Illegal alien Commits Several Crimes; Kills Woman But Free On Parole
Progressive prosecutor lets illegal immigrant teen off easy after 90-mph crash that killed 24-year-old woman
The father of 24-year-old Kaitlyn Weaver condemned a progressive DA's lenient probation-only sentence after deadly T-bone collision

A teenage illegal immigrant who killed a 24-year-old Colorado woman during a high-speed crash was given a lenient plea deal by a progressive district attorney that allowed him to walk free without serving any jail time.
The 15-year-old Colombian teen, who has not been publicly named because of state laws that shield the identity of underage criminal suspects, was sentenced to two years' probation and 100 hours of community service for the July 2024 death of Kaitlyn Weaver, her father, John Weaver, told Fox News Digital.
The office of Arapahoe County District Attorney Amy Padden offered the teen a plea deal if he admitted his guilt in the deadly crash.
The teen was racing his Jeep with other kids at speeds of 90 mph in a residential neighborhood in the Denver suburb of Aurora when he T-boned Weaver's vehicle at an intersection, her father said.
"It was an instantaneous death," John Weaver said.
Kaitlyn Weaver was waiting at a stop sign and speaking to her boyfriend on speakerphone at the time she was struck, he said. She was kept on life support for two days before she was taken off and her organs were donated.
The teen suspect was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide. At the time, the Weavers were told by the DA's office the case was a "no plea offer" case, John Weaver said.
However, in January, Padden, who received endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, informed the Weaver family her office would negotiate a probation plea deal.
"They said by doing two years' probation, that's probably more than the judge would give if he pleaded guilty," John Weaver said. "You don't have to participate in a bad system. If the judge wanted to sentence him to less, that's the judge's issue. What happened in this case is you (prosecutors) created it into your issue. Now you're part of the problem."
The Weavers' attorney, Matthew Durkin, called the deal "abhorrent," noting that Weaver was killed during the prime of her life.
John Weaver noted that the teen who killed his daughter was in the U.S. illegally and unlicensed.
"We had a collision where the immigration system and the criminal justice system collided, and now my daughter's dead," he said.
"She was an amazing human," John Weaver told "FOX & Friends" on Friday. "She spent her life trying to help people."
The teen had taken the uninsured Jeep without his mother's permission, according to local reports. His mother told authorities she planned to move him back to Colombia, but he has since applied for asylum.
Arapahoe County Assistant District Attorney Ryan Brackley said he "unequivocally" condemns the teen's "reckless and unlawful behavior, which had devastating and irreversible results."
"We believe the conviction to the highest charge in this case and the negotiated sentence acknowledges the seriousness of this preventable tragedy, and that no legal outcome can truly make up for the profound loss and void Kaitlyn’s loved ones will live with permanently," Brackley said.
In a Facebook post this week, Padden addressed Weaver's death while focusing on the dangers of speeding.
"We acknowledge Kaitlyn Weaver’s death was the direct result of a crash caused by an unlicensed teenager driving at nearly twice the posted speed limit," she wrote. "This tragic loss is a powerful reminder that it is not just alcohol or drug-impaired driving that takes lives. Driving at dangerous speeds has deadly consequences too, and they are felt by our entire community."

Mace delivers blistering impact statement, shakes hand of trans threat suspect’s father after bond is denied
Story by Jasmine Baehr • 17h • 4 min read
Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., praised a South Carolina judge Friday after bond was denied for the 19-year-old transgender activist accused of threatening to assassinate her. She also shook the hand of the suspect’s father.
Samuel Theodore Cain, who identifies as transgender and uses the name "Roxie Wolfe" online, was arrested May 15 by state agents for allegedly posting graphic threats targeting Mace and her children. Cain remains in custody, and a trial date has not been set.
The judge cited the seriousness of the threats during a hearing.
"Mr. Cain, I do believe that you are a credible threat, and I'm going to put you in on a no bond," the judge said. "The only condition bond I'm going to put on you right now is no contact with the victim."
Mace flew in from Washington, D.C., to deliver a victim impact statement in court Friday morning and speak to reporters afterward.
"I come before you today not just as a victim, but as a sitting member of the United States House of Representatives who has been the target of a direct and credible threat on her life," she told the judge.
She described how the threats forced her to change her routine, seek shelter and request increased law enforcement patrols for her home and congressional offices.
"This meant I was vulnerable. My staff was vulnerable. And my children were vulnerable," she said. "Threats like these are acts of terror meant to shake the foundations of democracy."
Outside the courthouse, Mace reflected on Friday's bond hearing and finally seeing Cain in person.
"My first thought was, he's huge," she said. "This guy was well over 6 feet, over 200 pounds. I'm 5-foot-6, 115 pounds. He’s twice my size. It was scary.
"As a mom, this was heartbreaking. All I could think about was his family. And my kids. My kids live in fear about being murdered."
She said she was surprised but thankful for the judge’s ruling.
"I’ve seen how women are treated in this state. I hope this gives women hope," she said. "If there’s a mentally ill man coming after us, we need to stand up for our rights. That’s what I saw the judge do today."
After the hearing, Mace approached Cain’s family and shook the hand of his father.
"I shook the hand of a father whose son threatened to kill me, not out of forgiveness, but out of grace," she later posted on X. "Strength is about standing your ground and we can be humble with humanity."
"I want to thank Samuel Cain’s family," she said during her remarks for the media. "Their humility meant a lot to me. As a mom, it meant something to see them show up. We’re all human. But threats like this have to come with consequences."
Mace said the threats were discovered by Capitol Police and were serious enough that her staff and law enforcement begged her to get to a safe location.
"This was serious. Nobody knew where he was," she said. "Law enforcement told me to go inside immediately. That’s how real it was."
She described the toll the threats have taken on her daily life.
"I face threats every day. This is the second person this year. But I receive death threats from trans activists and trans people every single day. And not a single U.S. attorney in the state of South Carolina or anywhere in the country has taken them seriously."
She warned that continued inaction could be deadly.
"One day, someone’s going to pull the trigger. Someone’s going to get a bullet. Someone’s going to die."
She also highlighted a broader pattern of violence and called out what she sees as a lack of accountability from Democrats.
"This case isn’t just about one man’s threats. It’s about a culture that tolerates violence against elected officials, especially women who speak up," Mace said. "We do not accept terror. The normalization of threats against public servants corrodes democracy from within.
"Not one Democrat has spoken up to say it’s wrong," she added. "Only Democrats blame the victim."
On social media, Mace shared a photo of Cain in an orange jumpsuit.
"This is not Roxie Wolfe, this is not a woman, and threatening my life is not a joke. Look at his smirk," she posted.
Mace ended her statement in court with a final plea for justice.
"I pray this young man finds God, who alone can change hearts of stone into hearts of flesh," she said. "Letting him walk away sends the message that threatening to kill a member of Congress is just another day without consequence. It is not. It is criminal. And it must be treated as such."
