Texas couple Julissa Ramirez and Nohemi Martinez were tortured, dismembered, and fatally shot in Mexico. The deceased bodies were discovered inside garbage bags on a highway outside Juarez near the border of their El Paso home on Sunday, January 16, 2022.
According to El Diario, their relatives had last seen the couple before officials made the tragic discovery. They were reportedly from Chihuahua and visited El Paso to meet their relatives. Family members later identified their final remains.
Local reports suggest two other women were found dead inside trash bags in Juarez a day after Ramirez and Martinez’s bodies were discovered. Officials are possibly ruling the case as a double homicide.
The latest incident comes in the wake of a series of murders in Ciudad Juarez that left 11 women and more than 50 men dead this year. Although no arrests have been made, authorities are investigating the brutal killings.
As per The Sun, the Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office is taking part in the investigation and Chihuahua Governor Maru Campos has also pledged to punish the guilty.
