An illegal alien faces charges in the death of his girlfriend following the discovery of her body in a state forest. Lesbia Mileth Ramirez Guerra, 23, had been missing for over two weeks when authorities located her remains in Cedarville State Forest on April 17. Guerra was last seen at her residence on March 31, with boyfriend Keycy Robinson Alexi Barrera Rosa notifying police of her disappearance on April 2.
Sheriff’s officials stated that detectives uncovered Guerra’s body beneath a blanket buried five feet deep in the forest. The search effort heavily relied on digital data to zero in on the specific area. Officials from the Charles County Sheriff’s Office pressed on despite the challenging terrain, confirmed spokeswoman Diane Richardson.
Keycy Rosa, 24, Guerra’s boyfriend and the father of her children, faces charges for her murder following the discovery of the victim’s body. Rosa was previously known for possessing fraudulent identity documents, leading law enforcement to ascertain his illegal alien status through Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) cooperation.
In addition to Rosa’s charges, authorities arrested his uncle, Rolvin Eduardo Bererra Bererra, 37, as an accessory. Both men are held without bond as investigations continue.

IN FULL:
A recent Economist/YouGov poll conducted April 19–22, 2025, has exposed a sharp partisan divide over the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 member recently sent back to El Salvador by the Trump administration. The survey of 1,625 U.S. adult citizens asked whether Abrego should be allowed to return to the U.S., revealing that 90 percent of Kamala Harris voters in 2024 support his return. However, a separate question on whether or not respondents believe he is a member of the notorious MS-13 gang, as the Trump administration says, reveals that a plurality of 43 percent are unsure. If they can be convinced, public sentiment may shift in favor of his deportation.
While 50 percent of Americans overall support Abrego’s return—after pollsters primed them with a description of him as having been removed “despite a court order prohibiting his deportation”—an overwhelming 90 percent of Harris voters want him back. In contrast, 59 percent of Trump voters reject his return.
Along party lines, 87 percent of Democrats favor Abrego’s return, while 54 percent of Republicans oppose it. Ideology mirrors this split, with 87 percent of liberals backing his return, compared to 61 percent of conservatives who are against it.
A second question in the poll reveals widespread uncertainty about Abrego’s alleged MS-13 membership, with 43 percent of respondents overall admitting they’re “not sure” if he’s part of the gang. This doubt is consistent across demographics: 39 percent of white people, 61 percent of black people, and 45 percent of Hispanics are unsure. Politically, 33 percent of Harris voters and 34 percent of Trump voters also express uncertainty.
Overall, only 27 percent affirmatively believe Abrego is an MS-13 member at present, while 30 percent think he is not.
Recent reports indicate Abrego was arrested in 2022 on suspicion of human trafficking, with eight passengers who all have his home address crammed into his SUV. The vehicle belonged to his “boss,” Jose Ramon Hernandez Reyes, a fellow Salvadoran illegal convicted of trafficking offenses in 2020.
Coupled with recent revelations that his wife filed for a protective order against him for alleged domestic violence, this undermines the media image of him as a blameless Maryland father with a clean criminal record. Further revelations about his alleged MS-13 and criminal ties may turn public opinion against him.
And just 27% are convinced he’s MS-13, as the Trump administration keeps saying.
