Why Is Illegal Alien Who Killed Virginia Nun Now Free (And Not Deported)?

In February 2012, Prince William County Circuit Court Judge Lon Farris sentenced Carlos Abraham Martinelly-Montano to 20 years in prison for the murder of 66-year-old Sister Denise Mosier, and two counts of maiming resulting from driving while intoxicated, driving on a revoked license, involuntary manslaughter and driving while intoxicated.


However, a recent search revealed that Martinelly-Montano is no longer in the custody of the Virginia Department of Corrections.


Another search showed that apparently, Martinelly-Montano is now back living in Nokesville, Va., in the same county where he killed Mosier.



After searching through the last five years of parole decisions (as far back as I can access), this reporter cannot answer why Martinelly-Montano is out of prison, nor why he was not deported, or was he deported and returned illegally?


I am currently awaiting answers from ICE and the Virginia Parole Board.


On August 1, 2010, Prince William County police arrested Bolivian national Martinelly-Montano, 23, after he slammed head on into a car in which three Benedictine nuns were traveling. While 66-year-old Sister Denise Mosier was killed instantly, her two companions were taken by helicopter to the hospital with serious injuries.


Sister Charlotte Lange had a metal plate inserted into her right leg and Sister Connie Ruth Lupton spent four months in the hospital, with 14 broken bones.


What follows is a list of a of few Montano’s prior offenses:


• April 2009…he was arrested for driving without a license and convicted in June.

• October 2008…he was stopped for driving 55 in a 35 mph zone, and was found to have a .17 blood alcohol level. Montano was sentenced to three years probation and his driver’s license was suspended.

• December 2007…he was arrested for being drunk in public.

• July 2007…he was charged with DUI and convicted later that same year.


Though ICE ordered Martinelly-Montano to be deported in March 2009, he continued to have run-ins with the law, and remained free.


Updates on this case will be given as information comes in.
