A Tarrant County jury
sentenced convicted killer Hector Acosta to the death penalty for the September
2017 murders of Erick Zelaya and 17-year-old Iris Chirinos in Arlington.
Acosta, a
self-proclaimed sicario (“hitman”) for the Cartel Del Noreste shot his
then-roommate Zelaya and his girlfriend Chirinos in their sleep, before
mutilating their bodies with a machete and two-by-four. He decapitated Zelaya,
and after dumping the bodies in a shallow grave in his backyard, he rode a
bicycle through the neighborhood to a walking trail a few blocks away where he
left Zelaya’s head along with a sign threatening future violence. Acosta
claimed to have killed the couple in retaliation for a past drive-by incident
in which he believed Zelaya had been a participant.
During the punishment
phase of the trial, the prosecution introduced evidence of another capital
murder Acosta was believed to have committed in a Fort Worth house. In July
2017, Acosta and accomplices bound and viciously beat Triston Algiene while
robbing him. After Algiene gave them the wrong PIN number for his bank account,
he was shot to death. Acosta then cut his body in half, buried him under the
house and covered his body with cement. Arlington Police Detective Grant Gildon
received information about this murder and informed Fort Worth Police, who
discovered the body after digging up the concrete slab. The hard work of
Gildon, fellow Arlington PD Detective Michael Barakat and Fort Worth Police
Detectives Jerry Cedillo and Ernie Pate was instrumental in bringing Acosta to
justice.
“Have you ever
knowingly in your life sat in the room with a more dangerous person?” lead
prosecutor Kevin Rousseau asked the jury in closing arguments for the
punishment phase. “He can’t follow the rules of a cartel, but you are expected
to believe he’ll follow the rules of a prison warden? He is extraordinarily
violent. He deals in terror. It’s his job.”
A native of Monterrey,
Mexico, Acosta allegedly showed an interest in gang life from as early as age
7. He participated in multiple gangs in both Mexico and Houston before joining
the Cartel Del Noreste for which he claimed to have performed kidnappings,
tortures and other murders. Evidence was presented that while being held in the
jail awaiting trial, Acosta attempted to start a drug trafficking operation.
“Acosta is not a
product of a bad environment,” said prosecutor Tim Rodgers. “He is the bad
element in his environment. That’s what he is and what he wants to be.”
Jurors deliberated for
just over four hours before sentencing Acosta to the death penalty.
“Some people can get
better. Some are just bad,” said Rodgers.
Woah
ReplyDeleteGlad this MF got caught, bringing crime from Mexico, that's the last thing we need in America. To bad his 1st victim did not have a gun to kill the criminal before he got killed. This was a true bad hombres, Texas honors death penalty.
ReplyDeleteMexico is part of America. North America
DeleteSo what’s the difference if an American does a similar crime that is similar to what Mexican crime is?? A crime is a crime, doesn’t matter what country your from!
Delete3:23 many, too many american perros commit crimes in Mexico and all over the world, the US government will not testify or allow them brought to trial, even if they are mexicans like former presidents fox, zedillo, fecal, salinas de gortari or epn...
Deletedo not even think about it.
One rabid animal down, thousands more to go!
ReplyDeleteHopefully all those damn rabid animals get caught and get taken down!
DeleteHere is more info about these cases

That means sentence will go on appeal for 30 years
ReplyDeletenot in texas
DeleteNo it’s not California Texas actually excites their death row inmates faster than California
DeleteNot in texas buddy
DeleteBasically! Unless he denies the appeals
DeleteI promise anyone who beheads someone here in the US will never get out of prison.
DeleteNo texas does them in pretty quickly compared to other states.hell they dont even get a last meal request anymore in texas.
DeleteTexas does not execute right away, It takes at least a decade. When you are sentenced to death your case automatically goes into appeals. Average time on death row in Texas is 10 years. I've studied the Texas Death Row long enough to know they don't execute right away. I have a friend who is on death row and awaiting his death, His name is John Allen Rubio and He has been on DR since 2004 for killing his children in March 2003
DeleteThis guy needed hugs and kisses when he was little. Where was amlo when he needed him?
ReplyDelete😂😂😂😂😂😂
DeleteHahaha very funny.
Delete10;05 AMLO was prolly making you bacon with yer momma when this guy was washing car windshields in Nuevo Laredo mx alreddy.
DeleteBest comment ever on BB...
DeleteWe don't want hard core sicarios on US soil, they make the hard working Mexicans look bad. This guy was nothing but bad news.
ReplyDeleteAGREE
DeleteAnd what makes you think the US don't have these people already?
DeleteCriminal organizations operate with henchmen. Look at our US prison population (exceeding all other countries).
Along with those who are legitimate for doing so.
I definitely agree with you, OP! This trash makes all the hardworking, good hearted Mexicans look bad. One bad Apple doesn't spoil the bunch.
DeleteExactly
DeleteWow! So go out and catch them for the cops since you don’t want them here!
DeleteAmazing! Lo descuartizan a ese mugroso?
ReplyDeleteOne on one no weapons only hands In a cell to death I seen guys fold like tables when the punches and kicks ain't stoping ex Gafe martial artist boy you ain't brave or tuff anybody is bad with a weapon and we say the the size of the weapon is the size of fear

Bring him to our Beloved L.A county Men's Central Jail. Just another fish in this Ocean. I think he wouldn't get outta hand here. They will Eat him alive.
ReplyDeletethat's not the work of a sicario. that's the work of an emotional psychopath, not a trained killer who does it as a profession. real sicarios would piss on this guy
ReplyDeleteMexican sicarios in the US basically kill people they know. The victims might not be saints. By contrast, male members of the majority demographic in the US (rhymes with blight), will kill innocent children, old people, teens. This guy should be put down, but keep things in perspective.
ReplyDeleteYeah they're two different versions of evil
Delete202 no shit Sherlock but this is a site talking bout the Mexican drug war. Keep that in perspective
DeleteJames Brown, u sound ***** (rhymes with wack and starts with bl). Pendejo. Since when is it ok on BB forum to be racist.
DeleteReally? Mexican sicarios kill people they know. I know family members that have killed people they know. You make no sense!
DeleteJamesBrown, after reading your statements, I realize that I don't agree with most of them. Therefore I'm going to address each point that you've made.
Delete"Mexican sicarios in the US basically kill people they know."
You're acting like this is a general rule of thumb. There is no widespread evidence to that points to a personal connection between various incidents regarding sicarios and their victims on U.S. soil. An example of this is Juan Guerrero Chapa, a former Southlake, Texas resident with past ties to elements of the Gulf Cartel, and the sicarios who shot him.
"By contrast, male members of the majority demographic in the US (rhymes with blight), will kill innocent children, old people, teens."
This is, by far, your most inaccurate (and ignorant) statement. While there are many cases of mass shooters being white, you're failing to acknowledge the existence of mass shooters who weren't white. Again, I'll list some examples.
The perpetrator of the Virginia Tech shooting was a Korean immigrant named Seung-Hui Cho.
The Appalachian School of Law shooting was initiated by a former student and Nigerian immigrant Peter Odighizuwa.
The Los Angeles International Airport shooting was committed by an Egyptian national named Hesham Mohamed Hadayet.
The D.C. Sniper Attacks were carried out by two African-Americans named Lee Boyd Malvo and John Allen Muhammad.
The Red Lake Indian Reservation shooting was done by a 16 year-old Native American student named Jeffrey James Weiss.
A latino named Dominick Sergio Maldonado was responsible for the Tacoma Mall shooting.
The Washington Naval Yard shooter? African-American.
The 2009 Fort Hood shooter? Palestinian descent.
The 2014 Fort Hood shooter? Puerto Rican immigrant.
The San Bernadino shooters? Syed Rizwan Farook was of Pakistani descent. His wife was Pakistani from Saudi Arabia.
The Orlando Nightclub shooter? Afghani descent.
I could go on, but you probably get the idea by now. My point is that assholes come in all colors.
"This guy should be put down..."
This is the only part of what you stated that I actually agree with. Torture this pinche animal until he points to his friends, then send him screaming into Hell.
"...but keep things in perspective."
At this point in time your perspective seems to be skewed.
Mr. Brown, what you need to do is stop listening to putos like Don Lemon and Jorge Ramos when they starting crying "racism". After that, you need to start doing some of your own research into the topics that you're planning to comment on.
7:48 the drug trafficking has spread to all the american continent and well beyond, you should keep that perspective and stop advising Sherlock and Holmes, cheekspirito
DeleteWhen was the CDN formed? This happened recently.
ReplyDeletethis will happens to anyone no matter race color or anything , if you dealing drugs this will be you fate , anywhere is a fact
ReplyDeleteHaha...dude left a manta in Arlington....jajaja...next there will sicario convoys in Boise...
ReplyDeletethis shit is real idk why you think cartel shit only happens in mexico
DeleteProtecting el mero Norte
DeleteWrong side of the border and the worst state possible to do it in.
ReplyDeleteBest possible state because of the consequences...
DeleteThis guy is a cartel sicario "wanna-be" claiming to be part of mexico's poorest cartel.. I'm willing to bet that he is not cartel related at all.. at best he's some street gangster punk kid that committed horrendous crimes in order to prove himself cold hearted.. are cartels members operating in the US? you bet your ass they are.. but cartels in the states keep a low profile while still maintaining there ruthlesness, they will not have loud-mouth attention seeking POS like this guy running cartel operations in the US because they would be squashed immediately by law enforcement, the main goal of a cartel is to run a business, if this guy were cartel connected he'd be taken across the border and used as cannon fodder at best..only michoacanos run sloppy like that
ReplyDeleteYeah the cdn are shit but the fact that they have nuevo laredo is a gold mine if you can work it. Thats why beltran wanted it and chapo wanted it. That's the main reason they have endured. Cdn cant be the brokest disorganized group in mexico. All cartels or groups that are in the border got a advantage on the rest.
DeleteJuarez and Tijuana are the REAL goldmines, when it comes to drug trafficking due to tunnels.. tamaulipas does have upperhand when it comes to human smuggling, too bad you can't build a tunnel under the Rio Grande
