Lorenzo Salgado's family fires him in private and the Mexican, with mariachis and rancheras

The article describes the private funeral service held for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican immigrant who was killed by an ICE agent on July 7th. The event took place at a chapel in Houston, where photographs of his life were displayed on two screens, highlighting moments with his family and personal interests. The ceremony included mariachi music and traditional songs, reflecting his cultural background. His children, along with other family members and community members, attended the service, which emphasized privacy and emotional connection rather than public confrontation. The wife of Lorenzo sat in the first row, briefly interacting with attendees including Congresswoman Sylvia García, who has supported the family’s call for transparency regarding the shooting. The funeral was closed to cameras and phones, with police and volunteers ensuring security. Meanwhile, his brother Víctor, who was detained during the same operation, did not attend the funeral and remains in ICE custody.
