Leo Cisneros was sentenced to 15 years in prison today for selling marijuana out of his family's Denver apartment, nearly two months after a jury found him not guilty of child abuse resulting in the death of his daughter, Auralia.
Three men tried to force themselves into the Cisneros family home the night Auralia was killed and they exchanged gunfire with Leo Cisneros. Auralia was shot in the face in the crossfire.
The intruders — Trivi Trujillo, Joshua Rojas and Juvencio Hernandez — all pleaded guilty in the case and are serving between 16 and 24 years in prison.

I don't believe any of these guys is a good guy or one to defend, but the intruders were the ones actually responsible for the little girls death. Had they not broken into this mans apartment and tried to rob him, she would be alive today. What I find really disgusting is that armed robbers who more than likely were the ones to kill the little girl got about the same amount of prison time as the father who not only lost his daughter, but also was not really hurting anyone in the course of his “crime” of selling drugs to willing buyers.
