Man Sentenced to 9 Years Following the Death of a Newborn

Ramon Hernandez, who was suspected of DUI, has been sentenced to a maximum of 9 years in prison after a Colorodo couple’s newborn died in the accident in Northern New Mexico on June 2012.

The couple, Aileen and Zach Smith of Colorado Springs, was driving to California for a baby shower when another car driven by Hernandez veered in front of their SUV. The baby died immediately.

Hernandez could have faced a longer sentence but he was acquitted of DWI and police didn’t test him for alcohol after the accident.
