The charges stem from the deaths of one-year-old Green River resident, Stella Doak, and 62-year-old resident, Debra DeVries.

Maestas’s vehicle drove into their Green River home on March 10, 2017.

Maestas will be sentenced on October 12th at 9 am.

He could face up to 50 years in prison. Maestas entered a cold plea, a term for when no sentencing agreement has been reached between the prosecutor and defense.
