The man accused of killing an 80-year-old woman in a head-on crash while evading Border Patrol agents was sentenced Monday to 11 years in prison.
A federal judge sentenced William Ken Huebbe, a 31-year-old Tucson resident, after Huebbe pleaded guilty to human smuggling that resulted in a death near Three Points on Jan. 8, 2015, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a news release.
Huebbe was smuggling two undocumented immigrants toward Tucson when he swerved into oncoming traffic to get away from Border Patrol agents and collided with another car.
Gracie Baldwin, 80, was killed in the collision. Her daughter, Kelly Schwalenstocker, 55, who was driving the 2007 Ford Focus, was severely injured. The two were heading home from a medical exam when the crash occurred.
