A teenager who was first the subject of an AMBER Alert is now behind bars accused of murder.
"Their life is already ruined. You took somebody’s life. At this point, you have nothing else to lose. You didn’t gain anything from this situation," said Veronica Lopez, Pena's girlfriend. Following the discovery of Pena's body, Garland Police told NBC 5 that Navarro and Martinez were both persons of interest in Pena's death and that warrants for murder were being obtained for both of them.
"The reason why this happened, we've yet to totally determine that. We hope to get more when we talk to Natalie to see exactly what was going on if these persons knew each other, if they had a relationship if there was a falling out," said Garland Police Lieutenant Richard Moldonado."He was very kind, and he was too sweet, and I guess he was too trusting of everyone, and trying to help everybody," Lopez said.The investigation into Pena's murder is ongoing. Anyone with information on Martinez's location or Pena's murder is encouraged to call the Garland Police at 972-485-4840. Tips may also be submitted anonymously to Garland Crime Stoppers at 972-272-8477 orTEXAS STATEWIDE ALERT PROGRAMS There are eight kinds of alerts that can be issued for missing or endangered people in Texas.
