Is it true or not true that color television was invented by a mexican?

2or 3 or more persons have told me that the color television was invented by a mexican which i find hard to believe because I believe that I have never heard of a mexican inventing something that is important and transendental, but i seem to remember that i saw an old doentary movie about that on t.v. a few years ago, I believe it was on spanish language television most likely on channel 34 of t.v. but i don't remember on what exact channel I watched that in that doentary they showed all the life story of that mexican that invented the color television and he ended up getting killed in an automobile accident and several people in the u.s.a. were trying to buy off the rights, copyrights to his invention before he died, i believe that they said that his name was ENRIQUE CAMARENA GONZALEZ which kind of strange and odd because i seem to remeber several years ago i saw on t.v. news that an american D.E.A. (Drug Enforcement Agency) agent was killed by mexican drug traffiquers in Mexico and his name was I believe ENRIQUE CAMARENA.
