Fox News has learned a man charged in the death of a 14-year-old Southern California high school student killed in a DUI hit-and-run crash this month is an illegal immigrant from Mexico who had two prior DUI arrests in California.
But he remained in the country due to the Biden administration’s immigration policies.
Jose Abelardo Villegas-Orbe, 47, an illegal Mexican national, is charged with vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and DUI hit-and-run causing death.
La Quinta High School freshman Liam Cantu, 14, was hit by a car Oct. 10 while riding his bike with another teen.

Multiple federal law enforcement sources told Fox that Villegas-Orbe was arrested for driving under the influence in August 2024 and November 2024 in Riverside County, California.
However, since the DUI arrests were misdemeanors, sources said they did not meet the Biden administration’s immigration enforcement priorities.
