Yahir Alfredo Sandoval, the man who has admitted to killing Banda El Recodo's Aldo Sarabia Garcia, has come out to ask for forgiveness from the musician's children.

During an interview, Sandoval said that Sarabia's death was a mistake.

"I didn't have any intention of killing him," he said. "It was an accident. I just wanted to clear up the relationship he had with Alma [D. Chavez, Garcia's wife], so that he would leave her be. I had never killed anyone. I've been a troublemaker, but that's all."

Sandoval said that he's willing to pay for the error he committed.

He added that he wants forgiveness from Chavez, who was Sandoval's lover and has also been accused of killing Garcia, but more importantly, he wants forgiveness from Garcia's children.

"That's all I can say," he said. "To Estrellita [Garcia and Chavez's daughter], I would say to forgive me."

At the beginning, it was reported that Chavez and Sandoval planned the death, but both have since changed their story. Sandoval explained that he was tortured and made to sign a testimony that implicated Chavez.

He added that he continues to be in love with Chavez and said he had a gun that night because he thought Garcia would have one.

One of Garcia's children recently opened up about having to identify his father.

"I had never felt anything like that," Aldo Sarabia Jr. said. "I didn't expect to see him in the condition that he was in. He was unrecognizable. My brother and I came in to identify him, and we couldn't say if that truly was our dad or not."

Aldo Jr. also said that his father was loving, and he couldn't imagine that he had raped his youngest daughter. He also explained that regardless of what happened, Chavez would always continue to be his mother.
