Members of the human smuggling ring were transporting the migrants to Houston in March 2019 when a crash caused the vehicle to rollover, killing four of the migrants and injuring six others.

The victims included citizens of Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador and Ecuador as well as a 17-year-old boy from Ecuador, the news release stated.

Torres’ sentence will be followed by one year of supervised release. He will remain on bond before voluntarily surrendering to a prison facility in the near future.
