Man charged in smuggling attempt that left 4 dead
PHOENIX (AP) -- An Eloy man has been indicted on federal charges accusing him of participating in a smuggling scheme that resulted in the deaths of four illegal immigrants.
Federal officials say Juan Moreno Gonzalez was identified as the driver of a van that was carrying about 20 illegal immigrants when it was being pursued by police on Oct. 26.
When the van was finally stopped, some of the people inside jumped into an irrigation canal to escape authorities. Four of them drowned.
A federal indictment charges Moreno with three counts: conspiracy to transport illegal aliens, transporting illegal aliens and transporting illegal aliens resulting in death.
Moreno's attorney, Eugene Marquez, said Friday that his client will plead not guilty next week.
If convicted of the most serious charge, Moreno could face life in prison or a death sentence.

Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.
