Boisean pleads guilty to killing child -- She 'was crying, and I lost control, and I hit her'

Edition Date: 07-09-2002

Luis M. Mejia of Boise pleaded guilty Monday to second-degree murder for the April beating death of his girlfriend´s 2-year-old daughter.

Speaking through an interpreter, Mejia told the court he threw the girl to the ground and beat her when she would not stop crying.

She "was crying, and I lost control, and I hit her," he said.

Fourth District Judge Deborah Bail will sentence Mejia, who could receive up to life in prison, on Sept. 30. His guilty plea resulted from negotiations with prosecutors, who had charged Mejia with first-degree murder, which could have earned him the death penalty.

Lorena Herrera died April 2 at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center. Medical reports said the toddler died from blunt trauma to the abdomen, which caused internal bleeding. The girl´s mother, Elizabeth Herrera, Mejia´s girlfriend, arrived at the family´s apartment minutes after the beating and called 911.

Ada County Deputy Prosecutor Jean Fisher said she offered Mejia the plea bargain because it would eliminate the need for Mejia´s 5-year-old son, who witnessed the beating, to testify. And, with the state of Idaho´s death penalty in question because of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, she said Mejia might not have received death if convicted.

D.C. Carr, Mejia´s public defender, said the agreement was good for his client because the lesser charge means Mejia would not get the death penalty.

Hey Luis.... this happens to be one of your lovely illegal alien buddies. Notice how the press doesn't mention that little tidbit, but the Boise Police do? The military needs to be on the border, and the Border Patrol in the interior removing your "dirt poor farmer" buddies, Luis. It's the prudent thing to do.
