NEW: The captain accused of operating an illegal charter boat that capsized in New York Harbor, killing a 27-year-old mother and her baby, is an illegal immigrant and is now in custody.
Authorities say Manuel Ernesto Hernandez-Umana does not have a captain's license and is accused of illegally operating the charter when the deadly trip turned tragic.
DHS says Hernandez-Umana crossed the border in 2007 and falsely claimed U.S. citizenship. The agency says it will ensure he is removed from the country after he faces justice.

Some of these people have colossal nerve. Unfortunately, two innocent people paid the price for his deception.
Huh? Wha? They knew the trip was deadly? Why did they get on the boat?
Where’s the Gomer Pyle SURPRISE pic?
Where is/was the US Coast Guard in the process of boat inspections and licensing/testing the charter boat captain?
Jeez! AFter the innocents die at his hand, this is discovered. Shameful!
Just shoot him in the face.
Drop his corpse from a C-130 over whatever rat hole he crawled out of
Bill that country for it.

The employer should also be held liable and charged for hiring an illegal alien, allowing him to operate a dangerously overloaded boat w/o a captain’s license and no life jackets for babies and infants.
The employer is just as culpable.
Both the perp and his employer should be prosecuted.
Absolutely.
But remember, the illegal alien who murdered a mother and her daughter is a beloved ‘neighborly’ killer to a group of azhos who hate and are always trying to murder ICE agents doing their jobs. God Bless ICE. Have AN ICE day!!!!
I guess the aho is really going to want to apply for “assylum” now. The far-left dumbasses will give it to him now.
Just start taking his organs out while he’s fully conscious and get them transplanted in others, ASAP.
I’m betting the “journalist” is calling him captain, because he was driving the boat.
I’m also betting he does not possess a CG Captain’s license.
Tell us you didn't read the second sentence of the excerpt without telling us:
Authorities say Manuel Ernesto Hernandez-Umana does not have a captain's license [...]Regards,
It is not clear what his employment status was. In one article Hernandez says he has been freelancing for the company since last year. Regardless of his employment status. the company is probably in big trouble since they set up the charter. Hernandez borrowed the boat from a friend which wasn’t certified for paying passengers. If I were a betting man, I would bet he didn’t have the proper licenses to drive a limo in NYC.
Always comment prior to reading the article...it’s an unwritten FR rule! Lol!
You got me!
