The trial for a Rio Grande Valley murder suspect is starting over after a judge declared a mistrial on Friday.

The family of Isaiah Castillo has waited five years for this trial, and they're ready to move forward and hopefully get justice.

While time has passed, they say they haven't forgotten the little things about him.

Isaiah was 18 years old when he was found shot near Donna Lake. Carlos Julian Contreras is charged in his death.

While the wait isn't over, his sister Aliza Martinez says the family still has hope.

"I'm feeling confident. We trust our attorneys with this whole process, and overall, we believe we are going to get justice for him," Aliza said.
