Illegal Alien Indicted on Murder Charges in Death of Woman Burned Alive on NYC Subway
Fox News reported the charges include “one count of murder in the first degree, three counts of murder in the second degree and one count of arson.”
Sebastian Zapeta-Calil, an illegal alien from Guatemala, faces multiple murder and arson charges in the death of a sleeping woman on a NYC subway.
Zapeta-Calil is accused of setting the woman on fire on the train. The video showed him calmly watching her burn alive as others didn’t stop to help her.
Fox News reported the charges include “one count of murder in the first degree, three counts of murder in the second degree and one count of arson.”
No one has been able to identify her due to the state of her remains.
Law enforcement has done a DNA test but hasn’t received the results, according to FOX 5 NY.
The court should unseal the indictment when Zapeta-Calil returns for his arraignment on January 7.

“No one has been able to identify her due to the state of her remains”
If it turns out she was a black woman, his time in prison will be very short. If white, a little longer, but not much.
Note: I am not inferring that he will receive a short sentence, but rather that he won’t live to a ripe old age.
The inference, without your explanation, is that the system is racist and he will get a short sentence based on the skin color of his victim.
Quite the opposite
What a coincidence!
Paula’s idiotic comment notwithstanding, I wonder if she was homeless. She was asleep, after all, when he did this. They should be canvasing homeless encampments and shelters near the area.
Or perhaps she was a nurse who had just done a 12 hour shift overnight and was very fatigued.
I have fallen asleep at a long stoplight after 13 hours of work at night
That downtick was meant to be an uptick. Sorry …
The problem here is that no one is coming forward to claim this might be their wife/girlfriend/co-worker/daughter.
This illegal lowlife deserves to be tortured to death – slowly – but this sort of stuff is insane. There was only 1 murder – which, to a normal, reasonable person would be grounds enough for the death penalty – but to charge this scumbag with 4 counts of murder is just crazy … and completely un-Constitutional – I don’t care what BS the lawyers offer up in defense of it. You cannot charge someone with more than 1 murder for 1 murder.
Without seeing the indictment I can only speculate it is an either or on the charges. Meaning if guilty of first degree murder other charges are discarded by the jury. If not guilty on first degree murder then maybe guilty on one of the second degree murder charges. Often times someone is charged with both murder and manslaughter and the jury decides which charge, if any, defendant is guilty of.
I would take that bet. Derek Chauvin was found guilty of 3 separate counts of murder/manslaughter:
“Derek Chauvin, 45, was convicted of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. ”
These sorts of charges started out as “one or the other” but at some point the courts let this all slip and started running amok with multiple charges for the same offense – which is double jeopardy (and beyond) in any reasonable person’s book. Of course, in addition to this, we have the offensive idiocy of the feds bringing ridiculous “civil rights” charges against people who happen to be acquitted at the state level of charges – for the same, exact crime and, obviously, for the expressed purpose of putting the defendant into double jeopardy for a crime already adjudicated (though not to the satisfaction of the feds).
While true about the jury verdict the lesser chargers were not adjudicated by the judge because they were “lesser included offenses”. He was sentenced based solely on the worst charge and the other two charges were ignored.
If they wanted to add charges onto the indictment you would think that putting easy ones like … “torture” and stuff like that would be in there. I cannot understand how someone can be accused of lighting someone on fire without being charged with some sort of criminal torture. I mean, they put “arson” in there, but the arson act was to a person.
I don’t know. I don’t think it gets worse than first or second degree murder as far as potential time in prison is concerned. The torture aspect may be an aggravating circumstance when it comes time to sentence someone. Aggravating circumstances often enhance a sentence.
Tortured, allowed some time to stew with the memories of that torture, then tortured to death.
Oh, thank goodness this Cultural Enricher may continue to live rent-free indefinitely as a welcomed guest of the United States! Whew!
