'KILLER'S' UNDERWORLD'

ACTRESS SLAY' ILLEGAL LIVED IN BASEMENT DEN

By HEATHER GILMORE and DOUGLAS MONTERO

November 12, 2006 -- Diego Pillco, the teen accused of killing indie-film actress Adrienne Shelly for fear he would be deported, lived in hiding with his illegal-immigrant relatives in a basement boiler-room hovel owned by their construction boss.

Access to the dungeonlike lair the 19-year-old shared with his brother Wilson and cousin in Greenwood Heights, Brooklyn, is hidden behind the main stairs of a three-story brick apartment building. A small door leads to narrow plywood steps and the windowless underground home.

Placed around the dingy space last week were a pair of dusty construction boots, a collection of religious icons, bottles of Crown Royal whiskey, pirated soft-core porn, Spanish horror DVDs - and receipts for money wired back home to Ecuador.

A living room is set up in the boiler room, and there are two makeshift bedrooms, a kitchen area and a bathroom.

The three worked for their landlord, Luis Hernandez, owner of the BCG construction company, who charged them about $100 each per month for their three dim rooms. He docked their pay for the rent money, neighbor Frank Diaz said.

Pillco was arrested Monday and charged with second-degree murder.

He was working for Hernandez on Nov. 1, renovating a West Village apartment, when Shelly, who also wrote and directed and had an office in the building, complained about the noise.

She threatened to call the cops, and Pillco, fearing his illegal status would be discovered, followed her to her upstairs apartment and knocked her to the ground, police said.

Thinking the blow had killed her, Pillco hanged Shelly by a bedsheet from the shower rod to conceal the murder as a suicide, police said.

Been reading a lot about this lately. I guess this story has legs. When someone ordinary get killed by illegals, I seldom hear about it.

That's true. Illegals are raping, robbing and murdering ordinary Americans every day of the week. The Lieberal media wants to cover it up. They want you to believe the Big Lie that illegals just here to "share in the American dream." Too many of them are creating an American nightmare.

And this is where things get very interesting. About 98 of every 100 illegals crossing our border are Mexican males between the ages of 15 and 34.

Does anyone else strongly resent the fact that George W. Bush and his OBL buddies CONTINUE TO INSIST ON AMNESTY and put illegal aliens ahead of Americans??

Illegal aliens cost America billions of dollars every year, they're sucking the middle class dry. They're overloading our schools and closing our emergency rooms. OTHER than farmworkers, they're taking jobs away from Americans. They're filling our courts and our prisons.

DON'T WE HAVE A VOTE IF WE WANT THEM HERE OR NOT??

LUIS HERNANDEZ

This pig is the landlord and employer of the teen killer. This critter is most likely a legal immigrant who makes big money hiring illegal immigrants. This fat pig says "America has been very very good to me!!"

The more I think about it, what's the liklihood that farm workers and vineyard workers in CA are legal?

50% or less

Good chance the Pelosis hire 'non-documented' workers.

It's a lock!!!

About 75% of Americans are unhappy about it.

OTHER than farmworkers, they're taking jobs away from Americans.

Get rid of welfare and phony disability and there would be plenty of farm workers.

Don't we have a vote if we want them here or not??

Apparently not.

well first of all i must say people dont think before talking.. you cant be so judgmental.. people make mistakes or havent.. Mr. perfect. I was an immigrant to and nowadays am a professional WITH education, understanding and kindness. You certainly dont know about poverty.. people dying from hunger and people seeking for better future. NO because one immigrant has killed means all immigrants do.. how many American murders exist at this present time.. dont you watch the news.. dont you do research before giving an opinion.. and WE Immigrants dont judge all Americans because of one misbehaved citizen.. Mr Luis Hernandez made a mistake... but you know what mistake was it?... it was to offer an opportunity to a human being.. regardless of his immigration status.. he deserved a chance to work.. to help his family back in Ecuador. Yeah! unfortunately he turned into a murder.. but was Mr.Hernandez responsible of this misbahavior.. was he suppost to be aware of Diego's thought 24/7... come on.. you cant trust anyone.. no even yourself because out of the suddent life make you change... so please think twice before judging... you're not body....

I dont really even care what the Statue of Liberty says anyway. It was written, I believe by a French guy and so is just some guys idea of what we should do. I'm not impressed by what the French have done with France....

If I break into your house, do you think it's OK for me to live there? After all, I'm seeking a better future. By the way. What are the immigration policies in Equador? If I break into their country, will they let me stay there and collect government benefits and to take jobs from citizens of Equador? I doubt it.

That's nice. If you're legal, I hope that one day you can drop the "WE Immigrants" bit.

Though I doubt you will.

Oh yeah, why wasn't this Hernandez jerk arrested? He should be arrested and his assets seized according to the law that covers harboring and transporting illegal aliens.

His sock puppets were just voted out of a congressional majority. Yeah, I'd say a lot a people strongly resent GWB's amnesty.
