More illegals in action

Bond Set At $1 Million For Suspects In Brutal Attack On Central Texas Teenager

(June 29, 2006)—Bonds are $1 million for two illegal immigrants arrested and charged Thursday in connection with a brutal attack on a recent Mexia High School graduate who was run off a rural road, raped, beaten, stabbed and left to die in a ditch.
The victim was in stable condition Thursday in Scott & White Hospital in Temple.
The girl is “very very fortunate to be a survivor,” Limestone County Sheriff Dennis Wilson said Thursday.
Investigators said they have identified three separate crime scenes related to the attack.
A tip from a Mexia resident led authorities to the two men who were charged with aggravated sexual assault and aggravated kidnapping Thursday.
Javier Guzman Martinez, 17, of Mexico was arrested in Limestone County and Noel Darwin Hernandez of Honduras was arrested at a bus station in Waco as he tried to leave the country, Wilson said.
Both men had Mexia addresses, authorities said.
The attack happened late Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning on a rural road near Coolidge.
The attackers evidently intended for their victim to die, but bleeding profusely, the girl somehow made her way to a house a half-mile away where she awakened residents with a faint knock on the front door.
“We want to make sure this young lady knows that she and our family are certainly in our prayers and our thoughts, Wilson said.”
Mexia school officials were shocked by news of the attack.
“The community is devastated because she is such a sweet girl,” Mexia School Board President Don Corbitt told News Ten.
“We don’t understand how anyone could do anything like that to a girl at all, much less someone as sweet as she is.
