A woman who helped plan the robbery and murder of a Garland man has been sentenced to 40 years in prison.
18-year-old Natalie Navarro convinced Arturo Pena that she was interested in dating him. She arranged a meeting for them in Garland in August 2023. It was a trap.
Police believe Navarro and her real lover, Jordy Martinez, murdered Pena, took from him, and escaped. Authorities initially believed Martinez had kidnapped Navarro, leading them to issue an Amber Alert.
However, they rapidly concluded that Navarro was involved. Martinez fled and is believed to be in Mexico while they captured her.
