Wreck suspect here illegally, officials say
Accused drunken driver remains in custody in the accident, which killed 3 in a family

A man accused of causing a fiery wreck that killed a family of three on the East Freeway is in the country illegally, authorities said.
Juan Felix Salinas, 42, voluntarily returned to his home in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, two years ago, officials said. But he returned to the U.S., eventually making his way back to the Houston area.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said Monday they have placed an immigration hold on Salinas but had no other information about his past.
Salinas remained in police custody Monday, charged with three counts of intoxication manslaughter in the deaths of Tenisha Williams, 26; her husband, S.J. Williams; and her son, Xavier Brown, 2. His bail has been set at $90,000 — $30,000 for each death.
Houston police said Salinas was speeding and rapidly changing lanes about 8:30 p.m. Saturday when he rear-ended a Toyota Corolla in the 8700 block of Interstate 10.
The Toyota caught fire and eventually was engulfed in flames. The family was pronounced dead at the scene.
Salinas, who suffered minor injuries in the wreck, had a blood-alcohol level of .24 — three times the .08 legal limit for intoxication in Texas.
When the van slammed into the Toyota, Salinas had been free on bond from a March 31 family violence incident in Jacinto City.
The case remains open, authorities said.
On Saturday, bystanders struggled to save the young family. Some used hand-held fire extinguishers to hold back the flames while others attempted to pry open the doors.
Felinda Williams said she was grateful to everyone who tried to save her daughter, grandson and son-in-law.
"At least somebody cared enough," a grieving Williams said Monday. "They put themselves in danger trying to help them."
Williams said she will closely follow the case against Salinas as it progresses.
"When he's in court, I'm going to be in court," she said. "He tore a whole family apart."

DWI perp who killed 3 is illegal alien

Yesterday, you probably saw this tragic story by the Chron’s Mike Glenn:
Out of curiosity, I ran the guy’s name to find what I could about his criminal record. And wouldn’t you know it? The scumbag didn’t have a driver’s license — just a Texas ID card, frequently obtained by illegal immigrants.Quote:
Brandon Brown was driving on I-10 early Sunday when he saw the wreckage that had been snarling traffic for several hours.
Only later would he learn the car was his sister’s, and that she, her new husband and her 2-year-old son had died in the flaming wreckage. They were victims, police say, of a drunken driver whose blood-alcohol level was three times the legal limit.
Police said the driver of the van, Juan Felix Salinas, 42, was treated for minor injuries at Memorial Hermann Hospital, where his blood-alcohol level tested at three times the .08 legal limit for intoxication in Texas.
Salinas, who was out on $1,500 bond for a previous charge of assaulting a family member, is facing three counts of intoxication manslaughter, police said.
And sure enough, a follow-up story by Glenn confirms my suspicion:
I don’t know how to put this any more plainly: the lawlessness of Central America is pouring across our southern border.Quote:

So this man can pay 10% of $90,000 = 9,000 and run across the border again "what a cheap price for this young family's life"Quote:

I think its time for a new government
A government that refuses to protect it's people is no longer a government' .... it is a Entity (Cancerous grouth) that must be removed...
- The problem isnt the illegals... the problem is OUR GOVERNMENT
- Until you vote them out... and threaten the new official with the same we will be in the same boat 2 years from now.
- If you fail to act... then you now become the enabler of the problem
- Remember... if you pay for crap... you get crap; dont expect anymore
Sometimes I wonder if the Bush administration doesn't allow this to happen in hopes that the American ppl will become so frustrated and desperate that we will eventually give into his Comprehensive Immigration Reforum.
