The person chargeable for the dying of a Foster Farms worker in a 2023 hit-and-run incident was sentenced to a few years in a California state jail.
Melicio Ayala-Hernandez acquired his sentence on June 27 in a Fresno County courtroom.
The courtroom motion stems from an August 23, 2023, incident, in which Ayala-Hernandez, an worker of a brief company who was doing work for Foster Farms, had entered a car owned by Foster Farms, then started to drive it on a Foster Farms ranch in Fresno County. Whereas driving that car, the Ayala-Hernandez struck Foster Farms crew member Jose Romero Aguilera. Ayala did not cease, however as an alternative left the property. He surrendered to California Freeway Patrol (CHP) officers not removed from the place the incident occurred.
Aguilera was taken to a close-by hospital, the place he died from his accidents.
In line with a report from ABC30, Ayala-Hernandez by no means confronted any murder fees, however reasonably pleaded no contest to fees of getting a stolen truck and leaving the scene. The case by no means went to trial.
Ayala-Hernandez has remained in custody since his arrest. Whereas his sentence is to serve 3 years, he might be given credit score for the time he has already spent incarcerated.
