Lima-Marin: State Authorities and John Hickenlooper

lima-marin: John Hickenlooper, a Democrat, was the latest twist in the saga of Rene Lima-Marin, 38, according to The Chronicle Herald. He came to the U.S. as a toddler as part of the 1980 Mariel boat lift from Cuba and had legal residency until it was revoked following his 2000 criminal conviction. The pardon from Gov. Lima-Marin was sentenced to 98 years in prison for the robbery. Lima-Marin married, had a child and got a steady job installing glass before state authorities realized their mistake in 2014 and sent him back for the remainder of his 98-year prison sentence. But he was mistakenly paroled from Colorado state prison in 2008. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
