Lake Worth Beach man sentenced for DUI death

Lake Worth Beach man sentenced to four years in prison

A year and a day after the crash that killed Paul Donner, a judge sentenced a Lake Worth Beach man to four years in prison in the 71-year-old's death along South Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach.

Jesus Santizo Sarmiento pleaded guilty to charges of DUI manslaughter and leaving the scene of a crash involving death. During a March 27 hearing at the Palm Beach County Courthouse, Circuit Judge Cymonie Rowe also ordered that he serve three years of probation once he completes his prison sentence.

West Palm Beach police charged Santizo Sarmiento with driving under the influence of alcohol when his 2007 Chevrolet Impala struck and killed Donner before dawn on March 26, 2022, on South Dixie Highway just south of Barnett Street.

I wonder if they check his immigration status. Four years for killing someone...unreal!

Do you assume that everyone who has a foreign-sounding name in South Florida is an immigrant? Do you do that with Italians and Germans and the French, too...or is it just Hispanics?

Just curious as to why you always support the criminal.
Immigrants--fine. Illegals--not fine. And we have plenty of illegals in Florida.
