Father of illegal immigrant DUI victim sounds alarm on lax driver's license laws

Joe Abraham, whose daughter was killed by an illegal immigrant drunken driver, told Fox News Digital that lax driver's license standards for illegal immigrants — commercial or standard — are putting Americans at risk.

An illegal alien living in Georgia is facing a litany of charges after allegedly causing a car crash while under the influence that killed a father with young children.

"On May 1, Deiby Jhonatan Janamejoy Jansasoy, a criminal illegal alien from Colombia, was arrested for vehicular homicide, DUI, and driving without a valid license after killing a Georgia father," the Department of Homeland Security said in a post on X.

"Janamejoy Jansasoy illegally entered our nation in 2023, and was RELEASED into the country under the Biden Administration — completely unvetted."

"ICE has placed a detainer requesting local authorities not release this criminal illegal alien without notifying ICE," the post said.

The county is located just northeast of Savannah, Georgia.

Sharpe, who was trapped inside his vehicle and had to be extracted by a fire crew, was taken to a hospital, where he died.

Janamejoy Jansasoy attempted to leave the hospital before he was discharged, "presumably due to being wanted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for deportation," according to the sheriff's office.
