Judge refuses to reduce bail for suspect in bus crash (MN illegal)

The $200,000 bail set for a woman charged with causing a school bus crash that killed four children in Lyon County will stand.

On Tuesday, Lyon County District Judge David Peterson denied a defense motion to reduce the bail amount in the case of 24-year-old Olga Marina Franco del Cid.

She is charged with criminal vehicular homicide following the bus crash that killed four students from the Lakeview School District on February 19th.

Franco's attorney, Manuel Guerrero, argued that another judge did not consider all the facts in the case when he set the bail amount.

Lyon County Attorney Rick Maes countered that Franco had lied during the investigation, and is considered a flight risk.

Muchas gracias, Jorge.

The president and congress should be required to attend each and every funeral of those killed by illegals.

I guess we still haven’t located the mystery boyfriend who was “actually driving” the van....who then wedged Olga into the driver’s seat so tightly that she had to be cut out of the vehicle. And then ran off.

I guess the judge has figured out that illegal alien equals flight risk.

Look closely. You’ll discover many of the license plates are from Illinois.

Why would any illegal be given bail? They should all be considered flight risks. They broke the law to come here they have no problem breaking it again to leave.

Since illegals are the poster children for ‘fleeing’ they should absolutely all be held without bail.....period.
