CARROLLTON, AL – Last week, Zocimo Hernandez, 25, pleaded guilty to the 2019 slaying of Hernan Diaz Diego, and was sentenced by Pickens County County Circuit Judge Samuel Junkin to 20 years in prison.
Hernandez shot Diego to death and left his body lying on Pickens County Road 2.
AL.com reported:
“Diego and Hernandez knew each other and became involved in an argument. This was purportedly Diego believing that Hernandez had placed a voodoo curse on him,” said 24th Judicial Circuit District Attorney Andy Hamlin.
A driver called 911 around 10:30 p.m. April 6 to report a man in the road. Investigators identified the victim as Diego, a 34-year-old from Mexico City, Mexico, who was reported missing the following morning by his boss who had become concerned when he uncharacteristically failed to show for work at the chicken processing plant in Brooksville, Mississippi where he was employed.
Diego's vehicle was discovered near a Walmart in Northport, with blood inside the car.
Under questioning (in Spanish), Hernandez confessed to the murder.
I get paid over $190 per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over 15k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless.➤➤ https://www.workapp2.com
Deport him, AND the person who let him go the last time.
