District Attorney Elect Ricardo Rodriguez responded in a written letter to Rene Guerra’s request to appoint him as the special prosecutor in the Irene Garza case that he has decided to turn down the offer.
Ricardo Rodriguez personally delivered his written response to the Hidalgo County District Attorney’s office Monday afternoon.
The letter explains that he will revisit the Irene Garza case, but not until he officially takes office in January 2015.
Relatives of Irene Garza said they wholeheartedly support Rodriguez’s decision to do so.
“Actually, at first, I thought it was a joke,” said Irene Garza’s cousin Noemi Siegler.
