In Virginia Beach, VA, an illegal immigrant was driving drunk and killed two teenage girls sitting in their car. He only has an International driver's liscense and was able to buy a car, register it, and obtain insurance. Also, he has had 3 DUIs previously and was still allowed to drive. How could this have happened? If he has 3 DUIs then he was detained by the police dept. Why then let him go if he is in this country illegally. How was he able to buy a car and insurance if his driver's liscense is invaild? Who is at fault here? Now two teenagers are dead and we are left with hard questions to anwser.

Any loss of life due to drunk driving is senseless. It should never have to happen.
Local police are not authorized to enforce Federal immigration laws and would have no jurisdiction to hold him if he is in the country illegally.
Fortunately, this individual was responsible enough to maintain insurance on his vehicle and the family of the teens have recourse with them for their loss.
