Cameron County District Attorney Luis V. Saenz spoke exclusively to Channel 5 News and named Miguel Angel Flores as the person of interest in the death of Nahomi Rodriguez.

"We continue to work to build the best case against Flores and identify co-conspirators, whom we believe conspired with Flores to commit the crime," Saenz said. "Nahomi deserves justice, and we continue our endeavor to find justice and secure peace and closure for the family."

Flores is currently serving time at a state prison in Brazoria after pleading guilty to aggravated robberies in Cameron and Hidalgo counties in 2017.

State prison records show he was previously sentenced on a charge of aggravated kidnapping in 2003.

Those with any information on Rodriguez's death are urged to contact the Harlingen Police Department at 956-216-5459.
