A 26 year old police officer was killed by a drunk driver who ran away because he was here illegally.

Ramon Felix Pineda stood mute in 52-2 District Court before Judge Kelley Kostin, who denied bond based on the severity of the charges and his status as an illegal resident of the United States. "I don't find any comfort the bond would give Mr. Pineda the conviction to show in court," Kostin said.

This is horible.

For a 73-year-old disabled East Hartford woman, the life she had before Alejandro Cuy Xum raped and beat her early one morning is gone forever.

And gone too is the canine companion that Cuy Xum also beat when he sneaked into the woman’s apartment just after 4 a.m. on July 18, 2005.

Narus had sought a 25-year prison sentence for Cuy Xum, a Guatemalan native who had illegally been in the United States for less than a month when he was arrested by East Hartford police.

The woman’s electric wheelchair was parked next to her bed, Narus said, making it obvious to anyone that she was vulnerable and essentially defenseless. Rather than simply taking whatever valuables he could and leaving the apartment, Cuy Xum responded to the woman’s vulnerability by raping and beating her.

25 years is too good for this animal. What if this had happened to politican's family? Maybe then we'd get some enforcement. How can people who have the secret service protecting them ignore the safety of regular people who don't have armed guards protecting them? How can they say that we're just "racist" or "bigots" or "nativists" for being concerned about our safety?
