A twice-deported criminal jailed for a decade for killing two teenagers in a drunken car crash will be released almost seven years early.
Oscar Eduardo Ortega-Anguiano was drunk, high, and speeding at 100mph when he hit another car on I-405 in Seal Beach, California, on November 19, 2021.
Teen sweethearts Anya Varfolomeeva Nicholay Osokin, both 19, were killed when their car burst into flames afterOrtega-Anguiano plowed into them.
Ortega-Anguiano, 43, was sentenced to two 10-year jail terms, to be served concurrently, forgross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.
But their parents were horrified to discover in February that he will be released on parole on July 19 after only serving about three-and-a-half years.
'My daughter and her friend, both 19, were slaughtered in November of 2021 and the bastard illegal alien is already scheduled for release from the California prison in Vacaville in July 2025, this year!'Varfolomeeva's parents wrote on Twitter.
ACalifornia Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation notice of release sent to her father AnatolyVarfolomeev confirmed the release date.
The notice added thatOrtega-Anguiano was subject to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainer, which has been in place since days after the crash.

But the teens' families worry that even after he is deported, he will sneak back into the US anyway, as he did before.
Ortega-Anguiano was convicted of burglary in 2005 and vehicle theft in 2007, then jailed forbattery on spouse with kidnapping in 2014.
An immigration judge ordered him to be removed from the US after the 2014 conviction, and he was deported onDecember 2, 2016, after exhausting his appeals.
He tried to re-enter the US on February 2, 2018, near Otay Mesa, California, using fake documents, but was detained and deported again.
At some point since then, he managed to sneak in undetected until his arrest immediately after the crash that killedVarfolomeeva andOsokin.
Unlike the millions of migrants who followed protocol and surrendered to border agents to claim asylum,Ortega-Anguiano was in the US illegally and would have been denied entry after a previous deportation.

ICE first lodged its detainer after his arrest, and renewed it withNorth Kern State Prison in Delano on June 9, 2022, after he was moved there to serve his sentence.
WhyOrtega-Anguiano is being released so early despite his lengthy criminal history is unclear, as the CDCR doesn't even confirm release dates 'for safety and security reasons'.
'Incarcerated persons may earn credits for participating in rehabilitative programming, which may move their parole dates to an earlier date,' it said.
Varfolomeeva and Osokin's parents are confused as to why the DUI killer is being released barely a third of the way through his sentence.
'It's disgusting. You have two young, unbelievable future, productive American citizens killed for nothing and that illegal immigrant who already has been deported twice is going to be released again? For what?'Varfolomeev told Fox News.
'If even he is deported, he will come back.'

Pavel Osokin said he hoped the parole would be reversed soOrtega-Anguiano would 'get old in prison' and be deported at the end of his full sentence.
'Three years for killing two kids! It's confusing to me. Why you give them 10 if they're gonna spend five, and then three?' he said.
'Give them three in the beginning, at least we know what to expect. It's sort of spitting in my face.'
BothVarfolomeeva and Osokin's parents suedOrtega-Anguiano along with Honda and theCalifornia Department of Transportation.
The two lawsuits are ongoing and were either settled out of court ot don't appear to have progressed since last year, according to court records.
