Border Patrol agent who died in mysterious incident mourned at funeral
Rogelio Martinez
Bagpipes played as Border Patrol pallbearers in green uniforms carried the U.S. flag-draped coffin of  Rogelio Martinez   36  into Our Lady of Guadalupe Church for a private funeral Mass. He died in a hospital Sunday of head and other injuries.
 Martinez  was found Nov. 18 in a culvert along with  his  seriously injured partner  whose name has not been released  in a rugged area near Van Horn  about 30 miles from the border with Mexico and 110 miles southeast of El Paso.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions was scheduled to attend the funeral but it was not clear if  he  was there. Following the funeral  a graveside ceremony was held at Restlawn Cemetery in El Paso.
Speculation about the cause of death has run rampant with several politicians saying the agent was attacked  including President Trump  who used the death to highlight  his  support for building a wall on the border with Mexico.
