Mexico Intervenes in Case of Minor Murdered by US Police Agent
Mexico, May 12 (Prensa Latina) The Mexican Government presented an Amicus Curiae brief to a US court of appeals about the case of a Mexican minor murdered by a US police agent, according to reports released today.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) reported that the government of Mexico filed an Amicus Curiae brief to the Federal Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, based in San Francisco, California.
This way the Mexican authorities intervene in the case of the minor Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez, killed in 2012 by a Border Patrol agent, who shot him dead from US territory.
With his action, Mexico supports the right of the mother to demand compensation for the tragic death of his son. Currently, the agent responsible for the minor's death is being prosecuted in the United States, said a statement from the SRE.
