Horrific Crimes Highlight Sanctuary Insanity
By David Jaroslav July 26, 2018 9 Comments
Two arrests in less than a week for egregious violent yet preventable crimes point out the utter madness of states and local governments continuing to adopt, follow, and even expand sanctuary policies to protect illegal and criminal aliens from federal immigration authorities. Though both were in California, the problem is not unique to the Golden State. Across the country, sanctuary policies continue to protect criminal aliens at the expense of law-abiding members of the public.
In Whittier on July 11, Alejandro Alvarez Villegas allegedly tried to murder his wife with a chainsaw in front of their three young children. Miraculously, she is expected to survive. When Villegas was found at a traffic stop the next day, he also allegedly tried to ram a police car. According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), he has been deported 11 times. ICE spokeswoman Lori Haley called him a “serial immigration violator.†He has a criminal record, too, in addition to his repeated immigration violations, he has at least one drug conviction in 2013 and a DUI in 2014. ICE has lodged a detainer request asking that he be held for pickup if he’s ever released on his pending state criminal charges. However, since California is a sanctuary state, the request will likely not be honored.
