Austin police said they are still under investigation and claiming that Meza can be involved in the other additional homicides because Austin Police said that around eight and 10 cases that kind of fit the similar circumstances that they are looking for.

According to Austin police that Meza was facing a murder charge of an 8-year-old girl and served about 11 years of a 30-year sentence way back in 1982.

Bruce Mills, who was the investigator of the Meza case in 1982 and is now Austin’s assistant interim city manager, said he thought Meza should have served more time for the 1982 killing.
