Eswin Mejia Fled to Honduras to Evade Prosecution for Killing Iowan Sarah Root in a Drunk Driving Accident

In January 2016, Mejia, an illegal alien, was arrested for vehicular homicide, killing Sarah Root in Douglas County, Nebraska. His blood alcohol content was three times over the legal limit. He was arrested and released on a bond in February 2016 and subsequently fled the country to evade prosecution.

In the aftermath of this tragedy, Sarah’s Law was introduced in the United States Congress and was later added as an amendment to the Laken Riley Act. The law requires illegal aliens who have committed crimes against Americans to be detained. This was the first piece of legislation President Trump signed into law.

Will judge Boasberg rule it is illegal to return a killer once he has fled the country?

This guy should have been "cross-shipped" to the gangster prison in El Salvador.
Good place for him.

Having said that, we cannot rely on Salvador for warehousing these perps for the long term.
Either beef up the facilities at Guantanamo and USE them, or...
... build a new mega-prison here similar to the one in Salvador.

Too much of a "concentration-camp" for your tastes?
Too bad.
I say, what works... works.

Sorry if you don't like this post.

I think El Salvador will house these people as long as we pay.

As far as building a prison like theirs here...Ain't. Gonna. Happen.
