Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly, 75, will not face a retrial for the alleged killing of Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea, a Mexican national found dead on the elder’s property in January 2023.
The New York Post reported that Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Thomas Fink made the decisive ruling on Tuesday, denying the prosecution’s request to keep the case open.
Kelly’s case sparked an intense debate over border security and property rights.
It initially ended in a mistrial in April when jurors failed to reach a verdict, Resist the Mainstream previously reported.
