This is how Vanessa Guillén was fired for the last time in Texas

With a ceremony between her family and closest relatives, the Latina soldier Vanessa Guillén was buried in a cemetery southwest of Houston, almost four months after she was murdered inside the Fort Hood military base in Texas.

Despite being a private moment, after a public wake held this Friday, several people accompanied the transfer of the coffin in a caravan of vehicles through the streets of the city.

Until the Catholic Church of the Holy Name, where his family gave him the last goodbye, authorities from Houston also arrived, such as the Chief of Police, Arturo Acevedo, who told Noticias Telemundo that the family had allowed him to carry out a new examination of DNA to the young woman , independent of that already carried out by the Army.

The Democratic congresswoman from Texas, Sylvia García, also fired the soldier, in addition to announcing that the objective will be to change the search process for the missing soldiers, so that their families can become involved in them and access more information than the that Vanessa's mother and sisters had.

"Long live Vanessa Guillén!" Her sister Lupe shouted at the exit of the church, at the same time she let a white dove fly.

Lupe, who energetically led several of the demonstrations that the family held to demand that the murder of her sister be clarified, as well as call for the closure of the Fort Hood military base, had said this Friday that Vanessa's funeral would be a moment of celebration.

After the church ceremony, the relatives moved to Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery in southeast Houston where the remains of the soldier were buried.

Guillén disappeared from Fort Hood on April 22 and on July 6, the Army confirmed that human remains found near the base corresponded to the soldier.

Vanessa's mother, Gloria Guillén, has repeatedly denounced that her daughter was the victim of sexual harassment by one of the Fort Hood soldiers. The family's lawyer assures that she did not file a formal complaint against that person for fear of reprisals.

So far, authorities have only detained one person in connection with Vanessa's murder. This is Cecily Ann Aguilar, 22, and former partner of the main suspect Robinson. She is accused of conspiring to manipulate evidence.

The investigation claims that Aguilar collaborated with the soldier, dismembering the body with a weapon similar to a machete and burying it in three separate holes along the León River, near Fort Hood.

If convicted, Aguilar faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $ 250,000.
