Russ and Colin break down the case of Colorado truck driver Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, who lost his brakes on interstate 70, crashing into traffic and ultimately resulting in the death of 4 people and injury of 6 others. Mr. Aguilera-Mederos, despite having no prior criminal history, and no intent to injure or kill anyone, was sentenced to 110 years in prison, the minimum mandatory for the crimes pursued by District Attorney Alexis King. Tune in and see why this disproportionate result, and whether the sentencing will be revisited. As always, a guest plays Is This Legal, and they have your Dumb Criminal of the Week!
