A judge denied bond for an illegal immigrant from Mexico charged with driving drunk and allegedly killing two boys who were riding bicycles on a South Carolina sidewalk.
Eri Otoniel Roblero Perez appeared before a Spartanburg County judge on April 13 and was refused release, WSPA reported. Spartanburg County Solicitor Barry Barnette called Perez a danger to the community, as well as a flight risk because he is not a U.S. citizen. Each felony DUI count carries up to 25 years in prison.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed ICE filed a detainer against Perez and said he crossed into the country illegally at an undetermined time. Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis stated, “This criminal illegal alien from Mexico had no business being in our country, and now two boys are dead because he decided to drive under the influence.” (RELATED: Illegal Alien Held On $5 Million Bail After Being Charged With Killing Couple In Drunk-Driving Wreck)
