A judge has scheduled a resentencing hearing for Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, the truck driver sentenced to 110 years in prison for a 2019 crash that left four dead and several others injured near Denver.
, the truck driver sentenced to 110 years in prison for a 2019 crash that left four dead and several others injured near Denver.
Judge Bruce Jones, who imposed the initial sentence, scheduled the new hearing for 1:30 p.m. local time on Thursday, January 13. The judge questioned how much discretion he has in the resentencing. The judge said he will not hear from anyone on the defense's side, other than counsel. He is willing to hear from victims impacted by the crash — if they choose to. "I'll hear them out if they want to speak to me," he said. "They don't have to put themselves through that stress again."
Aguilera-Mederos said his brakes malfunctioned while he was driving on Interstate 70. But videos show he may have missed a runaway truck ramp along the highway where prosecutors say he could have pulled off.
