Thirteen years after fleeing the country to avoid sentencing in a fatal drunk driving case, Sancho Kibutu has been returned to California to face punishment.The Sancho Kibutu, a fugitive who fled to Kenya 13 years ago to avoid sentencing in a fatal drunk driving case, has been returned to California for sentencing. The Federal Bureau of Investigation announced KibUTu's return to the United States for sentencing after he was convicted of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated in Madera County. Kibuttu's vehicle crossed into oncoming traffic on Golden State Boulevard in 2011, leading to a head-on collision that left a passenger in the other vehicle dead and three others seriously injured. He was ordered to return to court for sentencing on Oct. 28, 2013, but fled to Nairobi, Kenya before the hearing. The FBI credited Kenyan authorities for helping track down Kibutonu and securing his extradition.
