JUDGE ORDERS THE RELEASE OF DANIEL KEY WITNESS IN LORENZO SALGADO ARAUJO SHOOTING
[HOUSTON, TX] On August 25, 2026 a federal judge ordered the release of Daniel Tirado Pantoja a key witness in the Lorenzo Salgado Araujo Shooting. He must be released within 48 hours. We applaud this development and know this is a long time coming. FIEL Spokespeople are available for comment.
"Justice takes time, but justice comes. We welcome the fact that Daniel was released but caution the community and the people involved that this is not final. We must now do everything in our power to make sure that we keep a vigilant eye on this case so Mr. is not re-apprehended. We want to make sure that these key witnesses are protected so that at the end of the day we can get the answers the community deserves. " -Cesar Espinosa FIEL Houston
