Outrage Grows – Little Havana (33135): Miami-Dade Silent on Deportation of Drunk Driver in Triple Fatal Crash – Ongoing Investigation

Little Havana (ZIP 33135) – A wave of public anger is rising in Miami-Dade after authorities quietly deported a man accused of driving drunk in a crash that killed three people. The suspect, Eduardo Ramirez, was reportedly deported to Honduras just weeks after the tragic April collision. His removal has raised serious questions about oversight, justice, and communication from local corrections and federal immigration agencies.

The fatal crash claimed the lives of two adults and a child from the same family in Little Havana. Loved ones were blindsided by news of the suspect’s deportation and claim they were never informed of his removal from U.S. custody.

Key Facts

• BREAKING: DUI suspect deported after crash that killed 3 in Miami

• IMPACT: Victims include 2 adults and 1 child from Little Havana

• OFFICIAL SOURCE: “We cannot comment on removal proceedings.” – ICE Spokesperson

• ACTION: Families demand investigation into deportation process

Eduardo Ramirez, a Honduran national, was accused of DUI manslaughter after slamming into the victims’ car near SW 8th Street. Despite the severity of the charges, records now show he was removed from the U.S. by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in late June.

Both Miami-Dade Corrections and ICE have refused to provide detailed explanations. ICE simply stated, “We cannot comment on removal proceedings.” Miami-Dade Corrections has not responded to multiple inquiries as of Tuesday.

Impact of Local Area

1. Precise Location:
   Little Havana (ZIP 33135) – Crash occurred near SW 8th Street & 22nd Avenue

2. Community Connection:
   “This should’ve never happened without notice to the families.”
   – Carlos Peña, owner, Peña’s Auto Shop

“This is a slap in the face to the victims’ families,” said Carlos Peña, a neighborhood business owner. “How can someone kill three people and just vanish without a trial?”

Attorneys representing the families have filed a formal request for a state-level investigation, demanding to know if the deportation violated due process or state laws on notification and custody transfer.

Why It Matters

This case marks the second time in 60 days that a fatal DUI suspect was deported in South Florida before facing trial. Critics argue this undermines the justice system and could set a troubling precedent.
