Question by I’m gonna start another riot: What do you think of this Man charged in teen’s death faces forgery counts deported once but returned anyway?
A man in jail facing a manslaughter charge in the death of a Mesa teen was indicted earlier this month on three counts of felony forgery.Manuel Contreras-Galdean is awaiting trial in the November 2008 death of Kelly Tracy, who was a student at Gilbert’s Highland High School.After his arrest, a deputy went to Contreras-Galdean’s Apache Junction workplace, SAK-Electric and Plumbing, 56 S. Meridian Road, to investigate Contreras-Galdean’s background. That visit led to Contreras-Galdean’s brother, Leonel Contreras-Galdean, 30, being arrested on suspicion of forgery and identity theft. Two others were also arrested.

On June 4, a Maricopa County grand jury charged Manuel Contreras-Galdean with three separate forgery counts: October 2003, November 2004 and September 2007. Two of the charges are related to verification of employment forms. The third charge is related to Arizona’s employee withholding form.

If found guilty, Manuel Contreras-Galdean could face probation or between one and two-and-a-half years in jail for each felony forgery count.

Manuel Contreras-Galdean has admitted to being an illegal immigrant who once voluntarily returned to Mexico after being picked up by authorities following a traffic stop in New Mexico.

According to court records, he pleaded not guilty to the forgery charges on June 15.

He has also pleaded not guilty to the aggravated assault and manslaughter charges he faces from the Nov. 15 crash in Mesa that killed Highland band member Kelly Tracy and injured her brother, Matt.

Mesa police say Manuel Contreras-Galdean was impaired by alcohol when he failed to yield as he was making a left turn at the intersection of Sossaman and Guadalupe roads.

According to court records, the 12-day manslaughter and aggravated assault trial is expected to start in October. Court records state he was offered a plea bargain for 10.5 years in jail. The plea bargain is set to expire in July. He could face up to 20 years in jail for the manslaughter charge alone.

Whose responsibility is the health care of illegal immigrants?

Posted by | Posted in New Mexico Court Records | Posted on 09-06-2010

Fifty-one people — nearly all illegal immigrants — are facing a “life-or-death limbo” after a cash-strapped Atlanta charity hospital decided it must stop providing them free kidney dialysis treatments that were costing the hospital (or rather taxpayers) $50,000 per year.

That’s according to a heart-rending article in Saturday’s New York Times about the “excruciating choices” faced by Atlanta’s Grady hospital upon closing its outpatient dialysis unit. Over the years, the unit has been overrun by illegal immigrants, and it has thus become a major financial drain on the “taxpayer-supported safety-net hospital,” the Times explained in its lengthy article: “The Breaking Point: Hospital Falters as Refuge for Illegal Immigrants.”

Who is to blame for this heart breaking situation?

Not surprisingly, the Times blames America’s heartless polices on health care and immigration. Or as the paper explains, the moral dilemma Grady has faced is “a stark reflection of what happens when the country’s inadequate health care system confronts its defective immigration policy.”

Interestingly, though, the Times’ mentions nothing about the responsibility of Mexico’s government toward its own citizens, whom it all but encourages to immigrate illegally to this country. (Most of the illegal immigrants at Grady appear to have been from Mexico.)

Nor is there any suggestion that Mexico’s richest taxpayers, men like Carlos Slim – the world’s richest man and a major Times shareholder) — ought to part with a tiny fraction of their fortunes (Slim’s worth $59 billion) to help with the dialysis treatments of their fellow Mexicans. Couldn’t some of Mexico’s vast oil revenues also help pay for the dialysis treatments?

Grady, for its part, has been in quite a moral quandary over its responsibility to the illegal immigrants. Upon closing its dialysis unit, it has gone onto spend tens of thousands of dollars per patient to pay for their dialysis elsewhere — and to even cover travel expenses to Mexico. However, hospital spokesmen all but acknowledge that at some point in the near future the funds will not be available to pay for dialysis. What’s more, it seems unlikely that these patients will be getting free dialysis back in Mexico.

That Mexico’s own government (and its richest citizens) are apparently unwilling to chip in to provide such care is interesting in one respect. In the past, Mexican officials have been full of outrage when one of their citizens in America has been sentenced to death — following a murder trial in which local authorities failed to notify Mexico’s consular officials that a Mexican citizen was arrested for murder.

In fact, Mexico appears to have used all its resources available — even going to international courts — to obtain justice for these criminals. Yet when it comes to poor Mexicans needing health care, neither Mexico’s government – nor its richest citizens – are anywhere to be found. The Times makes no effort to find them for comment, either.

Could it all be a reflection of Carlo Slim’s influence at the self-described “paper of record”? While an intriguing possibility, these omissions probably have more to do with the particular worldview embraced by the Times — one that blames America for the world’s problems, including a lack of free dialysis clinics for illegal immigrants.http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2009/11/whose_responsibility_is_the_he.html

What do you think of latest immigration raids at seven Burger King restaurants ?

Posted by | Posted in New Mexico Court Records | Posted on 09-06-2010

Immigration authorities have targeted seven Burger King restaurants in New Castle County for routinely hiring undocumented workers, according to a federal search warrant unsealed this week.Twenty-seven unauthorized workers, 26 from Mexico and one from El Salvador, were arrested Aug. 13, Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesman Mike Gilhooly said. Seven men and seven women were detained, while 13 women were released for humanitarian reasons, such as being the sole caregiver for a relative, or health reasons. None of those arrested had a prior criminal record and only one had previously been deported, Gilhooly said, adding no other details about those arrested was available.

A total of 78 employees — between eight and 18 per location — suspected of illegally working at the restaurants were identified in the search warrant filed in U.S. District Court in Wilmington. The investigation is ongoing, Gilhooly said.http://www.delawareonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080830/NEWS/808300349

Some border towns begin strict enforcement of immigration laws

Standing in a cramped federal courtroom in Del Rio, Texas last month, illegal immigrant Walter Oscar Portillo-Machado pleaded with a judge for mercy. But he came to the wrong place for that.

The Salvadoran man was caught along a 210-mile stretch of the Texas-Mexico border that has been set up as zero-tolerance zone for illegal immigration. Instead of merely getting sent back home, immigrants here are arrested, prosecuted, and sometimes sentenced to prison before they are formally kicked out of the country.

The effort began late last year along a border area that includes the Rio Grande border towns of Del Rio and Eagle Pass. It has been hailed by federal officials as a creative use of local and federal resources to tighten the border.

While other border sectors avoided strict enforcement because they did not have enough jail space or prosecutors, authorities in the Del Rio area found bed space elsewhere in the region, assigned federal agents to help prosecute cases and began running illegal immigrants through a courtroom at a rate of one case per minute.

Immigration advocates have criticized the practice, saying it only moves the problem elsewhere along the border and may sacrifice civil liberties for the sake of efficiency.

“There’s nothing we’re doing that wasn’t already on the books,” said Hilario Leal Jr., a supervisory Border Patrol agent in the Del Rio sector. “It’s nothing new. We just started enforcing the law.”

The Del Rio sector also ended the widespread practice of “catch-and-release” that freed most non-Mexican immigrants with a piece of paper ordering them to show up in federal immigration court a month later — and almost no one did.

Most Mexican citizens with no criminal record who cross outside the Del Rio sector are still escorted back shortly after their arrest. Those from other countries are held in a detention center — not as criminals serving time — while the paperwork is being completed to return them to their home countries.

But in the Del Rio sector, every adult illegal immigrant, regardless of their home country, is criminally prosecuted and removed from the country after they have served his sentence.

“They know if they come (to Del Rio) they are going home, they are going to jail,” Leal said.

Before the effort began, illegal immigrants came across the river near Del Rio in droves, with Central and South American citizens often surrendering to agents because they knew they would be let go — after receiving food, water, medical care and sometimes a ride to a bus station, along with their notice to appear in court.

In recent years, the situation had become so hectic that Del Rio sector agents were lucky if they patrolled the border for two hours during an eight or 10-hour shift, Agent Cynthia Bilyk said. The rest of their time was spent processing the immigrants.

Agents in the sector were averaging about 500 arrests a day, Leal said. Now there are fewer than 100 daily arrests, and the reforms are credited with reducing arrests by about 29 percent so far this fiscal year.

While the changes have curbed arrests, freed up agents and other resources, they have not slowed the traffic at the federal courthouse.

The day Portillo-Machado stood shackled and handcuffed in the courtroom, he was surrounded by more than 30 defendants facing the same charge. The judge handled about one guilty plea a minute.

When his name was called, Portillo-Machado said “Cupable,” which means guilty in Spanish. He then asked the judge for forgiveness and was later sentenced to 120 days in jail.

Court staff said the day’s docket was light in comparison with the average crowd of would-be immigrants that often overflows the courtroom.

Magistrate Judge Dennis Green said the cases are heard quickly, but each defendant meets with a court-appointed lawyer before going to court. If there is any question about an immigrant’s potential defense, that person’s case is heard separately, the judge said.

The federal court’s two Del Rio magistrate judges are hearing about 2,100 cases a month. Their counterparts farther from the border in West Texas are averaging about 140.

Opponents say the process just pushes the problem to other sectors.

“The border is like a balloon,” said El Paso immigration lawyer Felipe D.J. Millan. “If it expands in one area, guess what? It still comes in from another area.”

Millan also worries that the reforms in the Del Rio sector and a similar plan in southern New Mexico are simply backdoor efforts to criminalize immigrants.

So I need a little Immigration help here. Plz if you are going to judge me or my husband dont answer or read.?

Posted by | Posted in New Mexico Court Records | Posted on 02-06-2010

Sorry if this is a little long!

Hello.
I am 12 week and 5 days pregnant today and am wondering a hole lot of things. First of all I am American and my husband is Mexican. We met in the United states when we were 15yrs old and got married when we were 18. His mother brought him to the US when he was only 11 years old and he had no idea he was illegal til he was 16 and his mother told him why he could not get his drivers license. He knows perfect english and spanish, got good grades when he was in school (in the US) but when he was 18 he was driving home from work and got pulled over simply cuz of the fact (straight out of the officers mouth) that “He looked suspicious” meaning he was a bald mexican. He was ticketed and ordered to come to court well the day he was supposed to go to court he missed it cause he forgot well 2 days later 2 or 3 cops knocked on his door when he opened the door they tackled him to the ground (although he was not resisting arrest) and took him off to jail he sat in a cell over night while his sister got money together to bail him out once the money was together they paid his bail for him to get out but while he was leaving immigration caught him and asked him they gave him a chance to appear in front of a judge to plead his case and he got voluntary departure to be back in mexico by november 19th 2008 and he was in mexico before that date.

Well now that I am pregnant I cant stay in mexico I dont like the doctors nor do I like the lifestyle (there are bullets in the side of our house from a guy “just playing around with his new toy” that is no place for a baby to grow up. My husband is a very responsible man and I want him to be there while our child is born I have set a Visitor visa Appointment for November 9th 2009 so he could possibly be in the US by christmas and be there for the birth or our child on March 17th 2010 if everything does go right.

Do you think it is possible that he will get the visa if I am going to be having his baby?

some info to look at about him.
1) He was only illegal in the US for 6 months after he turned 18 then he was on voluntary departure for 5 months (so he has no bars)
2) He has no criminal record in the US except that one time he missed court
3) He WILL be returning back to Mexico after his visa is up
4) We are going to be trying to get our marriage visa so he is not going to “immigrate”
5) the only reason we are in need of this visitor visa is because there is no other visa that will let him come over to the US and be there while his child is born or else we’d do it…

Some problems-
1) He was Illegal in the US
2) We dont own ANYTHING in mexico we rent a house that his grandmother owns
3) He doesnt make much money here so we cant put an outrageous amount of money in his bank he only makes about 1500 pesos every 2 weeks.
4) He is married to a U.S. Citizen ( i know that usually hurts their chances of getting a visitor visa)
What else can make him inelgible for a visitor visa?

Some good things-
1) all his family is here
2) we are trying to get him a marriage visa (idk if that can help or hurt)
3) he has NO bars since he was only illegal less than a year
4) he has no criminal record
5) he has a job waiting for him when he gets back (the one he has now)

What are his chances of getting a visitor visa?
How is it him thats not respecting the Immigration laws? When his mother brought him over to the US at such a young age.

By the way Im not bashing what you said in any way I just really want to know why.
Thanks Ashley yes we know it will be harder but we are still going to try because the lawyer we have talked to said it will be a year and a half to get the visa (best case sceneario) and we do not have a year and a half the baby will be here in 6 months so we dont have that kind of time do u think there is a possibility he gets it? or is it basically a waste of money?
Also I think everything was or is the same with the laws cuz our lawyer (the one that got him voluntary departure) told us he would have no bars since he was only illegally in the US for 6 months
