Conway insisted that he had no bad intent, though. He argued that if Hernandez were here legally, he would be eligible for probation instead of a prison sentence. Because of his immigration status, he said, Hernandez faces a mandatory four years in prison, which he said would be severe enough for a man who never intended to kill his friend. That was the sentence the county probation department recommended. Gotta love the reasoning here never intended to kill his friend but he did and he should be eligible for probation for killing somebody , I don't following the lawyers resoning here

My thoughts when I read this is that the guy should serve his sentence and when he is on the way out the door, he should be handed a bill for his room and board for the time in jail..after it is paid..deport him. Just a thought.....

If he were in jail in El Salvador and had no one to come to the jail each day with food and water, he’d not last 3 weeks. It’s cushy to be placed in a US jail/prison. Television, weight room, law library, computers, etc.
Well, it would be if it weren’t for the nightly “booty calls.”
