Gay Man Charged With Boyfriend’s Murder After Refusing To Let Him Out Of Car Before Wreck
A gay man is charged with murder in his boyfriend’s death after allegedly refusing to allow him out of the car before a fatal wreck.
Jesus Mireles (above left), 23, was driving a 2012 Kia Forte early Sunday when he crashed into three parked cars in El Paso. Mireles, who’d been drinking, was injured in the wreck, and his boyfriend of six months, 25-year-old Daniel Mendoza, was killed.
