After four years of hearings and testimonies, the family, friends and coworkers of two people killed in a 2020 drunken driving crash filled the Adams County courtroom Thursday morning, anxiously awaiting a sentence. Because of time limits and a separate, ongoing jury trial, only three people stepped up to testify, pleading for the judge to impose the maximum sentence. A jury found 50-year-old Fructuoso Rosales-Cano guilty in November on two counts of vehicular homicide and two counts of driving under the influence with two or more prior convictions in the crash that killed Commerce City police detective Curt Holland and 31-year-old Francesca Dominguez. On Thursday, Adams County District Court Judge Sean Finn sentenced Rosales-Cano to 10 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections for each death, to be served consecutively.
