On Saturday, authorities were reporting they had 38-year-old massacre suspect Francisco Oropesa “surrounded.” The sheriff was expecting a conclusion of some sort shortly. As of Monday, there’s a disappointing update to the brutal killings which happened near Houston, Texas, Friday night. After surrounding a stretch of forest and hounding the fugitive with dogs, police were dismayed to learn that they had surrounded his cell phone. By now, Oropesa could be “anywhere.”
Suspect worth $80,000
Police need your help to catch fugitive massacre suspect Francisco Oropesa because they haven’t got a clue. He was smart enough to ditch his cell phone, leaving the feds nothing to track him with. He even took off his clothes and went for a swim to evade the bloodhounds.
They’re willing to pay $80,000 for the right information. Authorities are telling the public to stay as far from him as they can get if he’s spotted. They may be counting on vigilant citizens to tip them off but don’t want anyone to play superhero. Just call the cops and cash in on the bounty.
The Houston branch of the Federal Bureau of Instigation admits they’re clueless as they search for a suspect who’s been deported at least five times already. FBI special agent in charge James Smith confirms “I can tell you right now, we have zero leads.”
BREAKING: ICE confirms that Francisco Oropesa, the Mexican national accused of fatally shooting 5 of his neighbors in TX, has been deported from the US multiple times. March 2009, Sept. 2009, January 2012, and July 2016. Also has a DUI conviction in Montgomery County, TX in 2012. pic.twitter.com/ftxBhlpPwd

They checked all the Catholic churches and school board meetings, and are camped out on every Q-Anon related message board. Cisco isn’t being mentioned in the chatter or spotted by embedded informants, which frustrates them to no end. They note that they’ll be staking out Mar-a-Lago in case he heads there.
On Friday night, the suspect was drunk and shooting up the front of his house, as usual. The extended family of migrant neighbors from Honduras were used to that. The man of the house approached his neighbor just before midnight asking nicely to please stop shooting because his baby was scared. “I’ll shoot my house if I want,” Francisco declared and went back inside. He got an AR-15 style weapon and proceeded to massacre most of the family. As CNN reports, “We saw him, he was leaving his property and cocked his gun,” the father related. “I told my wife to get inside because he cocked his gun and he might come threaten us. So my wife said, ‘You go inside, I don’t think he will fire at me because I’m a woman, I’ll stay here at the door.‘” She was wrong.
Francisco, a Mexican national who entered America illegally, after being deported four or five times already, “later came to Garcia’s home, shooting his wife, Sonia Argentina Guzman, in the doorway before killing three other adults and Garcia’s son, Daniel Enrique Laso-Guzman.”
Do not approach
The FBI has photos of the fugitive suspect plastered across every screen in America but warn “that he should not be approached.” San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers sighs, “he could be anywhere now.” He left the AR-15 behind at the scene but they’re pretty sure he has another weapon, he certainly had enough of them in his home.
Police report that “they found the victims had been shot ‘almost execution style‘ at close range.” Shot in the head. “Before the deadly confrontation at Garcia’s home, five 911 calls had been made to report the gunman shooting his rifle outdoors, the father said.” Deputies got there as fast as they could, but not fast enough.
According to Mr. Garcia, “One of the people who died saw when my wife fell to the ground. She told me to throw myself out the window because my children were already without a mother. So one of us had to stay alive to take care of them. She was the person who helped me jump out the window.” She didn’t make it.
You know why the Biden Administration “can’t comment” on whether Francisco Oropesa, the man accused of killing 5 people in Texas, is an illegal alien or not.
Admitting he’s an illegal would be an admission that this crime was completely preventable. pic.twitter.com/JevBPEzJIE

“Two people who died were protecting my 2 1/2-year-old daughter and my 1-month-old son. They protected him with a bunch of clothing so the murderer wouldn’t kill him, too. So just imagine what we’re feeling now. It was horrible.” Police thought they had the suspect cornered in the woods but thought wrong. “Authorities had been tracking Oropesa’s cell phone but found it abandoned Saturday along with some clothes, Capers said. Tracking dogs picked up a scent from the items, but the trail vanished” at a body of water.
ICE has the suspect on file as “Francisco Oropesa Perez-Torres,” first removed “by an immigration judge in March 2009.” He comes and goes as he pleases. “At an unknown time and location, Perez-Torres unlawfully reentered the United States, and was apprehended and removed several more times by ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in September 2009, January 2012, and July 2016.”
Laws are for suckers. “Oropesa’s current immigration status is unclear, and it is not known how long he had been in the US since he was last deported.” Of course not.
