According to the Huffington Post, the 25-year-old told police that he murdered his mother, 45-year-old Jesus Ismenia Marinero. The woman’s body was found in a ditch on Wednesday. He also admitted to throwing his 11-month-old brother in a dumpster. Lastly, Martinez-Marinero told authorities that he threw his 5-year-old brother into a river.
The boy still has not been located.
“Police said Martinez-Marinero admitted throwing the boy into the Elkhorn River. The Omaha Police Department is conducting a ground, air and water search along the river, with help from the FBI and other law enforcement agencies.”

The brother that Roberto Martinez-Marinero threw into a dumpster was found unharmed by a man who was cleaning out his car nearby. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Angel Ramirez-Marinero was left in a trash dumpster wearing only a diaper. The 11-month-old baby had a couple of scratches and bruises on him, but was otherwise in good condition considering. Police located Jesus Ismenia Marinero’s body on the same day that they got a call about Angel, but did not confirm that the cases were related (upon discovery, police did not identify the woman’s body as Marinero’s).
