After Juan Pablo Santillan was killed in a hit and run crash Sunday night, his family is asking for help to send his body home to Mexico to his mother.
“Just seeing him would help all in all to heal the process.”
The Kremmling Police Department says they were called out to the Hotel Eastin early Sunday morning. They found Santillan crushed with a dent in the hotel’s wall next to his body. The arrest report said Juan Carlo Flores was eventually found off scene and admitted to accidently driving the car into Santillan after a night of drinking.Ortiz said it hurts to know his nephew’s alleged killer tried to escape justice.
“In all our eyes it is not right that it was done like that, you could argue because ‘I was scared of what would happened,'” Ortiz said. “Technically you dug yourself a bigger hole by doing that.” While Santillan was born in Frisco, he grew up in Mexico before returning as an adult to Summit County. His uncle said he had just moved back this December and was trying to get settled in before he started sending money back to his single mother at home with his little brother and sister.Ortiz started an online fundraiser entitled “En memoria a Juan Pablo Santillan Casillas.
