Almost 20 years later, the investigators were waiting to interview Antonio Riano about a fatal shootout in front of a Hamilton bar, and when he finally sat down with the police, he admitted to opening fire against 25-year-old Benjamin Becerra Ramirez during a battle.

The judge of Butler County Common Pleas Michael Oster Jr. decided during a hearing on Friday that the 63-year-old Riano knowingly and intelligently waived his constitutional rights when he spoke to investigators in the Hamilton police department.

Riano is expected to be brought to trial for murder on April 1st, and the public prosecutor will probably present his statements to the police as proof of the jury. According to prosecutors, Riano Becerra Ramirez shot a revolver of 38 caliber in front of a bar in the East Avenue in December 2004.

Police detention man, who is known as “El Diablo”, works as a police officer in Mexico

Riano was charged with murder in 2005 and last year was arrested by Mexican law enforcement agencies in his hometown Zapotitlan Palmas in Oaxaca, where he worked as a police officer.

After Riano had been delivered to the United States, he informed the police in a 90-minute interview that he had been placed in a group after the interview shown before the court had been attacked that his younger brother had been attacked.

The group attacked Riano while he took a weapon out of his truck outside the bar and fired two shots on the group, the transcript says.

Riano's lawyer, Kara Blackney, said Riano also informed the police that he was first shot.

After the questioning of witnesses, the investigators identified Riano as suspects and learned that he was generally referred to as “El Diablo”, a former police detective in Hamilton wrote in an affidavit.

The public prosecutor said that the surveillance video also showed that Riano took out a revolver and initiated Becerra.

The police searched a house in East Avenue, in which Riano had parked his vehicle and found a box of ammunition that agreed to the weapon used in the shootout. When the police later searched Riano's house, she learned that he used several fake names and had papers to create false documentation in order to obtain different identifications.

The public prosecutor said Riano was unlawful at the time of the shootout in the country.

Investigator: Riano fled to Mexico after shooting

A teacher at the elementary school that Riano's daughter attended told the police that they heard the child's mother, that they moved to New Jersey, where the family had previously lived.

The investigators contacted the New Jersey authorities to localize Riano. However, they were informed that he had just left the country.

The police said they interviewed Riano's daughter's mother who said she fought with Riano the night before the shootout and left him. She told the police that a friend had driven him to Mexico.

Two years after the shootout, the owner of the East Avenue Home found that the revolver Becerra shot under the bottom of a bathroom cabinet, said the investigators and added that Riano bought ammunition less than an hour before the ammunition shootout.

The Butler County's office listed Riano as a refugee sought, and the case was even presented on Fox '”America's Most Wanted”, but an earlier attempt to arrest him in Mexico was unsuccessful.

Paul Newtown, senior investigator at the Butler County public prosecutor, finally came across Riano's Facebook account, which contained a video of him.

Lawyer says Riano has not been advised on rights during the interview

Riano's lawyer argued in court on Friday that his statements should be triggered to the police because Detectives did not properly advise him on his constitutional rights in Spanish, his mother tongue.

In a court registration in February, Blackney said Riano lived most of his life in Mexico and had a limited understanding of the English language. She added that the officer, who interviewed Riano, “did not speak Spanish” and Riano was not asked whether he understood his rights before signing an exceptional form.

She also pointed out the English transcript of the interview, in which a third -party provider found several times that the official either did not use Spanish words or words that were grammatically wrong.

Lt. However, Eric Taylor, who carried out the interview, said he was born in Columbia, and Spanish was his first language and added that he regularly used Spanish in his capacity as a police officer.

Taylor noticed several disagreements between what the translator heard and what he remembered what he told Riano when he read about Miranda's warning map written in Spanish.

“He understood it clearly,” Taylor said in court.

The judge finally found that Riano answered the detective's questions directly and never expressed concerns that he did not understand his rights.
