Correctional officers found an inmate of the Travis County Jail dead in his cell on Wednesday, according to the Travis County sheriff’s office.

Authorities attempted to resuscitate 63-year-old Robert Valentino Munguia after they found him unresponsive just before 10:40 a.m. on Wednesday, according to a press release sent Thursday evening, but those attempts were unsuccessful.

Munguia was arrested on Nov. 26, 2023, and charged with injury to an elderly individual, a third-degree felony, court records show. Charging documents show that Munguia reportedly pushed his 72-year-old roommate out of his wheelchair and then punched him “approximately 30 times” in the face and stomach.

In February, an evaluation by a doctor found that Munguia was not competent to stand trial and ordered that he be committed to a hospital for a period of up to 90 days. Munguia was set to have another hearing on June 17.

Citing the open investigation, sheriff’s office spokesperson Kristen Dark said she could not provide any more information about the circumstances surrounding Munguia’s death.

Investigations are underway by the internal affairs unit and the criminal investigations division of the sheriff’s office along with the Texas Rangers. An autopsy is being performed by the Travis County medical examiner’s office.
