THE BORDER REPORT
A federal prosecutor in Sinaloa is reporting that the murder investigation of a photojournalist remains unsolved and that if the PGR believes Antonio Frausto Ocampo was responsible, the Mexican government will ask for his extradition to Mexico.
Up until now, the United States has not asked the Mexican government for information related to the murder of Gregorio Rodriguez in 2004, I'm told.
After the killing, Frausto was exonerated of Rodriguez's murder by a judge in the local town both men hail from, Escuinapa, Sinaloa. He was arrested in Omaha, Nebraska this past January on meth trafficking charges.
Now we wait to see if Mexico asks for Frausto to be extradited.
