The Cameron County District Attorney Luis V. Saenz told the Texas Tribune that the jury found no probable cause to move forward in criminal charges against the ICE agent. Attorneys for Martinez’s mother, Rachel Reyes, called the jury’s move “devastating” and questioned what information they were given about the March 2025 shooting.
“We do not know what video evidence they were shown, if any,” Reyes’ attorneys said Thursday. “We do not know if they were shown any statement from eyewitness Joshua Orta, who was clear in a thorough firsthand statement that Ruben’s car was moving slowly and did not hit anyone.”
Orta, 25, died Saturday in a single-car crash in San Antonio
There were three other people in the car, the other three people survived, and the witness wasn’t even the one driving. They left a bar at like 1AM, and were driving home. The driver lost control when exiting the highway. It’s most likely a case of drunk driving ending in a crash. There are enough conspiracy theories, please stop trying to turn this into another one.
