California Soccer Coach’s Alleged Murder of 13-Year-Old Player Is ‘Result of Failed Border Policies’: Attorney

The alleged California murder of a missing 13-year-old soccer player by his illegal immigrant coach was “an avoidable crime and the result of failed border policies,” a U.S. attorney told Fox News.

Mario Edgardo Garcia-Aquino, 43, allegedly killed his player, Oscar “Omar” Hernandez, in Lancaster on March 28, according to Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman. Multiple law enforcement sources told Fox News on Tuesday that Garcia-Aquino is an illegal immigrant from El Salvador.

Hochman said earlier this week that on the day of Hernandez’s alleged murder, he “went up to Lancaster to see Mr. Garcia-Aquino.

“Two days later he was reported missing. And on April 2, 2025 last week, his body was found in Oxnard off a road near Leo Carillo State Beach,” Hochman added at a news conference.

His office said Garcia-Aquino is charged with “one count of murder with the special circumstance allegation of murder during the commission or attempted commission of lewd acts with a child, making him eligible for the death penalty.” Additionally, Garcia-Aquino faces a possible maximum sentence of life in prison without parole.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office separately charged Garcia-Aquino on Monday with one felony count of assault with the intent to commit a sexual offense, following his alleged sexual assault of a 16-year-old boy in Palmdale in February 2024.

Garcia-Aquino was then charged on Tuesday with the alleged sexual assault of a 14-year-old boy in December 2022.
