Man faces 8 years in gunfire incident

CARMEL - An illegal immigrant who drove from Texas to Mahopac to reunite with the mother of his three children, only to shoot at her and threaten her new boyfriend with a gun, faces eight years in prison after pleading guilty to a weapon charge.

Marvin Adalborto Sorto, 24, who is from El Salvador, remains in the Putnam County jail while awaiting a scheduled April 4 sentencing, Putnam County District Attorney Kevin L. Wright said in a statement yesterday.

Sorto entered his plea to a single felony count of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon before county Judge James Rooney on Wednesday, just before jury selection in his trial was to begin, Wright said.

Police said Sorto drove from Houston to Buckshollow Road on July 16 in an effort to get back with his former girlfriend. When he saw her returning from breakfast with another man, he pulled out a pistol and pressed it against the new boyfriend's stomach while ordering him into a car, police said. He then squeezed off a shot at his ex-girlfriend as she ran away, missing her, they said.

The boyfriend broke free while Sorto got in his car and left, driving to a Route 6 motel, where town police arrested him.

Wright said that if Sorto isn't deported when released from prison, he would face five years' parole. Assistant District Attorney Joseph Charbonneau took the plea.

why don't any of the illegals marry before they have children? It seems that there is something going on that most illegal women are unmarried and have two or three anchor children which the american taxpayers are paying for. We had large campaigns against having children out of wedlock but since so many illegals are having children out wedlock the campaign has disappeared. The same with a drug free america and buy american. There appears to be a deliberate attempt to destroy american values and make us a third world nation. God protect America since our elected officials are not.

Because they can get a bigger piece of the taxpayer pie if they're single, not working, with a herd of kids.

wedlock? wedlock? What's that? The only thing they're good at is sleeping, working and screwing.

Obviously it is deliberate, our government is totally ignoring what the people want and selling us out to the highest bidder. I agree, God protect/save America!
