Huge support for a truck driver who received 110 years prison time in a rear end accident in Colorado in 2019

After public protests, the prosecutor asks the judge to reconsider the truck driver's 110-year sentence in a fatal rear-end collision of 28 vehicles in Colorado in 2019. The reversal follows a wave of public support for Aguilera Mederos, an immigrant Cuban and resident of Texas who was 23 at the time of the accident. A few days after his conviction, more than four million people signed a petition calling for a reduced sentence, the number topping 4.6 million on Wednesday at noon. AguileraMederos' truck crashed into a group of cars in traffic on a stretch of Interstate 70 along the western border of Denver, Colorado in April 2019, triggering a large fire and 28 vehicle collisions through the rear which killed four people aged 24 to 69. He survived the catastrophic crash with minor injuries. Aguilera Mederos said he lost control of the truck after his brakes failed and tried to pull over to the shoulder to avoid the blocked traffic, but another trailer had already stopped there. The incident occurred as he passed one of the runway ramps for trucks.

A petition on Change.org asking to commute Aguilera Mederos' sentence or grant him clemency had garnered more than 4.3 million signatures as of Monday. Rogel has said on several occasions that he would like to have the courage to crash and kill himself. One day this tragic accident did not happen with Intention, it was not a criminal act, it was an accident, "reads the petition, created three years ago and resumed last week. The petition states that Aguilera Mederos has no criminal record, has passed all of his drug and alcohol tests and "Complied with every request" from investigators and the courts.

He adds that he has taken responsibility for his actions and apologized to the families of the victims, at least one of whom said he did not. would not have been sentenced to life imprisonment, according to Colorado Public Radio. The petition also says the trucking company he worked for should be held responsible, as it has suffered several mechanical violations since 2017.
