RILEY COUNTY, Kansas - The Riley County Police Department says Tanya Maldonado, 18, and Juan Luis Maldonado, 15 months, are the two whose bodies were discovered partially buried near Ogden last week.

A hunter discovered the remains of the woman and small male child on Sunday, Oct. 25th. They were partially buried in a shallow grave near the 6300 block of South 32nd Street, just northeast of Ogden.

The suspect, police said Monday, is Luis Antonio Aguirre, 22. His last known address was in Ogden. He is being held in jail in Austin, Texas on $2.5 million bond. Police say an extradition hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 4, and they expect him to be in Kansas within one week, pending that hearing.

At this time police still have not released the victims’ causes of death, nor how long the remains were in the shallow grave.

Luis Aguirre was the father. He befriended her at a public beach in Chicago IL, where he was a life guard. She was my Niece, & I loved her Very Much! She lived with me for 1.5yrs before, & during her pregnancy. I wish she hadn't left, I tried to help her. She was the daughter I never had. She was only 16 when he had sex with her; he was approximately 20yrs old! I tried to get her to cooperate~I filed charged against him for statutory RAPE, but she loved him, & he filled her head with Lies. I hope God has mercy on his soul. Rest in Peace Tanya. The bodies still haven't been released for a proper funeral.
