An illegal immigrant with numerous run-ins with the law who was ordered deported six years ago stands accused of killing a young Virginia college student in a horrific car crash, according to a local report.
Honduran national Elvis Jamir Cruz-Ferrera, 18, is charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with the February death of Old Dominion University student Lauryn Ni’Kole Leonard, 19, according to the Virginia Pilot.
“She was definitely one of a kind,” said Leonard’s brother Erick Hargrove, 31. “A loving person. Friendly. Sociable. Beautiful, inside and out.”
