A man convicted of causing a crash on Pacific Coast Highway that killed the director of "A Christmas Story'' and his son is scheduled to be sentenced today.
Hector Manuel Velazquez-Nava faces a six-year state prison term.
Velazquez-Nava pleaded no contest to two counts of manslaughter in August in the deaths of Robert Clark and his son, Ariel Hanrath-Clark.
Authorities said Velazquez-Nava, an illegal immigrant, had a blood-alcohol content of .24 -- three times the legal limit.
“Hector Manuel Velazquez-Nava faces a six-year state prison term. “
While Mr. Clark and his son are dead forever.
How much of that will even be served.
Give him the 6 months, then shoot his eyes out.
I hate drunk drivers. An illegal alien drunk driver murdered my friend right after we graduated college. When drunk drivers finally succeed in murdering someone they have already been charged with DUI several times and are often driving with a suspended license. WHEN will the courts take this seriously?
Bump.
We love that movie. How sad.
The illegal criminal is only “looking” at 6 years behind bars for killing 2 people? Even if he got the max, he’ll be out in 2 years. I don’t supose he’ll get any time for DUI, driving without a license, or being here illegally. We should have a counter for all the US citizens killed by illegals.
I see Hector jumping out thru the bathroom window and skeedaddling southward between the sentencing and before his first day of whatever paltry sentence he receives.
Six years for two lives.
Bush will try to get him off.
And will this drunken jerk even be deported?
So how much of that will he actually serve?
And here's hoping that NYS county clerks don't give in to the gov.
I hope there are alot of “A Christmas Story” fans in prison.
A friend of mine lost his 12 year old in front of his eyes to an illegal speeding thru a ped zing. It destroyed him and his marraige.
Hopefully the cops let his contact the Mexican Consulate, or he won’t even two six months...
Forget prison. He ought to be dropped off by helicopter at the Mexican consulate. From 3,000 feet.
