Yes, the Marines referred to him as a “stellar” Marine. But that was on the job. They had no idea what he was up to off-duty. Maybe he was just fine before the involvement with Maria. Maybe he just snapped the night he killed her.
His “powerful friend” in Mexico is the extradition agreements they have with the US. In the latest article in JDNews, they indicated Mexico won’t extradite him if he faces the death penalty. In 2001, the Mexican Supreme Court ruled that life in prison was cruel and unusual punishment. A defense atty that was questioned indicated he might face 40 years if they wanted to get him back to North Carolina.
Maybe we should let Mexico have him. See how long he lasts there. Let wifey go down for it. If he cares he will come back. But 40 years isn’t even close. If there was ever a death penalty case this is it.
I’m still wondering if he is even alive.
