EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – Mexican officials have released additional information on a femicide suspect expelled by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last week in Nogales, Arizona.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) agents on Sept. 18 handed over Caleb Aragon Venegas, 29, to Mexican authorities at the Dennis DeConcini Port of Entry in Nogales.
CBP arrested Aragon near Lukeville in April 2024 for being in the country illegally. But it wasn’t until Sept. 8, 2025, that an immigration judge ordered him removed from the United States as a criminal alien.
The Sonora Attorney General’s Office said state police officers took custody of Aragon in Nogales and are working with the Attorney General’s Office in Puebla, where he is wanted in connection to a May 9, 2021, homicide in Mihuacan, Puebla.
On that day, Aragon allegedly drove a 2013 Chevrolet Spark to a motel and compelled Cinthia Itzel N. to get out of the car and follow him. The woman tried to walk away, was caught and allegedly physically assaulted by the suspect, Mexican authorities reported.
Cinthia Itzel’s body was found later in a field in Atlixco, Puebla. The body showed signs of facial and head trauma.
Aragon remained jailed in the state capital of Hermosillo but was expected to be extradited to Puebla this week, the AG’s Office said.
