Illegal Alien Arrested in Fatal Jet Ski Hit-and-Run of US Air Force Academy Cadet
The victim, 18-year-old kayaker Ava Moore, had just completed the USAF Preparatory School.
The disaster of Biden’s border polices enacted by his Auto-Pen Poliburo continues, this time claiming the life of an aspiring US Air Force Academy Cadet.
Texas Game Wardens and Grapevine Police announced on Tuesday the arrest of Daikerlyn Alejandra Gonzalez Gonzalez in connection with the death of 18-year-old kayaker Ava Moore, who was killed in a jet ski collision on Grapevine Lake this weekend.
Ava Moore, who had just completed the Air Force Academy Preparatory school and was poised to enter the Academy, was kayaking when she was struck by a jet ski operated by Gonzalez Gonzalez (an illegal alien from Venezuela), with another woman as a passenger.
Daikerlyn Alejandra Gonzalez Gonzalez was identified in the post as the suspect in the death of Ava Moore, 18. Police did not say what charges she may be facing, but said more information will be available later. Her arrest comes after police released a photo of her taken by a member of the public following the accident.
The woman is an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela, according to a news release from Attorney General Ken Paxton issued after her arrest.
…The jet ski’s passenger stayed on scene and talked with first responders, but the driver fled with an unidentified man. While fleeing the scene, the jet ski driver and the man struck a car in the parking lot, authorities said.
The man is also an undocumented immigrant, according to Paxton’s news release. It said he was arrested, but it did not identify him or say which country he is from.
NEW: The suspect accused of a fatal hit and run jet ski crash that killed an American teenager in Texas on Sunday is a Venezuelan illegal alien. Police say she and another illegal alien fled the scene after the incident. The 18 y/o victim was going to the U.S. Air Force academy. https://t.co/Q9pgR7rpNe

Witnesses reported that the jet ski was being driven recklessly throughout the day by Gonzalez.
Lisa Scrabeck, who was at the lake, said she helped render aid to Moore after she was pulled ashore. She checked for a pulse and heartbeat and confirmed that Moore was wearing a life jacket, which was removed before CPR began.
“She didn’t suffer in agony,” Scrabeck told CBS News Texas. “It’s very tragic, and I extend my deepest condolences to the family. I can’t imagine being the parents of this young girl. But one thing I can say is that she didn’t suffer from the moment I saw her.”
Scrabeck also noted that she had seen the women on the jet ski “driving recklessly” throughout the day.
I have no words to adequately express the impact of this tragedy.
According to Fox4, Moore was just weeks away from her lifelong dream of joining the military. She was scheduled to leave for Air Force basic training and was home in Texas visiting family during Memorial Day weekend.
Moore was reportedly a student and star basketball player at the U.S. Air Force Academy Preparatory School in Colorado.
Her coach, Ke’sha Blanton, spoke to the media outlet.
“You know, we talked throughout the course of the year that at some point in her career she was going to be a four-star general because she loved it,” said Blanton. “She made those around her better.”
Blanton said she is feeling sadness and anger over Moore’s death.
“They took a bright, bright star from our lives,” she said.

Rest in peace, Ava.
The very government that you wished to serve failed at its core mission to keep all of us safe from enemies foreign and domestic.
Those enemies include the illegal criminal that killed you and former “president” Joe Biden, whose policies allowed him to be here.
it’s time for Blondie to woman up and start applying the applicable laws!
8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(B)(iv) Federal death penalty for any that brings into the US and harbors an illegal alien and by doing so, results in the death of any person
I suspect its not that simple! But what do I know?
But to your greater point, those who have enabled this invasion MUST be made to pay the consequences for those actions!
A plain reading of the law at 8 U.S. Code § 1324 – Bringing in and harboring certain aliens seems pretty simple to me. Now if we only had a U.S. Attorney brave enough to start prosecuting people under that law it would be great. But I don’t see Bondi ever doing that.
So who is the person who brought Gonzalez into the country?
Do we even know?
If we do. that may be the person to be held accountable under this statute.
It doesn’t address Gonzalez at all.
Mayorkas, the Border Czar?
So you think Mayorkas physically brought this person into the country?
Citation please.
You think that Mayorkas physically harbored this person in the country?
Citation please.
Ork! Ork! Ork!
An illegal alien never saved anybody’s life? The trouble with anecdotal evidence is that it’s always cherry-picked. You always know you’re being scammed and wonder if your side ought to know better. They’re letting in morons.
And any such incident would be showcased 24/7 by the leftist media: “See? Illegals good!”
*crickets*
So much for that theory.
Exactly. Instead they fly to El Salvador to pimp for a gang banger.
The media would love a heroic illegal, but that is an oxymoron. Anyone willing to enter the United States illegally is already predisposed to being a good-for-nothing.
Like a good illegal gang member with a gun stopping a mass shooting? Please post those incidents.
“While fleeing the scene, the [murderer] jet ski driver and the man struck a car in the parking lot, authorities said.”
VZ sounds like an exciting place to live. Ever consider moving there?
Don’t respond to tards. Nor trolltards. Nor comtards
Just to note, the young woman was not yet an Air Force Academy cadet. She was a Prep School graduate with an appointment to the Academy. She would become a “basic cadet” after arriving for Cadet Basic Training. She would have become a full cadet after graduating basic.
Lake Grapevine used to be a nice quiet place to party and do lake things. But Grapevine has become huge in the last 30 years. But, even then it probably never had things like this happen. Ugh.
RIP Ava Moore.
Fast track for deportation. Immediately!
Only to be back in months if not weeks. I am thinking something more permanent.
We can do both.
Expedited appeals for the death penalty, then deport the body bag and its contents.
after at least 15 years in the pen.
There’s another angle to this being missed. This jack ass was driving recklessly all day long… yet no LEO presence.
If local PD don’t step up and confront these people, this is what’s going to happen. It’s EXACTLY what is happening in every blue state hell hole. Except in blue states, even if the cops arrest, the local DA and courts just set them free 2 hours later. However with the illegals, Trump gives local LEOs a fighting chance, but they have to step up to the plate.
“With a diversity score of 95 out of 100, Grapevine is much more diverse than other US cities…”
Feel stronger yet?
So thoroughly unfair at the loss of life.
until leftists go to jail for ACTUAL crimes committed THIS WONT STOP
Here is the “secret” behind the no bail no jail lefty policies
The pols, judges etc who allow the criminals to reign supreme KNOW THAT THESE SAME CRIMINALS WILL RELATE TO THE CRIMINAL POLITICIAN
and therefor have even more incentive to physically fight for those same politicians who also break the law
The dnc IS THE REAL CARTEL
Leslie Eastman?
Why does your story focus on Paxton’s press release, yet misrepresent it?
The press release uses Illegal alien 6 times, and never hints at
undocumented immigrant”
Does Legal Insurrection follow the AP style guide?
https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/attorney-general-ken-paxton-announces-arrest-two-illegal-aliens-connection-death-woman-lake
“Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced the arrest of an illegal alien suspected of killing a woman…”
“The suspect then fled the scene with a male illegal alien,…”
You are missing context. The parts of Leslie’s post where the words “undocumented immigrant” are used are a direct quote from The Dallas Morning News. Leslie first links to the article, then directly quotes it. Your beef should be with that publication.
Direct quotes deserve quotation marks. there are none in the article, and no mention of the DMN, though there is a link. quotes with no attribution?
She does repeat the false statements from the DMN and it appears that she accepts and makes them:
“The woman is an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela, according to a news release from Attorney General Ken Paxton issued after her arrest.
…
The man is also an undocumented immigrant, according to Paxton’s news release.
Paxton never said that. Why allow an easily checked falsehood to replicate
It isn’t enough that illegals are complete menaces killing citizens in hit-and-runs on our highways all over the place (illegals are terrible drivers and many view drunk driving as a sport), now they are killing Americans in hit-and-runs on the water, too.
People see lots of news articles about illegals committing heinous violent crimes … but the damage that illegals do on the roads dwarfs all that – and now on the water, too.
Mass deportations need to be picked up and truly become “mass”. All illegals need to be out. Find an illegal, deport immediately.
Noting that the Air Force Academy Class of 2025 graduated a couple of hours ago just up the road [by the way the Thunderbirds could not do their flyover because of thunderstorms coming in]; I think that we can be fairly well assured that both of the hostile foreign invaders will be released by orders of a Federal judge and disappear.
Subotai Bahadur
By my definition all foreign invaders are hostile.
Grateful that my family was able to see the flyover last year. It is a special memory.
