WOFFORD HEIGHTS, Calif. — Angel Gilberto Garcia-Avalos had been deported five times in just the past four years, yet each time he has managed to sneak from Mexico back into the U.S., where he ended up in more mischief: driving without a license, attempted burglary and felony weapons charges.
In August, he graduated to full-fledged mayhem, sparking a fire in the Sequoia National Forest that has already cost the government $61 million and left some of the country’s most beautiful landscape scarred for years to come.
Garcia, who pleaded guilty last month and faces 13 months in prison, had only recently been released from the Kern County Jail. He likely would have been deported again, but local authorities were unable to report him to immigration authorities because of California’s new sanctuary city law, which prohibited the sheriff from communicating with federal agents.
Federal agents now say they will kick Garcia out of the country once he serves his latest sentence, but the damage has already been done.
At a point along State Highway 155 through the Sequoia National Forest, the smell of cedar gives way to the stench of soot. Ash-blackened trees above and below the roadway show the path of the blaze.
Investigators determined that the spark came from a Nissan Maxima that Garcia was driving over a rough dirt trail near Cedar Creek. Garcia tried to drive over a berm and hit a tree. The hot muffler on his car ignited grass parched by years of drought, investigators said in an account filed in federal court.

Exactly.
Parallel to what Trump said—we’re treating illegal aliens better than our veterans. Add to that, a 5 time deported, illegal alien arsonist is treated better than American ranchers who put meat on our tables.
This thing about the vets being ordered to repay their re-up bonuses while we send billions in bundled cash to Iran has me SO angry!
The outrages just never stop with this criminal regime.
I hear ya. The bastard should be doing 25 to life and then hanged.
“...will kick Garcia out of the country once he serves his latest sentence...”
13 months isn’t long enough, but WHY should American taxpayers furnish 3 hots and a cot for this perp for another single day??
Demand the Mexicans come get him and incarcerate him. He’s their criminal, not ours.
Or just drop him in the middle of the Mexican desert-—preferably from 30,000 feet.
And the border control which has been dispirited by Jorge Busho and castrated by O'DumDum will do little to keep him out.
IF Trump wins, he'll have his work cut out for him with an impeachable Congress (Repugnants and demonRats) fighting him at every turn.
He should get at least ten years. I’m not for executing him.
Put him in a Ringling Circus canon and shoot him back across the border without a net.
I would be all for it, but they won’t make him spend a day in jail down there. And then he’d be back up here again. Next time he’ll kill people.
That’d work for me. ;-)
I agree with those types of consequences to people who don’t belong here and are trying to destroy our country. There are some here who disagree with use of appropriate force and dealing appropriate consequences to bad behavior.
Over shark-infested waters. Fish gotta eat too. :-)

It costs the taxpayers 50k a year. Why incarcerate the bastard? One .30-06 round costs about $1.00.
They should call it the "spit on the memory of Kate Steinle" law.
Pushed by the Mexicans in the State legislature, who are NOT Americans and don't belong there, they work relentlessly to advance their cause of invasion and takeover.
And this is the result. Death and destruction, followed by Mexican thuggery in government.
Has anybody seen any estimates on dollar amount and time to build Trump’s wall?
Man made climate change?
No shit.
I'm guilty of thinking extreme prejudice.
I ran into a forest service lady (super cool, an old schooler) up in an area where I was looking for gold a few years back. She noted to me to “be careful, it’s harvesting season” and that people with 60 pounds of weed had been busted coming out a while back. The prior year growers had started a fire that went to 10,000 acres for a diversion...
BET ON IT.
PENDEJO!!! I was on a road trip and they had that park nearly closed. Now we know what caused it.
And “mischief?” Really? Mischief? Repeat felon and dangerous criminal? Mischief is putting dog poop in a flaming bag at a door stop.
