GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. - A woman is facing vehicular homicide charges after police say she hit and killed her toddler granddaughter in Gwinnett County Tues.
Police said Gilma J. Ordonez-Guevara was charged with the death of little Valeria Leiva -- who would have turned 2 next week -- based on multiple interviews with her last night. After comparing her story with the evidence, they were able to determine that she had struck the toddler while backing out of the driveway at the Memory Lane home. She said she did not know that the girl was behind her SUV.
Gilma J. Ordonez-Guevara was granted $70,000 bond at a probable cause hearing Friday afternoon, but she can only be released if she is also granted immigration bond. After her arrest on March 21, Ordonez-Guevara was placed on an immigration hold by the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
