US immigration arrests Argentine man accused of killing Tunisian-American model in Mexico

Thursday, 3 September 2026, 06:25 · 1 min read

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has taken into custody Juan Manuel Reverter, an Argentine national accused of the 2023 femicide of Tunisian-American model Agostina Jalabert in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. The arrest comes after three years of relentless pursuit by Jalabert's family, who continued pressuring authorities despite obstacles that included the resignation of the prosecutor handling the case in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. The family's perseverance has drawn attention to accountability gaps in cross-border femicide cases, with relatives stating: "We never stopped fighting."
