Rope is eco-friendly. Then throw his carcass through a wood-chipper and use it to fertilize a field where his other illegal buddies are working - just to make a statement.
Reality says: Unless it's Kate's family or small circle of close friends the majority of Americans don't remember the incident and don't give a shit if the Beaner becomes a Hollywood star.
They couldn't even get him on weapons charges (possession of a stolen firearm, carrying a firearm without a license) because the prosecutor phoned it in. What's the damn hurry about deporting him anyway? It hasn't even been ten years yet.
His claim: He found the gun (which was stolen from a cop car 4 days earlier) and it just went off. The bullet ricocheted and just happened to hit the woman. Prosecution claim: He had been in possession of the gun for 4 days. He intended to shoot the woman in the back (motive unknown), but aimed so badly he hit the dock instead, and it just happened that the ricochet put the bullet back on the intended course.
Either story includes a low-probability event - the ricochet just happening to hit the woman - but as far as I can tell from news reports, the evidence that she was hit by a ricochet is the clearest thing in the case. What was proven beyond reasonable doubt: Garcia was holding the gun when it fired negligently or deliberately, and it ricocheted and killed her. So her death seems unintentional, but was a direct result of Garcia's criminal acts (he was a prohibited person to even hold a gun). That's manslaughter, with the degree possibly depending on whether he fired deliberately or negligently. But the prosecution muddied the waters with a fairy tale about Garcia aiming at where the bullet went after a ricochet, and I think that when the jury rejected that, they also rejected some of the proven facts.
markm, we're on the same page here. For whatever reason, the prosecutor didn't want the "W" for this case. But if it had been you or I, and the charge had been the simple carrying without a license, our asses would have been UNDER the jail.
Deported, to return next week to get his fat debit card in New York City.
ReplyDeleteHe'll be back in-country before the year is over.

ReplyDeleteCalifornia not only has zero respect for actual citizens, they spit on their graves and in the faces of the victim's familes when they do this.
ReplyDeleteLeftist Marxist Democrats crowing about how tough Biden is on ILLEGAL ALIENS in 3, 2, 1......

Wait, WHAT? Why not give him a fair trial. Then, take him out back and shoot him.
ReplyDeleteNah, do it on the front steps and serve free hot dogs and beer.
DeleteOle Grump.
There was an element of public executions that tended to give young criminals a glimpse of what could happen if they continued with their ways,
