The father of a girl in a sex-tape that police believe led to the gruesome murder of a Bronx teenager has apologized to the family of the victim.

Javier, whose last name was withheld by the New York Post because his underage daughter is in involved in a sex crime investigation, said he is ‘disgusted’ and ‘angry’ by the whole ordeal.

‘I cried a lot… it’s disgusting to see my daughter in a video like that,’ Javier, 43, told the Post through a sign language interpreter. 

Javier said he immediately recognized the young girl to be his daughter after his brother sent him a clip via Facebook. Javier said that she would have been 13 or 14 at the time of the incident.

‘I don’t know what happened. Their mother doesn’t raise them right… It’s pathetic,’ Javier added.

Javier learned of his daughter’s involvement in the video soon after surveillance footage of Lesandro ‘Junior’ Guzman-Feliz death was made public last Thursday.

The footage shows Guzman-Feliz being dragged outside a Bronx bodega on June 21 before being stabbed to death.

The incident led to armature online detectives to hunt down the individuals allegedly involved in the homicide and ultimately revealed that Guzman-Feliz, 16, was the victim of mistaken identity.

Police have arrested at least eight individuals connected with Guzman-Feliz’s death, who was buried on Wednesday in a ceremony held in the Bronx.

‘Everybody on Facebook is saying it’s my fault, but I don’t know anything, I haven’t seen her,’ Javier said.

Javier denied knowing any of the men arrested in 16-year-old’s murder and expressed his condolences to the family for their loss.

‘I’m sorry this happened… I feel lost. My heart is broke. I’m shocked, I’m very emotional right now.’ 

Few details illustrating the chain of events leading up to Guzman-Feliz’s death remain unknown due to an ongoing police investigation. 

According to the Post, Javier and his daughter have received numerous death threat over social media since their involvement became public, leading them to scrub their online presence from the Internet.

‘I have to be careful walking around, I’m scared… I’m worried… I need my safety for these children,’ the 42-year-old added.

The sex-tape, taken in August 2017, was shared illegally on encrypted messaging apps before leaking onto social media.
