Follow-up: The illegal alien Cottonwood driver’s history

By Michelle Malkin • February 27, 2008 07:21 AM

The illegal alien Cottonwood. MN van driver charged with killing four young children in a horrible schoolbus crash had a bit of a history with the law. Blind law that apparently ignored her immigration status–and that of her “boyfriendâ€

The woman charged with causing the fatal school bus crash in southwestern Minnesota was pulled over by police a month before the accident on the same highway, and in what appears to have been the same minivan.

Her boyfriend, who was driving the van at the time, was ticketed for driving without a license, according to a Minnesota Public Radio report.

Early on Jan. 16, 2008, a woman who identified herself as Alianiss Morales was riding in the minivan on a stretch of Highway 23, about 40 miles from the spot of last week’s fatal crash that killed four students from Lakeview Public School. A Kandiyohi County deputy pulled over the Plymouth Voyager after noting the license plate wasn’t easily visible.

The driver, Samuel Rivera Melendez, had a learner’s permit but not a license. His girlfriend told the officer she had no state ID card or driver’s license

MISSED OPPORTUNITY. 4 American children pay with their lives for Minnesota's sanctuary state policy. Bureaucrats, politicians and the police are so concerned about not making invaders uncomfortable or disturbing their "rights" that they essentially have allowed this tragedy to happen. I see them as fully compliant!!!
