Illegal Alien Convict Freed For Not Getting Speedy Trial

Quote:
An illegal immigrant drug dealer who fled to his native Mexico after orchestrating the murder of an Iowa teenager is free because his conviction was overturned by an appellate court that ruled he was denied a speedy trial while he was a fugitive from U.S. justice.

The astounding case dates back more than a decade, when the illegal alien (Juan Humberto Castillo-Alvarez) drug lord ordered the execution-style murder of a 15-year-old northwest Iowa boy over a drug debt. The teen, rumored to be a police informant, was kidnapped and severely beaten before getting shot.

Castillo-Alvarez evaded U.S. authorities for a decade, hiding out in his Mexican hometown until spring of 2008 when he was finally extradited, tried and convicted of kidnapping, conspiracy and second-degree murder. He was subsequently sentenced to five decades in prison for the atrocious crime, which was not his first.

Incredibly, the Iowa Court of Appeals overturned the conviction last September, ruling that the illegal immigrant murderer was not granted a speedy trial guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Gee - can't Polanski claim the same thing.? He fled too. Oh wait - he's not Mexican. My bad.

I don't believe the article. When a court determines whether someone's speedy trial rights were violated, they don't count days chargeable to the defendant... only days chargeable to the prosecution.

Those who don't believe the article are living with their head in the sand. Look around you. Unless of course you live in MARS!

In regards to human rights here I will conservatively interpret the constitution and say fire the DA before more folks get let free.

Can't just hold folks for decades you know.

From Quentin: "Toronado, I think you've got a reprehensibly immoral outlook that sets the human race back a millenia and essentially thinks of all wars as just and total wars, wherein an innocent civilian population is and should be at the mercy of their government (or even other problematic citizen) and deserves to be slaughtered en masse by the enemy if they happen to live somewhere unfortunate (and I think you're remarkably naive about civilians' options, especially in a time of war), while also seeming to argue that might makes right.

But I'll tell you what, unlike the other people I was haranguing here, you're consistent. I can respect that."
