The drunk driver who veered into oncoming traffic and crashed head-on into a couple on a Nashville, Tennessee, highway earlier this month is an illegal alien from Honduras.
Julio Cesar Herrera Gonzales was drunk when he drove his Maserati into oncoming traffic and crashed into a couple in a Nissan.
37-year-old Raquel Lorena Sarabia Baraja was killed, and her husband, Marco Antonio Baez Angel, is in critical condition, fighting for his life.
Gonzales entered the US in 2008 and was granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS). His TPS status was revoked in 2015, according to the DHS. He was also previously convicted of vandalism.
Gonzales was charged with vehicular homicide, vehicular assault, DUI, and driving without a license.
Per Fox News reporter Bill Melugin:
DHS confirms to Fox News that a suspected DUI driver who veered his Maserati into oncoming traffic and crashed head on into a car in Nashville two weeks ago, killing a woman, is a Honduran illegal alien who had his Temporary Protected Status (TPS) revoked a decade ago.
DHS tells FOX that Julio Cesar Herrera Gonzales, a Honduran national, was granted TPS in 2008, and it was later revoked in 2015. He also has a vandalism conviction.
“Herrera Gonzales drove drunk and killed Raquel Lorena Sarabia Baraja and left her husband Marco Antonio Baez Del Angel fighting for his life. This criminal illegal is charged with vehicular homicide, vehicular assault, DUI, and driving without a license. ICE issued an arrest detainer on August 23, 2025, to ensure this criminal is not released back into American communities. It seems to be almost a daily occurrence where an illegal alien driving kills innocent Americans. All of these deaths are preventable because these illegal aliens should have NEVER been in our country. President Trump and Secretary Noem will continue to stand with the victims of illegal alien crime and their families,” the DHS said in a statement.
