An illegal immigrant who's been deported five times will be facing the death penalty for a Phoenix murder. Demetro Acosta-Uribe is accused of shooting Ivan Santos to death earlier this year.
According to police reports the Santos's body was found in May, 2007 in the front yard of a west Phoenix home. The victim had been shot to death after he was bound and his head covered in plastic wrap.
Two other men were also found on the property, restrained in the same manner. Neither had been shot, but one of the victims would have suffocated had a neighbor not rescued him.
Police allege Santos was shot and killed as he tried to escape.
The Maricopa County Attorney's office says the case is an example of how wide open borders expose the Valley to violent crime.
Andrew Thomas said the government's continuing failure to control the border has made Maricopa County residents vulnerable to violence.

The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office is releasing the deportation dates despite a federal policy that claims releasing the dates of official deportation would violate Acosta-Uribe’s privacy.
The County Attorney’s Office has concluded the public’s right to know is more important than a federal policy that has no basis in law, and that represents the expansion of special rights for illegal immigrants.
hahahaha take that feds.
No doubt the libs will argue that he should not be executed because he’s a Mexican citizen.
Well, the UN and the Mexican Council will say that. It always galls me when the Mexican Council says that the murder never understood they could contact the Mexican Council and therefor needs to go free.
Another notch for your belts...
This just proves that the fence can't work (/sarc).
Five times. And yet some think we don’t need a wall.
What we need is a two-stage fence. The first fence can be ordinary chain link, with signs every 50 feet warning that the second fence is a LETHAL electric fence, then, make it so.
