News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Ramon Hernandez-Martinez will probably die prison, but his victims say that his bloody crime spree continues to haunt them.

On Monday, Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Brian Ishikawa sentenced Hernandez-Martinez to 127 years in prison for a string of crimes including, robbery, carjacking and assault, which led police on a chase through the West Valley in January.

In a separate case, Ishikawa sentenced Hernandez-Martinez to a life sentence for repeatedly stabbing a sheriff's deputy in a courthouse elevator.

Before he was arrested in the carjacking case, Hernandez Martinez, an undocumented immigrant, was a career criminal with cases dating back to 1988.
