Mennonite worker gets probation United Press International 105 boyett College t TiMBny.wi iimont wfrt iiii \ in ii BROWNSVILLE — The first Sanctuary Movement member pros ecuted for violating immigration laws Wednesday told the federal judge who sentenced her to proba tion that she does not feel that help ing Salvadorans fleeing Central American death squads made her a felon. Mennonite lay worker Stacey Lynn Merkt, 29, of Colorado Springs, Colo., told U.S.. District Judge Filemon Vela in a packed courtroom that the Reagan Admin istration’s support of a government in El Salvador that has killed 40,000 people and shoots dissidents is con tributing to hundreds of refugees fleeing to the United States. Vela told Merkt he believed she was a “conscientious person” and that her “charity and love” helped mitigate her punishment. He then sentenced her to 90 days in jail, but suspended the sentence and placed her on two years probation after ex acting from her a promise that she intends to violate no more laws. She could have been sent to prison for up to 15 years and Vela warned her he might deal more harshly with future Sanctuary Movement people who run afoul of immigration laws because "people know now the law will be applied.” Vela said Congress is the correct forum for opposing the government refusal to grant refugee status or ex tended departure to Salvadorans be cause, “judges cannot change the law.” Merkt was convicted last month of conspiracy and aiding and abetting the transportation of two illegal aliens after an all-Hispanic jury de liberated 17 hours over three if the longest jury deliberation inli memory of longtime Brownsvi federal court officials., More than 150 Sanctuac Movement supporters throughout Texas jammed ill courtroom for the sentencing a# spilled out into the hall.
