A Colombian national pleaded guilty in the slaying of DEA Agent James “Terry” Watson, who was stabbed to death in Columbia, the Associated Press reports.
Julio Estiven Garcia Ramiez, one of seven Colombians extradited to the U.S. for charges connected to the murder of the 43-year-old agent, pleaded guilty Wednesday to aiding and abetting the murder of an internationally protected person.
Ramirez was in federal court in Alexandria, where he will be sentenced Dec. 5.
Authorities say Watson was in Columbia when the defendants posed as taxi drivers in an attempt to rob him.
