LOS ANGELES – Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman announced that a youth soccer coach was charged today with murdering 13-year-old Oscar “Omar” Hernandez, whose body was found by the side of the road in Ventura County last week.
“No parent should ever have to endure the unimaginable pain and sorrow of learning their child has been murdered,” District Attorney Hochman said. “Oscar simply boarded a train and little did he or his family know that he would never return. Sexual predators who target victims for their own gratification will be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
