Summary
- Angie Morales arrested for capital murder of two teens.
- Victims were shot multiple times in July 2022.
- Instagram messages linked Morales to a robbery plot.
Angie Morales, 21, faces a capital murder charge in Bexar County, Texas, for the deaths of two teenagers in 2022. The victims, Gregorio Ricardo Cordova-Mejia, 19, and Angel Ray Garcia, 15, were discovered on the morning of July 29, 2022, after gunshots were heard. Both had sustained multiple gunshot wounds.
A confidential informant allegedly linked Morales to the homicides, providing details that led to her arrest. Authorities believe Morales used Instagram to arrange a meeting with the teens as part of a plan to rob them. Evidence suggests Cordova-Mejia was messaging Morales shortly before his death.
According to reports, Morales allegedly told the teens she was "stepping out" when they arrived at the meeting location. The teens were then killed by individuals Morales had allegedly conspired with for the robbery. Witnesses reportedly saw two men fleeing the scene. It remains unclear if other individuals have been charged or if Morales has entered a plea.
