During the trial, it was revealed that Guzman-Feliz was not the intended target. He was mistaken for a rival gang member.

The trial gained national attention, as the men were seen as cold and emotionless during proceedings — especially Jose Muniz, 23. Muniz was identified in the video as one of the men who struck Guzman-Feliz with a machete during the attack. His horrid actions gained him the moniker “Machete Man.”

After learning his fate, Muniz shouted out in court, “Popote, hasta la muerte!” — Spanish slang for “Trinitarios until death,” Pix 11 reports.
