The suspect charged with capital murder in the shooting death of a Texas corporal during a Houston traffic stop last weekend is a citizen of El Salvador and previously entered the U.S. illegally, ICE confirmed Thursday.
Jose Oscar Rosales, a 50-year-old citizen of El Salvador, was arrested Wednesday in Ciudad de Acuna, Mexico, for the killing of Harris County Corporal Charles Galloway.
"Rosales previously illegally entered the U.S. on an unknown date and at unknown location without inspection or parole by U.S. immigration officials and later fled to Mexico after allegedly murdering a Harris County (Texas) Constables Office deputy," an ICE spokesperson confirmed to Fox News.
U.S. immigration officials lodged a detainer with the Val Verde County Detention Center in Del Rio, Texas, for Rosales Wednesday shortly after he was returned to the U.S. from Mexico.
After the deadly traffic stop early Sunday, Rosales' common-law wife and her brother were arrested in Houston and charged with tampering with evidence. ICE confirmed both were not U.S. citizens.
"On Jan. 25, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Houston Field Office lodged immigration detainers with the Harris County (Texas) Sheriff's Office on Henri Mauricio Pereira Marquez, a 42-year-old noncitizen from Mexico, and Reina Azucena Pereira Marquez, a 40-year-old noncitizen from El Salvador, after they were both arrested by the Houston Police Department (HPD) for allegedly tampering or fabricating physical evidence with intent to impair," ICE said.

Court documents obtained by Fox News Digital shed more light on the deadly traffic stop. Body-worn camera and in-car dash camera video showed Rosales allegedly shoot Galloway through the windshield.
At 12:30 a.m. Sunday, Galloway activated his emergency lights and siren in a fully marked patrol vehicle and conducted a traffic stop on a white Toyota Avalon with a Texas license plate. The driver continued at a slow pace until coming to a stop in the 9100 block of Beechnut Street in Houston.

As Galloway attempted to notify dispatch of the stop, body-worn camera and dash camera video show the driver got out of the vehicle and immediately pointed a rifle in the corporal's direction.
The male suspect fired repeated gunshots in the direction of the corporal while he was still in the front seat of his patrol vehicle. Multiple gunshots shattered the front windshield, court documents say.
The gunman then got back into his car and left the scene. Houston police and fire responded to the shooting. Galloway was pronounced dead at the scene.
The medical examiner listed his cause of death as "a single gunshot wound to the left side of the face."
Court documents say the suspect's vehicle was registered to an individual found to be Rosales' common-law wife of 17 years. First interviewed by police, the woman said Rosales had left to go hunting with his friends and had taken two long guns out of a safe he had access to.
Later that Sunday afternoon, officers located the white Toyota Avalon in the parking lot of a Houston apartment complex and observed the common law wife and her brother removing items from the car. Her brother was also spotted wiping down the handles of the vehicle, court documents allege.

Progressive policies and an open border are directly responsible for another senseless death.
An awfully large reach to prove that statement.
No words.............SMH
previously entered the U.S. illegally,
So much for the effectiveness of the so-called "wall" Trump falsely claimed to have built...
Joe Biden and everyone supporting him.
ICE is the only way to remove the illegals that have settled in. Everyone knows it.
Biden stopped it. It isn't Trump's fault any more
Most of the country wishes they could go back to early November of 2020.
According to the article, "Rosales previously illegally entered the U.S. on an unknown date and at unknown location". Meaning that he may have just as likely come over during Trump's watch.
It's a bitch when you blame someone without being able to prove it is their fault. Isn't it?
I didn't blame a fucking thing. I just shifted to where it has belonged for a year now. And the key word in your argument seed you are attempting to plant, is "may" so you can't say he came while Trump was in charge either. He "may" have come for Cinco de Mayo 2021 too. It must be a bitch when you have to stretch a point JUST to start a fucking argument. Seems that's all you like to do. I ain't playing your childish game.
Or maybe he was encouraged by Trump policies. Until you know when he came over, everything you say shows your partisan hackery.
Probably came over as part of a Mar-a-Lago work force.
REPORT: TRUMP HAPPILY EMPLOYING UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS WHILE ICE ROUNDS THEM UP
The Foreign Workers of Mar-a-Lago
So Trump Employs Undocumented Immigrants at His Properties and Nobody Really Cares?
A pipeline of undocumented workers for Donald Trump ran from Costa Rica to N.J.: 'My whole town practically lived there'
Hiring policies at his properties.
Deflection, projection, and denial alert!!!
Name the Trump policies that were illegal alien friendly while he was president?
I can name several of Biden's.
The FACT that he has been here for a while, BEFORE he committed murder, would indicate that your "facts" come from a very dark place, not from the real world.
You want me to name the Trump hiring policies at all his properties? LOL!!!
Not according to the story he wasn't. They didn't arrest him here.
Once again, if you had bothered to read the actual comment I made , you would not look so silly with your replies.
That was when Trump was a Democrat in good standing!
The fact he has crossed the border multiple times means your "facts" are fiction.
It isn't Republicans that are clamoring for an open border. It isn't Republicans are encouraging illegals to come. It isn't Republicans that are relocating them all over the US. And it sure as hell isn't Republicans that broke every record since they started recording for most illegal crossings in a year.
So lef's go Brandon! Biden did do one thing very well; and continues to do it. He has made our borders, and immigration enforcement, the laughing stock of the world.
It also isn't the democrats.
Au contraire. It is businesses that are encouraging illegals to come for cheap labor. Businesses like Trump enterprises.
But it is the republicans blocking any kind of punishment to the businesses that are employing them. You know, the reason they come over...
Let's see ... who was POTUS in 1995 and originally ignored this thug? And how many others didn't notice him and thugs like him?
