Found near what was previously named Cowboy Stadium in Arlington. I can affirm that it's not located in a classy neighborhood. Rather the opposite, I'm afraid.

Detectives say the male victim's severed head was found just after 2:30 p.m. Saturday in a wooded area near a creek along Truman Street, near Sanford Street.

A note reading "La Raza Se Restreta y Faltan 4" was found nearby, according to an arrest warrant. The Star-Telegram reports that loosely translated, the message reads, "The race, or group, must be respected and there’s only four left.”

On Tuesday police told WFAA that the rest of the man's body, along with the body of a woman, had been discovered together in a shallow grave in the backyard of a home at 202 Burton Street, a few blocks away from the first scene, Monday afternoon.

Mariano Sanchez, 18, has been arrested and charged with murder, warrants reveal. He's currently being held on a burglary warrant out of Tarrant County and is charged with possessing a controlled substance in Arlington.

An arrest warrant reveals that Sanchez was arrested for a different crime, but told officers he had information about the remains that were found.

He told investigators that a man named "Cholo" had been threatening him over money, and that Cholo and a man named "Diablo" came to his house on Friday, but he didn't answer the door, the arrest warrant states.

Sanchez says he was then ordered by Cholo to go to his house on Burton Street or be killed. Sanchez says he went to the house and found a man dead in the living room. He identified him as Diablo by his clothes, the warrant states.

Sanchez says he left, but then returned when Cholo called and ordered him to come back. The arrest warrant reveals that Sanchez arrived back at the home on Burton, and went to the backyard where Cholo was digging a hole.

Diablo had moved to Texas from El Salvador and was living with Cholo. He had a girlfriend who was about 17, the warrant reveals.

A witness told Arlington PD that Sanchez and a man were overheard talking about how Diablo burglarized Sanchez's apartment, then he left because he needed to record a murder. Another witness said Sanchez told her he was forced to cut off Diablo's arms, the warrant states.

Other witnesses told APD that Cholo was showing pictures of the crime scene on his phone to people, and said he admitted to killing Diablo and his girlfriend.

A murder arrest warrant has been issued for the man believed to be Cholo, Hector Acosta-Ojeda, 28.

He's considered armed and dangerous, APD says, He's 5'8" and 190 pounds, and has a tattoo on his arm reading "el mas odiado," which translates as "the most hated," according to the Star-Telegram.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (817) 575-8823.
 
Are these those dreamers everyone is talking about.
A fraction there of, yes. Assuming they are registered as childhood arrivals.

The first generation is so happy to be here. They compare to where they were and see opportunities, the chance to work 2 1/2 crap jobs and send their kids to college.

The second generation is Americanized, they don't see janitorial work and bussing tables as an opportunity, so a fraction want to take their piece of the pie.

FORT WORTH Two men, including one already charged in the gruesome slayings of a couple found buried in a shallow grave in September in Arlington, were indicted Thursday in connection with the fatal shooting of another man whose body was found buried under the foundation of a Fort Worth home.

Triston Ray Algiene had been reported missing by his family in early July.

The 34-year-old man's body — cut in half and concealed under a repair patch in the home's foundation — was found Oct. 3 inside a vacant home in the 6400 block of Woodway Drive in southwest Fort Worth.

On Thursday, a Tarrant County grand jury indicted Hector “Cholo” Acosta, 28, and Felipe Eduardo Ortiz, 29, on capital murder charges in connection with Algiene’s robbery and death.

Acosta [....] had already been indicted in September on a capital murder charge in the Arlington fatal shootings of Erick “Diablo” Zelaya and Zelaya's 17-year-old girlfriend, Iris Chirinos.

Zelaya’s severed head was found Sept. 2 near a man-made walking trail not far from AT&T Stadium. Near the head, police found a sign that read “La Raza Se Resreta y Faltan 4” which, loosely translated, appears to mean, “The race, or group, must be respected and there’s only four left.”
[....]
Ironically, police believe the two victims in the Arlington case — Zelaya and Chrinos — both played roles in the July robbery and fatally shooting of Algiene.
[....]
Algiene had apparently gone to the Woodway house on July 3 for what he was believed was a drug transaction. At that time, Acosta and Ortiz had been renting bedrooms at the Woodway house.

But investigators believe Acosta, Ortiz, Zelaya and Chirinos were actually planning to rob Algiene.

Once there, Algiene was tied up, beaten and forced to give the PIN number to his debit card. When Zelaya and Chirinos went to withdraw money from the card, however, they found the PIN didn't work and alerted Acosta, sources say.

Acosta became upset and shot Algiene in the head, sources say.
[....]
then dug a hole in the bedroom's foundation, where they apparently buried Algiene after first cutting his body in two.

That same day, police believe Acosta was pulled over by Arlington police while driving Algiene's Toyota Corolla but identified himself as Ortiz. As a result, Ortiz was issued a citation.

Acosta reportedly later sold Algiene's car, the source said.
[....]
Arlington police were continuing their investigation into the double homicide in October when they received information that a missing man had been killed inside the Woodway home in Fort Worth in July.

The house, vacant and up for sale when Fort Worth police went to investigate the information, had been remodeled with new flooring and carpeting.

Fort Worth police and officials used jackhammers and shovels to recover Algiene’s body, which was discovered in a bedroom under a repair patch in the foundation.

Heavily decomposed, the body still had rope and duct tape tied around the head area when found, sources say.

Algiene’s identity was only recently confirmed through DNA tests.

Acosta remains in the Tarrant County Jail with bail set at $1 million in the Arlington capital murder case.
[....]
Court records show Sanchez-Pina was indicted in September on a lesser charge of tampering with evidence for allegedly helping to bury Zelaya's body. He remains held in Tarrant County Jail with bail set at $50,000 in the case.

Ortiz, Acosta's co-defendant in the Fort Worth case, has been in Tarrant County Jail since August, when he was arrested by Arlington police and charged with evading arrest. According to an Arlington police report, Ortiz had been a suspect in a hit-and-run when he fled a traffic stop by an Arlington officer, then wrecked and tried to run from officers on foot.

Ortiz is also being held without bond for parole violation, jail records show.

Tarrant County court records show Ortiz had pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in 2010 for stabbing a man in exchange for a four-year prison sentence. Since that time, he's had convictions for evading arrest and driving while intoxicated, records show.

A jury has found a Texas man guilty of capital murder in the execution killing and beheading of his roommate, and the fatal shooting of the victim's 17-year-old girlfriend as she tried to run for her life.

The Tarrant County jury deliberated for more than five hours on Tuesday before finding Hector Acosta-Ojeda guilty of capital murder in the September 2017 killings of Erick 'Diablo' Zelaya and Iris Chirinos.

Prosecutors will seek the death penalty when testimony for the sentencing begins on Wednesday.

If a jury can't agree on capital punishment, the 30-year-old Acosta-Ojeda, who goes by the moniker 'El Cholo,' would receive a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without parole.

Acosta-Ojeda had pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.

His defense lawyers argued that the prosecutors had failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that their client was the killer.

A Texas man was sentenced to death for the 2017 slayings of his roommate, who was beheaded, and the roommate’s 17-year-old girlfriend.

A jury sentenced Hector Acosta-Ojeda, who prosecutors said was a self-proclaimed hit man for a Mexican drug cartel. Acosta-Ojeda was found guilty last week of capital murder in the killings in Arlington of Erick Zelaya and Iris Chirinos.

Prosecutors say Acosta-Ojeda shot them and then mutilated their bodies before placing them in a shallow grave in his backyard and leaving Zelaya’s head on a nearby walking trail.
Defense attorneys asked for a life sentence, saying Acosta-Ojeda grew up surrounded by violence and a brain injury may have affected him.
