administrative duties.
The Tamaulipas State Attorney General’s Office (FGJET) reported that a presiding judge issued the ruling after evaluating the arguments and evidence presented by the public prosecutor.
According to the ruling, there is probable cause to believe the defendant was involved in the events that took place in January 2021 in Camargo, Tamaulipas, which resulted in the deaths of 19 migrants of various nationalities.
The judicial authority also set a six-month deadline for the conclusion of the supplementary investigation, allowing the involved parties to continue with the necessary legal proceedings.
