California paid $4.5 million to a child-molesting illegal alien
I find it more than a little peculiar that this story, which was posted by Norfolk Crime Examiner, didn’t make headlines around the country last year. Perhaps it was buried because it wouldn’t help folks like Harry Reid, who this week is dishonestly using the Senate’s latest military funding legislation to sneak amnesty for illegal immigrants.
On April 17, 2009, the Orange County Board of Supervisors agreed to pay $3.75 million, plus an additional $900,000 in medical expenses to an illegal alien who was severely beaten by other inmates in the Orange County Central Jail. The Mexican national filed a lawsuit shortly after the incident.
Fernando Ramirez, 24, was in jail after being charged with molesting a 6-year-old girl at a local park. He eventually pled guilty to the lesser charge of battery against a child.
According to his attorney, Ramirez suffered brain damage and now needs help walking. Attorney Mark Eisenberg also claims that his client has been left with an intellect of a 4-year-old child.
Despite the dire financial crisis facing Orange County, Ramirez received the largest settlement ever awarded by the county for an in-custody incident. The Board of Supervisors made their decision in a closed-door session and have refused any comment on the matter. [emphasis added]
This is the kind of thing that happens when the Obama administration decides to go soft on deportation of illegals.
