Colorado Democrats are making it easier for illegal immigrants to kill

A 24-year-old woman was driving home from work in Aurora, Colorado, when she was hit by a Jeep driven by an illegal immigrant going 90 miles per hour in a 45-mile-per-hour zone. She died two days later. Initially, the 15-year-old driver faced two years in prison before a George Soros-funded district attorney took office and offered him probation instead. Now, Colorado Democrats are on the verge of passing a new law that would make it easier for more illegal immigrants to commit crimes and stay in Colorado.

The names of minors who commit crimes are not released in Colorado, but it is known that the driver of the Jeep not only was in the country illegally, but he was driving without a license, with other minors in in the car, and that his mother did not have insurance on the car, as required by state law. Since the illegal driver had no insurance, the victim’s parents were left to pay the hospital bill for their daughter themselves.
