Another Day, Another Shocking Criminal Migrant Report
A single instance in which so many flawed policies and questionable laws have (allegedly) combined to result in grievous harm

House Judiciary Committee Republicans issued a report this week captioned “The Consequences of the Biden-Harris Administration's Open-Borders Policies: The Cases of Four Illegal Aliens Who Viciously Attacked a Man on a Chicago Train”. Regrettably, such stories are now so common as to be mundane, but the facts of this case are so shocking, they’re notable because they present a single instance in which so many flawed administration policies and a questionable law have –allegedly – combined to result in grievous harm to an individual.
“Four Illegal Aliens Attacked a Man on a Chicago Transit Authority Train”
That report focuses on an incident that happened during the late afternoon of February 17, 2024, when an unidentified 49-year-old man was robbed by four other men while riding a Chicago Transit Authority train.
“Robbed” hardly does that incident justice. As the committee explained, “The victim was put into ‘a vicious chokehold’ to the point he became unconscious and was robbed of ‘$400 and a cellphone’”, but even those details elide the brutality of the attack, as I’ll explain.
Four Venezuelan nationals – each of whom claimed they’d been living in “state-funded migrant shelters” at the time they were charged – were arrested for that crime: Johandry Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez (22); Wilker Miguel Gutierrez Sierra (21); Carlos Luis Carreno-Carreno (20); and Yonnier Jose Guasamucare-Garcia (18). The report explains how they all came to be in Chicago, Ill. that afternoon.
