A 19 year-old Guatemalan migrant farm worker is no longer facing life in a Florida prison after prosecutors dropped a bullshit “aggravated homicide of a police officer” charge brought last year when a St John’s County Sheriff’s deputy dropped dead of a heart attack immediately after a struggle to arrest the kid who had no idea what was going on at the time, ABC News reports.

Sgt Michael Kunovich was shorehorned into a list compiled by Breitbart of “14 Americans, Legal Immigrants Among Those Allegedly Killed by Illegal Aliens in 2023” late last year, even as per ABC News, an autopsy report said Kunovich’s death after beating the shit out of the migrant, Virgilio Aguilar Mendez, “may have been a result of the severe heart disease, a prior heart attack or heart and lung deterioration due to smoking.” It’s not entirely clear however if that was the real reason the charges were dropped, as the court also determined that “based on concerns about the intellectual capacity of Virgilio Aguilar Mendez and the recent ruling finding him to be incompetent,” as he was incapable of understanding the American justice system and doesn’t understand English.

He also doesn’t really understand Spanish either, as he speaks an obscure indigenous Central American language called Mam. Though Aguilar Mendez has been exonerated, he’s still in ICE custody pending deportation proceedings. Breitbart’s earlier reporting on the story says the kid crossed the border in 2022 and was released into the US, which indicates that he’s an asylum claimant and not simply an illegal alien who crawled under the fencing or walked through the desert.
