NEW HAVEN — For one last time, the woman faced the man who repeatedly beat and raped her, and she told her story.
Clearly moved by the victim’s “extraordinary dignity and immeasurable courage,” Superior Court Judge David Gold Thursday sentenced Jose Angel Moreno-Hernandez to serve 80 years in prison for what he did to the young woman and her family.
She was in the courtroom with her mother, father, sisters, boyfriend and about 25 other supporters, including the police officers and detectives who found and arrested the defendant a few hours after the prolonged attack in her car and then at East Rock Park.
On the other side of the room sat Moreno-Hernandez’ brother, Marvelio Moreno-Hernandez.
The defendant, in an orange prison jumpsuit and leg irons, wore an earpiece so he could hear a translation of the emotional victim impact statements.
He showed no emotion. But he did apologize, saying, “I don’t know what happened.”

WTF is he even DOING in this country?
Acting as a potential voter for Obama which is why Eric Holder sues states to let him stay.
The headline says he's a "New Haven" man. He's not a New Haven man he's an illegal Mexican.
The woman now ought to sue New Haven and the Federal Government for not enforcing immigration laws.
[ Sorry... he’ll likely die behind bars. Since he is 29 now, 85% of the 80 years is 68 years and add that to his current age, its a death sentence. He’ll be up for parole when he turns 97. ]
Unless Zero par4dons him on his way out of the White Hut..
====================================================
He assaults the women American born thugs won't assault.
Sounds like an open invitation on our women for destitute men of other countries.
Wonder why I am for the Death Penalty??
Im waiting for the pendulum to move to the right, to the extreme right.
(80 x 0.85) + 29 = 97.
Hope the prison system has a good retirement program. With out good behavour he could be in until he’s 109.
Reminds me of the thread, where some 95 year old guy got five years, but his lawyer had it reduced to life.
And now the rest of can feed and house this basta rd for the rest of his life at OUR EXPENSE. I say, put him out of his misery for good, then ship his remains back to Mexico, “collect”.
Come on MeganC. Defend this poor minority from the racist, oppressive judicial system. He got 80 years. That’s a death sentence if he serves the whole thing. How cruel, right?
Yes, but New Haven is a shan't-issue city. I have friends who applied 2 years ago who are still waiting for a ccw permit.
Gee, the DOJ just slammed East Haven, right next door, for being unfriendly to illegals. They must of missed him.
