Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes (who, because he is made of magic and unicorn tears, has transformed his name from the “Jesus Manuel Cordova” that appeared in initial reports), the man who saved the young boy whose mother was killed in a car accident is back in his home state of Sonora, Mexico. However, the father of four says he has no regrets about throwing away his chance of staying in the U.S. by stopping to help nine-year-old Christopher Buztheitner:

“I am a father of four children. For that, I stayed,” Manuel Jesus Cordova Soberanes said in Spanish from his home in the Mexican state of Sonora. “I never could have left him. Never.”

“I felt frustrated and sad because I couldn’t do anything for the mother,” Cordova said. “And I didn’t know how to console the boy, so I just sat next to him.”

You know what we hate? Everything. And we’d like to keep it that way but damn it if Jesus Manny / Manny Jesus didn’t just make our hearts weep. Quick, less child-saving selflessness and more alleged porn stars.
