Cuban National Admits to Beheading Man with Machete in Dallas Motel
2025-09-15 06:04

Yordanis CobosMartinez, an undocumented Cuban immigrant, has admitted to using a machete to behead a man at a Dallas motel, according to a court affidavit. The incident occurred in front of the victim's wife and son, who tried to intervene. Surveillance footage shows CobosMartinez attacking the victim both inside and outside a motel room. The victim's head was found in a dumpster. CobosMartinez is held without bond, though formal charges have not been verified. ICE has issued a detainer for his arrest and removal, labeling him a 'depraved criminal.' CobosMartinez was previously held in ICE custody in Dallas and was released on an order of supervision on January 13 because Cuba refused to accept him due to his criminal history.
