A crime victims coordinator employed by a district attorney’s office in South Texas<\/a> has been arrested and fired from her role after being caught in a scheme to use a work vehicle to smuggle people into the United States, officials said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bernice Garza was arrested following an investigation by the office of Starr County District Attorney Gocha Allen Ramirez, Homeland Security Investigations, and the Texas Rangers.<\/p>\n

Also arrested were Magali Rosa and Juan Antonio Charles, both 40, Ramirez’s office said. The trio allegedly used a vehicle belonging to the Crime Victim\u2019s Center to transport undocumented immigrants to the Houston area.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They face charges of engaging in conspiracy and human smuggling<\/a>. Charles faces an additional weapons charge.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This investigation is an example of no one being above the law, and our office taking swift action in eliminating public corruption,” the DA’s office said in a statement announcing the arrests.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Victoria County Sheriff\u2019s Office<\/a> said a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse with the emblem of the Starr County District Attorney\u2019s Office was stopped around 12:20 p.m. on Dec. 7. There were five people inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rosa was driving and said she was an employee of the DA’s office. A check by authorities confirmed she had lied, the sheriff’s office said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The Victoria County Sheriff\u2019s Office investigation revealed that the vehicle was assigned to a Crime Victim Coordinator who was an employee of the 229th Judicial District Attorney\u2019s Office,” a sheriff’s news release said. “That person was identified as Bernice Garza.”<\/p>\n

Garza was terminated from the DA’s office. The four migrants in the vehicle were handed over to the U.S. Border Patrol.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
