A Beautiful Woman in the Prime of Life

One of the Examiner.com's Immigration Reformers - Dave Gibson - reports about the late Corrie Ann Damske (pictured), of Milwaukee, who lost her life in a DUI crash this past New Year's Day.

Writes Gibson, "The driver, Leopoldo Salas-Gayton, 41, had a blood alcohol level of .14, nearly twice the legal limit. According to the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department, Salas-Gayton told investigators he did not even know he was driving on the interstate.

Court documents report that Salas-Gayton told deputies that he purchased a 12-pack of beer and drank it as he was driving. He admitted that he may have fallen asleep while driving.

He has also admitted that he has been in the country illegally for the last 13 years."

This article explains that the 34-year-old Corrie was a devoted mom to a little nine-year-old girl, Hayden.
