跟进:最高面临20年监禁:Houston大陪审团起诉驾车碾伤移民工人的ICE执法人员Morales,控以致命武器加重袭击

Houston——位于德州哈里斯县(Harris County)的休斯顿市,Harris County 地方检察官办公室10月30日(周五)宣布,该县大陪审团当天起诉移民与海关执法局(ICE)执法人员 Mario Alberto Morales(33岁),控以一项以致命武器加重袭击罪,属二级重罪;一旦定罪,他面临2年至20年监禁。这起起诉源于10月10日上午的一场移民执法行动:Morales 驾车追捕时撞倒并碾伤48岁的墨西哥籍建筑工人 Miguel Parra Hernandez,本站10月12日曾报道该事件引发的调查、10月17日跟进报道过追捕目标的争议说法,如今案件进入刑事起诉阶段。
地方检察官 Sean Teare 周五在记者会上播放了执法记录仪与监控视频。他说,10月10日上午约7时30分,Morales 驾驶一辆无标记的2025款 Jeep Grand Cherokee,在 West Houston 的 Clay Road 与6号公路一带拦停 Parra Hernandez 所驾驶的车辆;Parra Hernandez 与车上另一名乘员下车逃跑,Morales 随即驾车追赶。检方称,画面显示 Morales「猛打方向盘、径直撞向 Parra Hernandez」,车辆碾过他双腿。Parra Hernandez 右腿多处骨折、伤势严重,至今仍在住院康复,并处于羁押之中。执法记录仪音频中可以听到 Morales 追赶时喊「有人逃跑」,被撞倒地的 Parra Hernandez 对他说「你碾了我」,Morales 则向赶到的同事说:「我开进来,把他撞了。」
地方检察官办公室在其官网的新闻发布页公布了本案的公开素材:起诉书可经 Harris County 地区书记官网站查询,办公室同时公开了记者会视频、事发时的911报警录音与现场视频素材。Teare 表示,Parra Hernandez 在事发时没有犯罪记录、没有遣返令、也没有任何进行中的移民程序;Morales 目前尚未被拘押,检方将签发逮捕令,并已与其律师联系。起诉本身不等同于定罪,Morales 是否有罪将由法院审理决定。
Morales 的律师 David Lindenmuth 表示,这起碰撞是一场悲剧性的意外、不是犯罪。ICE 向美联社表示,这项起诉「不过是 Houston 庇护政策政客的一场政治作秀」,并称故意撞人的指控「鲁莽且不实」;ICE 此前称 Parra Hernandez 是自己跑到执法车辆前方被撞。
前情方面,ICE 称当天的行动原本是要逮捕持有遣返令的 Jose Mendoza-Cervantes,并认为他当时就在 Parra Hernandez 的车上;但地方检察官办公室10月中旬曾表示,Mendoza-Cervantes 当时并不在车内,移民权益组织 FIEL 在 Houston 记者会上称,ICE 公布的「目标人物」照片其实是另一名数年前已去世的男子,其家属已向检方提供墨西哥政府出具的死亡证明。这一争议预计将成为后续庭审的焦点之一。
Follow-Up: Harris County Grand Jury Indicts ICE Officer Mario Alberto Morales on Aggravated Assault Charge in Houston Crash That Injured Immigrant Worker, Faces Up to 20 Years
Houston — In Houston, Harris County, Texas, the Harris County District Attorney's Office announced on Friday, October 30, that a county grand jury had indicted U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer Mario Alberto Morales, 33, on one count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a second-degree felony carrying 2 to 20 years in prison if he is convicted. The indictment stems from an October 10 immigration enforcement operation in which Morales struck and ran over Miguel Parra Hernandez, a 48-year-old Mexican construction worker, with his vehicle — an incident GSM first reported on October 12 as an investigation unfolded, and followed on October 17 over a dispute about whom ICE had been pursuing. The case has now moved into criminal prosecution.
District Attorney Sean Teare played body-camera and surveillance video at a Friday news conference. He said that at about 7:30 a.m. on October 10, Morales, driving an unmarked 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee, stopped the vehicle driven by Parra Hernandez near Clay Road and Highway 6 in West Houston; Parra Hernandez and another occupant got out and ran, and Morales drove after them. Prosecutors say the video shows Morales aggressively steering his vehicle into Parra Hernandez and running over both of his legs. Parra Hernandez suffered multiple fractures to his right leg and serious injuries; he remains hospitalized in a rehabilitation facility and in custody. In the body-camera audio, Morales can be heard calling out about a runner as he drives after the men; Parra Hernandez, on the ground, tells him, "You ran over me," and Morales tells a colleague who arrived, "I was coming in, and I hit him with the car."
The District Attorney's Office posted public media assets for the case on its news-release page: the indictment can be obtained through the Harris County District Clerk's site, and the office released the news-conference video, the 911 call audio and scene video from the incident. Teare said Parra Hernandez had no criminal history, no deportation order and no pending immigration proceedings at the time of the crash. Morales is not yet in custody; Teare said an arrest warrant would be issued and that his office had been in contact with the officer's attorney. An indictment is not a conviction, and whether Morales is guilty will be decided by a court.
Morales's attorney, David Lindenmuth, said the collision was a tragic accident, not a crime. ICE told the Associated Press the indictment was "nothing more than a political stunt by Houston Sanctuary politicians," and called allegations of an intentional strike "reckless and false." ICE has previously said Parra Hernandez ran in front of the agency's vehicle and was struck.
As background, ICE has said the October 10 operation was meant to arrest Jose Mendoza-Cervantes, a man with a deportation order whom officers believed was in Parra Hernandez's vehicle. In mid-October, however, the District Attorney's Office said Mendoza-Cervantes was not in the vehicle, and the immigrant-rights group FIEL told a Houston news conference that the photograph ICE released of its target actually showed a different man who had died years earlier, whose family provided a Mexican government death certificate to prosecutors. That dispute is expected to be one focus of the court proceedings ahead.
