The illegal alien lobby obviously bought off everyone involved. What a joke. An american citizen would have been charged with manslaughter and gotten 20 years.
Cinthya Garcia-Cisneros, sentenced in Forest Grove fatal crash, exchanges words of remorse, forgiveness | OregonLive.com
January 31, 2014
Cinthya Garcia-Cisneros gave a nervous smile before she spoke through tears.
Dressed in jail scrubs Friday, she addressed the parents of Anna Dieter-Eckerdt, 6, and Abigail Robinson, 11, who were killed when she drove through a leaf pile where the girls were playing.
At trial this month, jurors convicted the 19-year-old of two counts of felony hit and run for failing to identify herself as the driver in the deadly crash. Circuit Judge Rick Knapp sentenced her Friday to probation.
I should have gone back, Garcia-Cisneros told the parents during Friday's hearing. I should have thought about you guys.
Within minutes of the crash, Garcia-Cisneros learned from her brother that shed struck the girls.
Bracken McKey, a senior deputy district attorney, told jurors Oregons hit-and-run statute required Garcia-Cisneros to go back to the scene and provide information to authorities.
Under state sentencing guidelines, Judge Knapp had the option of imposing only probation or a maximum of three years in prison. McKey did not make a sentencing recommendation Friday.
Brought to the United States as a young child, she had temporary permission to be in the country under the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, at the time of the crash. The program is available to young undocumented immigrants who entered the U.S. before turning 16, have been living here for at least five years and are in school, graduated from high school or served in the military. Applicants cannot have certain criminal convictions.
At the Friday sentencing, immigration attorney Courtney Carter said Garcia-Cisneros next stop is in immigration court.
There is so much wrong with the implications of your post it's hard to know where to start. First of all your statement categorizing her as illegal is either an outright lie or a failure to read the article you quoted, to wit.."Brought to the United States as a young child, she had temporary permission to be in the country under the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, at the time of the crash."
And even the grieving relatives acknowledged it as tragic accident and forgave Cynthia.
Using this tragedy in the amoral way you attempt reveals the truly despicable nature of your soul, again.
