Illegal Immigrant Jailed for Shooting at Raleigh Officer

Posted: Mar. 4 4:39 p.m.

Raleigh, N.C. — Hector Hernandez was sentenced Tuesday to 33 months in federal prison for the shooting at an off-duty Raleigh police officer in 2007.

Hernandez, an illegal immigrant who had previously been deported, was arrested July 19, 2007, after a shooting at El Deso nightclub at 7429 Capital Blvd. in Raleigh. The officer, who was working security for the club, observed shots being fired from a white van. When he pursued and pulled the van over, Hernandez fired towards the officer.

A handgun was recovered from the van, and Hernandez was arrested.

People get more time for illegal dog fighting! It's no wonder illegals have NO respect for us, our gov't has given them permision to do whatever the hell they want to do -including killing innocent Americans. Street cops should be the most vocal about illegals, after all they're the ones doing their job, just to see repeat criminals get a slap on the hand.
Basically this officer risked his life so a thug who tried to kill him would get 33 months. Had the officer been killed, of course the illegal would've run for the border. Then if Mexico decided to extradite him, he would face no more than 20 years in prison, whereas you or I would get the death penalty. Do the math, is it worth the risk for an officer to even bother?
