Bond set for illegal immigrant deported 4 times who allegedly killed mom, son in drunken driving crash

An illegal immigrant in Colorado who has been deported multiple times and is now facing charges after allegedly killing a mother and her son in a car crash that police say involved alcohol has had his bond set at $250,000 cash only. 

Jose Guadalupe Menjivar-Alas appeared in court virtually from the Broomfield County Jail on Thursday as a judge, in setting the amount, cited community safety concerns and doubts about his ability to appear for future court dates. 

"Just even the possibility that Mr. Menijvar would be deported if he posts bond is very concerning," the judge said at one point during the hearing. 

Menjivar-Alas has been convicted of DWI multiple times prior to his arrest last month.
