Jefferson Velasquez, the 18-year-old from El Salvador charged in two separate Houston murder cases, has been denied bond.

Bond has been denied for now on a second murder charge for an El Salvador teen accused of killing two different young people about eight months apart.

Houston police have charged an 18-year-old with murder in a Midtown shooting, and he was already in the Harris County Jail facing a separate murder charge from a house party in East Harris County.
