A teenager accused of stabbing a 14-year-old boy to death in a gang-motivated attack had been given sanctuary from deportation under San Francisco's previous practice of shielding young illegal immigrant felons from federal authorities, records show.
Rony Aguilera, 17, known as "Guerrillero," has been charged as an adult in the July 31 sword attack in the Excelsior neighborhood that killed Ivan Miranda, who police say was an innocent victim caught up in an act of gang vengeance. Authorities believe Aguilera is an illegal immigrant from Honduras, but he was never referred to federal officials after being arrested last year in an assault case, according to records reviewed by The Chronicle.
Aguilera is the second person this year to be charged with murder in San Francisco after having been protected from possible deportation under city officials' now-discarded interpretation of a sanctuary ordinance that barred agencies from cooperating with federal efforts to round up illegal immigrants.
In June, Edwin Ramos, now 22, an alleged illegal immigrant from El Salvador who compiled a record of gang-related crimes as a juvenile, was accused of fatally shooting Anthony Bologna, 48, and his sons Michael, 20, and Matthew, 16, in their car in the Excelsior.
Police believe that, like Ramos, Aguilera is a member of the MS-13 (Mara Salvatrucha) gang. 40247. jexster - 11/18/2008 4:42:57 AM Chris Hayes

Senator John Cornyn wants investigation into immigrant inmates...
Lawmaker's call for action follows Chronicle's series on the release of violent criminals who admitted to jailers they were in the U.S. illegally.
.................................................
The Chronicle investigation found federal immigration officials allowed scores of violent criminals, including some ordered deported decades ago, to walk away from jail despite the inmates' admission to jailers that they were in the country illegally.

TheWizardOfWhimsy - 11/18/2008 5:03:16 PM Last night's The Charlie Rose Show offered up some new insight as to why Obama may want Hillary at State. Evidentally, she has a very strong and friendly working relationship with Joe Biden that the other candidates don't have. It seems that he has made it clear that he wants to be directly involved in foreign policy decisions.
Moreover, it's a politically shrewd move to get Clinton out of the senate, where she may come to a point at which she no longer wants to carry Obama's water in that body and thus strike off on her own--the way Teddy Kennedy challenged Carter, after one term, for the party's nomination. 40251.
