On January 22, 2023, at approximately 6:15 a.m., the Hunt County Sheriff's Office received a call reporting suspicious activity near County Road 4108 in the Greenville/Campbell area of Texas. The caller indicated that her husband had been kidnapped at gunpoint by three individuals, and shortly thereafter, gunshots were heard. Responding deputies discovered the body of 53-year-old Homero Leos on County Road 4106. Investigators, including the Texas Rangers, determined that Leos had been murdered.
Subsequent investigation led to the arrest of 62-year-old Silviano Robles from Rowlett, Texas, who was identified as the brother-in-law of the victim. Robles was taken into custody and charged with murder in connection with Leos's death. He was booked into the Hunt County Detention Center, awaiting arraignment. Sheriff Terry Jones commended the efforts of his deputies and investigators for their prompt action in apprehending the suspect.
The arrest of Robles brought some closure to the tragic incident, though the community remained in shock over the familial nature of the crime. Details about the motive behind the murder were not immediately disclosed, and the case underscored the complexities often present in domestic-related homicides. As the legal process proceeded, authorities continued to investigate the circumstances leading up to the fatal shooting to ensure justice for Homero Leos and his family.
