Neither of those things have been proven by the court. “We're kindof back at squareone,” Benjamin said, addinghis client can request a trial. Cruz-Silvia, also known as Mario Padilla-Rodriguez, entered the plea bargain on “good faith” that court would follow the state's recommendation, Benjamin said. A plea bargain only entitles the defendantto a recommendation from the prosecuting attorneys on how muchtime should be served, Davis said. “I've departed from that,” he said. The withdrawal of Cruz- Silvia’s guilty pleas may negatively impactthe state’s case against Ramos-Trujillo, said county prosecutor Randy Ken- nard. However,he said he was satisfied with the judge's harsh ruling. “The state's main concern wasto have Mr. Cruz enter a plea,” Kennardsaid, which would allowthestate to call him as witness in Ramos-Trujillo’s trial. Cruz-Silvia's testimony would help the state argue that Ra- mos-Trujillo shot his victim not out of fear but out of anger. In addition to sentencing, Kennard asked the court to have Cruz-Silvia to serve his sentence and then be deported, andnot be allowedto re-enter the United Stateslegally. wBaS=£= THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL: DENTAL TECHNOLOGY Health Career Training From Utah's Premier Health Career College Journal 800-377-9720 initiative will also include col- sister, Virginia, who had re- Studying whirling disease is one of about a half-dozenis‘sues the Legislature's Natural Resources, Agriculture and EnvironmentInterim Commit- waterfisheries through the movementof mud.
