Orange County, California District Attorney Todd Spitzer said there is no “pending contract” in the case of illegal immigrants convicted of manslaughter in the deaths of two teens after a new scrutiny over their early release from a California prison.
“As California Gov. Gavin Newsom and the state legislature refuse to liability for criminals, he is released after a convicted felon who was deported twice served only a portion of his sentence for killing two 19-year-olds,” the Republican said in a news release Wednesday.
“This was not a plea agreement. It was a defendant who was sued in court and sentenced to a judge under California law and failed the largest sentence on the Orange County prosecutor’s objection.

“California’s fun times, education and creative concoctions of other credits have led to criminals being released earlier than ever before, fulfilling Newsom’s plot to empty California prisons and bring dangerous, violent felons back on the streets,” Spitzer added.
Oscar Eduardo Ortega Anguiano was drunk on the 405 highway in Orange County in November 2021 and was speeding at high speed. Both were killed and burned alive. In the spring of 2022, he was convicted of two counts of total vehicle manslaughter while drunk.
The victim’s family was notified on Easter Sunday that Ortega Anguiano would be released early on July 19, more than six years before his 10-year sentence was postponed.

However, after a Fox News report, Democrat Gavin Newsom’s office said it would comply with immigration and customs enforcement detainees and transfer him to federal custody. The Justice Department announced it was filing a federal charge against him, and border area Tom Homan said his agency would do everything possible to detain him.
“After being deported in 2013, the individual illegally rejoined the United States and committed a heinous crime. The GOP DA then gave him a plea deal instead of pursuing a second-degree murder. [California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation] The governor’s press conference tweeted Wednesday afternoon and will adjust again with ice as there are over 10,000 prisoners to forward him before being released.
In response to Spitzer’s comments, the governor’s office told Fox News in the background that the district attorney would have the right to say on charges being charged in the case. The governor’s office said it was the Orange County District Attorney’s Office that dropped the major physical injury and other charges. Still, it does not play a role in the fact that individuals are due to be released years earlier.
“For safety and security reasons, the CDCR cannot provide information regarding the date or location of a person who was incarcerated prior to release, and incarcerated persons may earn credits to participate in rehabilitation programming.

On Thursday morning, Bill Essayli, a US lawyer for the Central District of California, told the “American Newsroom” why DOJ is pursuing federal prosecution.
“This is what happens when we have an open border policy like we did in our previous administrations. But the day is over. Under this administration, our borders are closed,” the essay said.
“I made it a top priority in my office, and I know all over the US to enforce our immigration laws. So, he’s not going to be free. He’s not deported. He’s coming to my jurisdiction, and we’re going to prosecute him.”
