The illegal migrant suspected of killing a 25-year-old Michigan woman was deported during the Trump administration and subsequently re-entered the country again illegally.
Brandon Ortiz-Vite, 25, is alleged to have shot and killed Ruby Garcia, 25, whose body was left at the side of highway U.S. 131 in downtown Grand Rapids on Friday night.
Michigan State Police are still carrying out an investigation into her death but believe she may have been the victim of a car-jacking at around 11:38pm on Friday.
Ortiz-Vite is awaiting arraignment on an open murder charge. He was booked on Sunday and is expected to be arraigned on Tuesday.
The accused is facing one count each of homicide/open murder, carjacking, felony firearm, illegally carrying a concealed weapon, operating while intoxicated and driving on a suspended or revoked license, records show, The Midwesterner reports.
Fox News Digital reports that the alleged killer was previously 'arrested by Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Detroit on Aug. 31, 2020, and served a notice to appear.
'He was ordered removed by an immigration judge with the Justice Department’s Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR) Sept. 24, 2020, and was removed to Mexico Sept. 29, 2020,' according to an ICE spokesperson.
'At an unknown date and location Ortiz-Vite reentered the United States without inspection by an immigration official.'
Following his arrest for murder last week, a detainer has been lodged against the illegal migrant from Mexico.
Garcia's family are now helping to raise funds for her funeral and have set up a GoFundMe page that has raised $15,000.
Ruby's sister, Mavi Garcia, paid tribute to her sibling, describing her as 'a great person all around.'
'She would brighten up the room with her beautiful smile and laugh,' Garcia wrote on Facebook. 'She loved to travel, was dedicated to her work and enjoyed being with her family on her free time.
'She was a great daughter, sister, aunt and friend. She will be remembered as being full of life and laughter, those who were around her would know she was silly and made everyone laugh,' Garcia said.
'Her loss has impacted the lives of many people. Her life was taken too soon. She deserved to live life, travel the world, have kids and follow her dreams.
'She loved to travel … she had so many plans this year on traveling,' Garcia went on. 'I feel like her motivation in life were my mother and her nieces and nephews. She definitely was a strong person.'
It is not clear what, if any relationship existed between Ruby and Ortiz-Vite, who is originally from Puebla, Mexico.
'I prefer not to give out information on their relationship,' Mavi Garcia stated. 'He is currently in custody that's all we know as of right now and he is/was here illegally.'
'I can't thank you all enough for the big help the Garcia family is receiving in these tough times,' Garcia posted to Facebook.
