Zoey Zane’s Killer Gets Life Without Parole

by Sue Denim
YNOT – The Mexican citizen convicted in the November 2007 murder of internet porn model Zoey Zane was sentenced March 31 to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Israel Mireles, 26, in February failed to convince an El Dorado, Kans., jury Zane — who in real life was Kansas college student Emily Sander, 18 — died during a drug deal gone bad. After only four days of testimony, jury members deliberated little more than an hour before convicting Mireles of rape, sodomy and capital murder.

As a condition of the extradition agreement that returned Mireles from Mexico to the U.S. to stand trial, he was ineligible for the death penalty.

According to testimony, Mireles fled to Mexico after murdering Sander. During his trial, Mireles claimed a mystery man with whom he argued about drugs killed Sander after Mireles walked out on the deal. When he returned to the motel room where he had left Sander alone with the other man, after allegedly taking a drive “to cool down,” he discovered Sander’s mutilated body and the murder weapon.

Mireles told the court he panicked and dumped Sander’s body alongside a road about 50 miles from the murder scene, then tossed the bloody knife and Sander’s clothes in a trash bin at his pregnant girlfriend’s grandmother’s house. He and his girlfriend immediately departed for Mexico.

Sander’s nude, stabbed, strangled and beaten body was found six days later. Mireles was arrested in Mexico the following month.

At his March 31 sentencing, Mireles told the court, “I have nothing to say.”

Sander’s family did, however.

“What you did was more like a savage animal, rather than a human being,” Clem Sander, Emily’s grandfather, told the packed courtroom.

Brent Blaine, Emily Sander’s uncle, addressed Mireles directly, saying, “Her will was not broken that night, but you are still a pathetic little man.”

He won't make it 40 years most guys don't. I'd put his odds of being killed in prison before he's 50 at about 90%.

thats the idea, remember Jeffrey Dahmer?

The little spot of sunshine is that he will be labeled as a rapist and have a hard go in prison. We should start a deadpool for how long this waste of skin will last in there.

Wow. I was just thinking about this the other day as I was getting into the business right when that happened...was wondering what ever came of it all. I'm glad they put him away, but they should have given him the death sentence just for the principal of it all.

You can't. He was extradited from Mexico and is a Mexican citizen. The terms of an extradition are always that the death penalty isn't on the table.

Seeing her dead photos fucked me up, I hope he burns in hell

He received his punishment.

Yep and if Dahmer has gotten the death penalty he'd most likely still be alive. And If not his death would have been much less painful. Ironic isn't it? All the pro-death penalty people really should take that into consideration.
