A teenage illegal alien who killed a 24-year-old Colorado woman during a high-speed crash was given a generous plea deal by a progressive district attorney that allowed him to escape jail time.
The teen, a 15-year-old Colombian national, has not been named due to state laws that shield the identity of underage criminal suspects. Despite the severity of the crime, the teen was sentenced to just two years’ probation and 100 hours of community service for the July 2024 death of Kaitlyn Weaver, according to a report from Fox News.
The office of Arapahoe County District Attorney Amy Padden offered the teen a plea deal if he admitted his guilt in the deadly crash, the victim’s father, John Weaver, told the outlet.
At the time of the crash, the offender was racing with other teens at a speed of 90 miles-per-hour in the T-boned Weaver’s vehicle at an intersection, her father said. “It was an instantaneous death,” he added.
Kaitlyn was waiting at an intersection and was on the phone with her boyfriend when she was struck, her father said. She was kept on life support for two days before she was taken off and succumbed to her injuries.
