(DAILY MAIL) — The elderly rancher charged with murder for shooting a Mexican migrant who illegally crossed onto his Arizona land begged a judge for his reading glasses and to be allowed to speak with his wife at a recent hearing.
George Alan Kelly, 73, remains in custody in Santa Cruz County, Arizona, on a $1million bond, on a single murder charge. On January 30, he shot and killed Gabriel Cuen-Butimea, 48, after he crossed illegally onto his ranch in Kino Springs, near Nogales.

Friends of Kelly’s say he’s had trouble before with illegal migrants using his land to cross through. The elderly rancher was thrown in jail – where he has remained despite pleas to lower his bond.
