ST. MARTINVILLE — St. Martin Parish authorities Thursday arrested four men accused of shooting to death and beheading a Mexican national who had been living in Lafayette.
Three of the alleged killers are illegal immigrants from Mexico and one lives in Youngsville, the St. Martin Parish Sheriff’s Office said in a release issued Friday.
On Sept. 2. a fisherman in the Atchafalaya River found the decapitated body of 27-year-old Mario Lopez, the Sheriff’s Office said. Lopez had been shot several times. He was identified through fingerprints. Officials believe he was murdered on Aug. 31. The victim’s head has not been found.
The three men in the United States illegally were each booked with first-degree murder and second-degree kidnapping. They are Gustavo Acosta, 19, Julio Rodriguez, 22, and Jose Acosta, 34. They are being held without bond.
Youngsville resident Nelson Joseph Rivero, 41, was booked with one-count of accessory after the fact to first-degree murder and one-count second-degree kidnapping. Rivero’s bond has been set at $500,000.
The Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the FBI Task Force assisted in the investigation.
Somewhere there's a sanitation engineer in for a nasty surprise.
If this is a “cultural” thing, I mean, who are we to judge?

Eeeewwww.. indeed.
It's not unusual south of the border.
"At the same time they physically intimidate the press, narco-gangs are also getting craftier about using the media to spread threats against their rivals and send messages to the government. Especially gruesome are the messages left alongside decapitated heads or mutilated corpses by presumed members of Zetas and Pelones gangs against each other and the government. Fueled by revenge and counter-revenge, strong indications exist that the narco wars are escalating beyond simple economic turf battles and acquiring a life of their own. "

Illegal aliens shooting and beheading people....
Nice neighborhood.
Well,...you know. "Just matching willing employers with willing workers."
Isn't that what our fearless leader has told us?

Thankfully El Jefe has done all he can to keep trash like this from getting into the country.
They fired all of the Americans who were rebuilding when the illegals came to town......this is what we get!!
Saddle up boys and girls. We're in for a long ride in this country.
(This collection is not mine. I'm about halfway there...)
I guess there’s more to the vibrant mexican culture enriching our land than great food.
So now Mexicans are into beheading...wonder where that came from ... ;o)
