SHOCK ROADSIDE DISCOVERY: BOY LAST WITH 'DEPRAVED ILLEGAL' SOCCER COACH, DEAD
Oscar Hernandez is out playing soccer at Whitsett fields when he meets Coach Mario Garcia-Aquino. Garcia-Aquino approaches Oscar about joining the Huacane Club, telling the boy he’s impressed with his skills. When Garcia-Aquino offers him one on one lessons without charge, Oscar jumps at the chance! On a Friday afternoon, Coach Garcia-Aquino gives his star student a call, inviting Oscar Hernandez to make some money doing a few odd jobs at his Lancaster home. The teen is immediately interested. Before the 13-year-old gets permission from family, he grabs the next train to Lancaster, a 2-hour trip. Oscar facetimes his brother Josue from the train, telling him Coach will drop him back at home tomorrow morning. Later that night, Josue tries to call Oscar again, but it’s not his little brother that answers, but Coach Garcia-Aquino. Coach tells Josue that Oscar can’t come to the phone because his hands are dirty. Josue tries to ask exactly what time he can expect Oscar home, but the coach waves him off, once again promising he’ll bring Oscar home at a reasonable time Saturday. Saturday morning comes and goes, and Oscar still isn’t home. The teen isn’t answering his phone either. It’s already dark when the Hernandez family finally gets Coach Garcia-Aquino on the phone. The coach says he dropped Oscar off that afternoon in North Hollywood, but strangely, he claims he can’t remember exactly where Oscar got out of the car. The Hernandez’s pray Oscar will come home that night but when he does not, first thing Sunday morning, they report the teen missing.
