DALLAS -- Angel Sanches told Dallas police that he is an "accomplice" but did not kill his young cousin after the little girl's body "was found hanging in a closet by a shirt around her neck," according to his arrest warrant obtained by News 8.
after agreeing to speak to detectives at Dallas police headquarters.
He faces a charge of capital murder for the death of Katharine Gonzalez, his five-year-old cousin.
The little girl's body was found Sunday afternoon in a vacant unit at Sontera Palms Apartments on Royal Lane in Lake Highlands. She was staying with her uncle as her parents were at work.
A witness, Freddie Washington, told detectives that he unknowingly witnessed Sanches lure Gonzalez into the apartment where her body was discovered.
"He kept telling her to 'Come on, come on,' like come home or something," Washington told News 8. "I think he waited for me to leave around the corner and then took her into the vacant apartment."
But Sanches denied to detectives he harmed the girl, according to the warrant, and instead blamed someone he only identified as "Carlos." Sanches said "he was taken at gunpoint by a person only identified as 'Carlos' into the vacant apartment" where Gonzalez's body was later found, the warrant said. Sanches said his young cousin followed him and "Carlos" inside.
Sanches added that "he heard the juvenile complainant begin to cry," the warrant said. "He explained that he then heard the door close and he exited the apartment to see that the neighbors had begun searching for the juvenile. He also explained that he is an 'accomplice' but did not see the juvenile in the apartment after he exited the closet."
After an exhaustive search by neighbors and police, officers found the girl's body inside a vacant apartment "hanging in a closet by a shirt around her neck," the warrant explained.
Investigators took mouth swabs and fingernail clippings from Sanches to compare to DNA at the scene.
Though charged with capital murder, Sanches is not eligible for the death penalty in Texas since he is 17. Monday night, a judge set Sanches' bond at $1,000,000.
Dallas police said he is an undocumented immigrant who has lived in the U.S. for six months to a year.
There has got to be a lot more to this story.
Of course there is more to this story.
Sanches is a liar.
“unaccompanied-alien-child”-killer PING
Illegal aliens are raping their way through the children of America. And Republican leaders do nothing.
Yeah. If The Feds would enforce immigration laws, the little girl might still be alive.
We’ve seen this before. You have a sick, twisted 17 year old who killed a younger family member. Now he’s trying to cover it up. American kids have done it too. There is evil everywhere.
17, to her 8, rape is a very high possibility. Forensics will tell that story and DNA. They are just beginning to dig into the story at this time.
I am asking those who believe in justice after all due process is done and it has been both state and federal to send this story VIRAL!
They knocked on doors all over looking for what was thought to be a missing child, this was way before Amber Alerts. Nikki’s brothers played with my boys. Her mom and I are friends, she herself has had 1 mental break down, and is in fragile health now.
Ashley Nichole ‘Nikki’ Read, age 8, RAPED and KILLED by david keen. 24 yrs ago. He has been on TN Death Row for 20 yrs. ALL State and Federal Appeals are run out, DNA proved he raped her, he confessed he both raped and strangled her to death with her own shoe laces. Yet TN Gov Bill Halsam (RINO) refuses to set an execution date or sign the execution warrant.
Nikki was raped, strangled with her own Shoelaces, and thrown in the river barely still alive, where she finally drown to death. 24 Yrs of waiting for Justice, is obscene.
Tell TN Governor to do his Constitutional Duty, that 2 juries decided was the right course of action. Death Penalty.

I have said before that I think he is a full blown psychopath. It would be useless and even dangerous to put him in an insane asylum. He may even be too dangerous to allow into the general population of a maximum security prison.
So his conclusion will be to get a private cell, away from other prisoners by two chain link fences, and to do everything by himself, with armed guards.
