‘Pure evil’ illegal migrant ‘murdered boy, 15, after trying to rape youngster’s mother’

An illegal migrant has been accused of shooting dead a teen who tried to stop the Mexican national from raping his mother. 

Gildardo Amandor-Martinez, 36, allegedly gunned down Luis Lopez, 15, after the brave boy heard his mother crying for help from the bedroom of their Morehead, Kentucky home on July 20. 

She had been trying to fight off her boyfriend Martinez after he returned from a bar and tried to have sex with her, according to court documents obtained by the Lexington Herald Leader. 

Luis entered the room upon hearing the commotion and asked his mother – who sustained bite marks and other injuries from the attack – if he should call the cops. 

Martinez, allegedly naked on top of the horrified woman, told the boy to get out before he appeared to be leaving the apartment himself at around 2.30am. 

But on his way out, Martinez fired a pistol through the bedroom door three times – striking Luis and his young sister, Naomi, 3. 

The mother allegedly escaped from the house with her one-year-old, who she shares with Martinez, before realizing her three-year-old was still inside. 

She ran back to the home and shouted for Naomi to run, she told police, adding that she heard more bullets ring as she sprinted away.

The mother was laying in bed with the baby she has with Martinez when he returned home demanding sex, Fox 56 reported. 

Cops arrived at the residence and immediately declared Luis, who had been shot in the face, dead. 

His sister was taken to a nearby hospital for her injuries. She is in critical condition. 

Martinez ran from the home and was tracked down by authorities roughly 12 hours later and charged with murder, first degree assault and first-degree attempted rape. 

On July 23, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced ICE pursued an arrest detainer against Martinez. 

ICE detainers are ‘legal requests to state or local law enforcement to hold illegal aliens in custody until they can be turned over to immigration authorities,’ according to the DHS. 

The agency also revealed Martinez is a ‘criminal illegal alien from Mexico [who] attempted to enter the country THREE times under the Biden administration in 2021.’

On his third try, Martinez finally entered the US through the Southern border, but the date of his entry remains unclear.

’15-year-old Luis Lopez died trying to save his mother from this criminal illegal alien who was attempting to rape her,’ Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said.  

‘Gildardo Amandor-Martinez is a rapist and cold-blooded killer who should have never been in this country.

‘The Biden administration’s open-border policies allowed this monster to walk American streets and commit these evil crimes, including murder, assault, and attempted rape, against a mother and her children.’

Luis attended Rowan County Senior High School, where he would have been a sophomore in the fall. School officials described Luis as a ‘sweet student.’

A fundraiser through DOVES of Gateway, a shelter that helps domestic violence victims, has been organized to support the devastated family. 

The shelter partnered with Citizens Bank to create the Nunez Family Memorial Fund for funeral expenses for Luis. 

‘We grieve alongside the Nunez family and stand with them in this time of heartbreak,’ the shelter said in a Facebook post.

Tributes from heartbroken relatives, loved ones and mothers empathizing with Luis’s mom’s pain have poured in on social media.

‘When one momma cries, we all cry,’ one woman, Kylie Burks, wrote. ‘That woman always has a smile on her face and her world just shattered.

‘This child died a hero and deserves all the love. My heart is broken for this family.’ 

His aunt also shared a tear-jerking tribute on Facebook, writing: ‘My boy I love you, my heart is broken because you are gone.’

Luis’ family declined Daily Mail’s request for comment.
