The man accused of leading the attack that left a Brownsville ICE agent dead is now under higher security.
Julian Zapata Espinoza, also known as El Piolin, was being held by the agency that oversees federal investigations in Mexico, but late last week he was handed over to federal police.
A judge signed the order saying the move was done for safety reasons and to ensure that Zapata Espinoza remained in custody while authorities continue investigating the case against him.
Zapata espinoza is accused of leading the group of Zetas that carried out the murder of ICE Agent Jaime Zapata back in February.
Agent Zapata and his partner were ambushed along a highway in San Luis.
