Illegal Alien Arrested for 3rd DUI–This Time With Young Son

An illegal alien from El Salvador has been arrested in Michigan for his third DUI, and this time he had his 1-year-old son and girlfriend in the car with him.

Police were alerted to 35-year-old Juan Carlos Banoschavez’s erratic driving when other motorists spotted him driving the wrong way down a street. The girlfriend claims Banoschaves only had one drink, and that he was driving in order to rush their son to the hospital:

From WJBK:

“He’s a good guy, and it’s not like he drives all the time. This was an emergency,” said Shirley Munez, the suspect’s girlfriend.

She claims their son had a 105 degree fever and they needed to rush him to the hospital.

“He had a drink like around 4:00 p.m. and then my son woke up crying around midnight,” Munez said. “I’m told him we had to take him to the emergency room, and on our way back we got lost and we ended up going to wrong way and we got pulled over.”

It appears Banoschavez had more than one drink. The video shows him failing his sobriety test, and police say he had a blood alcohol level of 0.12.

Banoschavez has been arrested and charged with operating a vehicle under the influence and drunk driving was a passenger under the age of 16.

Banoschavez’s license had already been revoked because of his previous drunk driving arrests.

Even if he posts bond, FOX 2 has learned he will be handed over to U.S. Immigration officials, and there’s a good chance he will be deported.

    Dont forget the “free health care” they received at the hospital. Who pays for that? (we do….)

    The issue shouldnt be that he “might” get deported this time, it should be that he IS deported.

    And take his little nino with him, when his child turns 18, he may apply for re-entry into the US (the child, not the father!)
    Why should we pay to raise his child?

    I‘m not positive but some states allow illegals to have driver’s licenses. New Mexico was giving out driver’s licenses and the police reported 66% of those stopped for violations had no license and no insurance. But I’m sure they were fined for this and the driver quickly paid the fines. :)
    MY question would be why wasn’t he deported the first time he received a DUI? At least that way he’d have to wait for the Dream Act to allow him to come into this country and go to college on my dime.

    In the country illegally, driving with a revoked license, driving the wrong way on a one way…this guy breaks the law at every turn and he is granted bail? He MIGHT be deported?

    If we deport him, he would have to pay a coyote a ton of money to be smuggled across the border again, and he has a family to feed. Maybe we should give him some taxpayer cash to cover his expenses for the return trip. He would also need bus fare from AZ to MI also.

    You know why Mexicans have to eat re-fried beans. It’s because they can never get it right the first time. He won’t be deported until he kills someone, then he will have to spend time in prison at our expense. These people are the scum of the earth and Mexico wants to get rid of them. That’s why they won”t shut their side of the border.

      @HILLBILLYSAM1

      Many States have or still do issue Driver Lic to Illegals, and even the ones that do not officially up until the last couple of years most states on gave a cursory inspection of the ID Documents, meaning often Drivers Lic could easily be Obtained with Forged Documents. Since most states only Require renewal every 6-10 years it is very likely that many illegals have valid drivers lic. Plus 4 or 5 states still give out valid lic to illegals that are, by law, good in all 50 states.

      @Hillbilly, If he’s driving with a suspended license, it is irrelevant whether he has or had a license … he was driving illegally. Just like he is here illegally. Unfortunately, it takes convictions to qualify as a criminal alien. This guy has been arrested 3 times for DUI, but it makes no mention of convictions. Based on current law, Immigration and Customs can’t act based on arrests … the local jurisdictions, arrest and pat them on the butt and let them go … without prosecution.

      Our immigration laws need to be changed. Illegal is illegal. If you do not come here legally, you should should have Human Rights, but no Constitutional Rights. You should only have the right to go home by whatever means is available, with no right to complain about it. You should not have property rights as a result of being here illegally, and anything you’ve acquired while here should be summarily confiscated. Children born here should (are) citizens of your home country, not our home. If you are illegally here, you should Never be allowed to gain legal status. End of rant.
