Torrez Jailhouse Confession Tape Released

Convicted murderer and rapist Jorge Torrez, who’s facing a possible death sentence, confessed his crimes to an inmate-turned-informant at the Arlington County jail.

Fox 5 has obtained the recording of the ex-Marine’s chilling confession, in which he expresses no remorse for killing two little girls and 20-year-old Navy Petty Officer Amanda Jean Snell.

A judge is scheduled to determine Torrez’s fate — whether to accept a jury’s death sentence recommendation — at a hearing on May 30.
