Antonio Hernandez-Ledezma, 24, of Boardman, Oregon, was found in September 2015 when a hiker located skeletal remains near an orchard in the Zillah area. DNA confirmed the remains were his, and an autopsy showed he had been shot in the back of the head at close range. Investigators recovered his abandoned Ford Mustang; the passenger window was broken and blood and a spent cartridge were found inside the vehicle.
Authorities identified 19-year-old Yoset Dominguez-Serrano of Outlook, Washington, as the primary suspect. Investigators say Dominguez-Serrano lured Hernandez-Ledezma under the pretense of buying the Mustang because he believed Hernandez-Ledezma had impregnated a 13-year-old relative and that there was a warrant for rape; DNA later showed Hernandez-Ledezma was not the father. Dominguez-Serrano was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and later pleaded guilty.
Did anyone in the Sunnyside or Zillah areas know Hernandez-Ledezma, his Mustang, or the circumstances around that September discovery?
