Another innocent American, a 16 year-old high school student due to a person here illegally, and impaired.

Disgusting, my heart goes out to those parents.

If you go to azcentral.com, the article is there.
This happened in Mesa, AZ, a suburb of 300,000 outside Phoenix.

Is this the town where the mayor told Arpiao (sp) that he shouldn’t enforce the immigration laws?

May that child rest in peace, and I pray for her brother’s full recovery.

Prayers up also for the rest of the family...

I wonder who employed this guy to drive the truck? Maybe he should be charged, too.

Certainly is, the police chief and the mayor didn’t like his enforcement sweeps.

He recently arrested many that were employed illegally in a company that had a CITY CONTRACT to clean buildings.

If we don’t know who has access to our buildings, homes, country we don’t stand a chance against terrorists.

He had to be working for somebody, illegally.

The police chief and the mayor have culpability for these deaths. They encouraged illegals to stay around by their public comments about the sheriff.

Hardly a day goes by without my hearing about some illegal driving drunk and killing somebody. How much more must we endure?

Let me see. The KKK is sued for millions because of the death of a Hispanic.

Need I ask?

AZ CENTRAL (typically in the case of illegals) won’t allow comments on the article.

Here is another article in the East Valley Tribune.

http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/130551

The students were on their way to the “Gilbert Days Parade”.
They are identified as Kelly Tracy and Matt Tracy.
Kelly played the sax and her brother the drums.

The collision was nearly head-on.

“Upon further investigation, police determined that Contreras-Galdean had been drinking and did not have a valid Arizona driver’s license.”

I’m sure that this accident wouldn’t have happened if he’d had an AZ drivers license and he wasn’t “living in the shadows”. /S

WE NEED A LIST OF VICTIMS SENT TO EVERY “OPEN BORDER” SUPPORTER. THIS CARNAGE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE!

Yes, I’m very angry. How many more Americans have to die?

Police said Contreras-Galdean turned left in front of the teenager’s Nissan sedan as he attempted to go north on Sossaman Road from Guadalupe Road at 6:30 a.m. Upon further investigation, police determined that Contreras-Galdean had been drinking and did not have a valid Arizona driver’s license.

http://www.abc15.com/content/news/phoenixmetro/story.aspx?content_id=bb12b830-9dc9-488e-86f4-f9ef14ed2dd2

Contreras-Galdean was taken into custody at the scene, suspected of being intoxicated, according to a court report. Police said he admitted to drinking the night before and in the early morning.

The report indicates he was convicted of DUI in Tempe last year.

The suspect also told police he had been in the U.S. illegally for 14 years, according to the court report.

Illegal, huh?

Does McPain know about this?

The Obomination would like him in his cabinet to push for ILLEGAL immigration, climate change (green - money grabs) and there was something else that RHINO oriented and it escapes me. Anyway, any “bipartisan” picks will be liberal Demoncrats and RHINO’s.

You in Arizona, please make a copy of the news article and mail or fax or email it to your Senators and Congresscritters.

It’s McCain’s lame immigration stance and he is also culpable. If the fence had already been built, and deportation had begun there’s a good chance this would not have happened.

The family needs to sue everybody they can. Where’s “my pretty pony boy” Edwards and can he file a lawsuit in Arizona?

This did not happen in Mesa, it happened in Gilbert about 3 miles from my house.

P.S. - We don't have any Sheriff Joe sweeps in Gilbert because as everyone knows Gilbert is a lilly white, Mormon community./sarc

Another tragedy that could have been avoided.

I don’t know how a parent copes with such a senseless loss that NEVER should have happened.

Just think, if Obama gets his way the ILLEGAL would have “free” health care. His 47 million number includes ILLEGAL ALIENS. Meanwhile, LEGAL citizens can go bankrupt paying medical bills.

LOL. The same thought crossed my mind. The absence of a license caused his drinking problem, his prior DUI, and now this "accident." After 14 years of living with such discrimination and dodging immigration officials, he should be rewarded with citizenship. Darn those hate-filled bigots who deny him his destiny.

Throw the book at this low-life!

Manuel should be praying hard that no men come calling with a very strong rope in tow.
