Kardashian lends help to truck driver convicted in Colorado crash...

Aguilera-Mederos’ sentence was meted out Dec. 13 after he was convicted on 27 counts —  including vehicular homicide — for causing a 2019 crash near Denver that killed four people and wounded six others.

Aguilera-Mederos maintains there was little he could do after losing his brakes coming down Interstate 70 out of the Rocky Mountains.

Before issuing the 110-year sentence, Judge A. Bruce Jones said he didn’t want to see Aguilera-Mederos spend the rest of his life in prison, but he did not have the discretion to give a lesser sentence under Colorado law.

Truck drivers boycott Colorado after driver sentenced to 110 years in prison...

  • Now, truckers are protesting by boycotting Colorado.

One Tiktoker said, “this truck is no longer going to Colorado. We want justice for Rogel Aguilera. Truckers he needs our help.”
