DO YOU, think this illegal immigrant who killed a women was treated fairly?
A 25-year-old migrant worker who fled a hit-and-run crash that killed a 23-year-old Dodson woman pleaded guilty to criminally negligent homicide today in Multnomah County Circuit Court.
Rosendo Corona Rosales also pleaded guilty in front of Judge Eric J. Bergstrom to failure to perform the duties of a driver. Under a plea agreement, Corona Rosales will spend 58 months in jail and be deported to Mexico when his sentence is up.
On the morning of July 14, 2006, Kimberly McDaniel went for her customary morning run along a frontage road in the Columbia River Gorge. Rosales Corona’s car left the highway, striking McDaniel with the front of her car. She was thrown 15 to 20 feet into the bushes with massive head injuries and other major trauma.
A passing couple, who thought they spotted a life jacket — really McDaniel’s orange T-shirt — went to her aid. Trauma surgeons performed two emergency surgeries in an attempt to relieve pressure on her brain, but she died 30 hours later.
Doctors told her mother and stepfather — Janet and Allen Tremain — that Kimberly would have had a 40 to 50 percent chance of surviving if she had gotten immediate medical help. Instead, she lay bleeding from a ruptured jugular vein for nearly an hour. Her chances dropped to 5 or 10 percent.
“What kind of person leaves someone to die alone like that?” Janet Tremain asked during a statement she made to the court. “I wonder how can any human being do that to another, how can he drive away and not give any thought to what he did? He let Kimberly lie there in the bushes, suffering and in pain.”
Investigators with the Multnomah County Vehicular Crimes Team recovered a passenger side-mirror from the car that struck McDaniel, but precious few other clues.
In October 2006, they recovered a 1987 Nissan Sentra in Wenatchee, Wash. The mirror recovered at the scene was a perfect match for one missing from the Sentra. A year to the day after McDaniel died, Detective Jay Pentheny of the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office and Detective Jason Servo of the Gresham Police Department arrested Rosales Corona as he walked down a street in Lodi, Calif.
The two were acting on a tip that Rosales Corona — who had been living in The Dalles after entering the country illegally and then returning after the crash — was back in the U.S. and living in California

1. Horrible.
All these fools jumping up and down screaming about illegals getting health care ought to be more hopping mad that they are doing nothing about this illegal immigration problem.
Stick around this board for a while. You'll see a bunch of stories about people being "hit and run" by illegal Mexicans. They never have insurance and the NEVER stop!
The police ought to stop their racial profiling of blacks and start pulling over every Mexican they see... You can bet that 99 percent of them don't have insurance.
2. Not a biased link "Stop the invasion"......LOL.
3. No! The sentence should have been much harsher. Depraved indifference! leaving this injured woman to die should double the sentence.
Before being released from prison this person should be fingerprinted, DNA taken and have a monitoring bracelet attached to make sure he never re-enters the US again. Then immediatedly deported to the farthest point in MX away from the US.
4. LOL! like another poster mentions "not a biased link.....or avatar name either"....LOL
lets see; 58 months in jail and be deported to Mexico.....I would say yes!
5. I find it very disturbing to see advovates for illegals laughing like this is some kind of joke.LOL 58 months deported to Mexico. How is a woman losing her life by a drunk driver funny ?And by a drunk driver who fled and advocates for illegals wish to inject-LOL-.I just do not see the humor in any of this. I would of liked to see him have got life.Deporting him solves nothing.He will be back the next day.Can anybody tell me, do churches condone drinking and driving by illegals or does the church feel its best to forgive and move on ?
6. hey should saw off his hands and feet, problem solved.
7. that is only four years for taking the life of a human being, a citizen at that. And people feel that is fair. But they whine when illegals are targeted for deportation. How sad is that. He should have been executed. Eye for an eye.
8. No,not fair. He should have a life sentence.
Same thing happened to my best friend. Luckily,she was jogging with someone else so she got help right away. She didn't die,but is permenantly disabled. The drunk illegal that ran her down and then left her on the side of the road to die like a dog, got 6 months. He got 6 months,she got a lifetime of pain and disability.
Someone who knowingly injures someone and does nothing to help should get life if that person dies.
