Couple sentenced for injury to child in Pecos case
Antonio and Hortensia Jurado, both of Pecos, were placed on five years supervised probation after pleading guilty to second degree injury to a child. The case stems from malnutrition of their 3 year old daughter Colina Jurado found tied to a tree in their yard. The family’s six children were taken into foster care as authorities investigated. An Oklahoma man, Edward Owen Miller, 35, was jailed in Pecos on a warrant for obtaining merchandise by false and bogus checks and awaits extradition to Oklahoma.
