Pharr Police Chief Andy Harvey Jr. said Gabriel Quintanilla, the 42-year-old man whose body was found in a McAllen field Jan. 20, had been accused of continuous sexual assault in 2019. The case is unrelated to the outcry authorities believe caused Alejandro and Christian Trevino, along with friend Juan Eduardo Melendez, to beat Quintanilla.
