Daughter, Sister, Friend Killed by Jose Jesus Garcia Salmoran, 31

Jose Jesus Garcia Salmoran, 31, an illegal alien from Mexico, was sentenced to 1 year of jail for the death of 20-year-old Jasmine Yvonne Owens of Upper Marlboro, MD. According to County Circuit Judge Wiliam C. Mulford II, that was the maximum sentence he could order by law.

Salmoran had been arrested for causing the July 23rd death of Owens, who was struck and killed by Salmoran after she exited her own car after she struck a guardrail minutes earlier. Salmoran was arrested for drunk driving after blowing a 0.13 blood-alcohol level. His passenger said they had been drinking at a night club and were on the way home.

This wasn't Salmoran's first run-in with police. It was reported that Salmoran many prior traffic convictions including one for alcohol, but was never deported. Apparently Salmoran even got a speeding ticket months after killing Owens and had been in the U.S. illegally for about 13 years.

Owens was buried July 29, 2011.

OJJPAC note: Another instance where aliens have been caught and convicted of multiple crimes but are not turned over to or accepted by ICE for deportation until they kill someone. In this case, it isn't even indicated if ICE has yet to be notified after conviction and sentencing.
