I wonder if it’s a Muslim? They got a serious thing for thinking they have a right to commit rape.

The Marxist Liberals in Congress including Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi won’t like this poor criminal immigrant being held and neither will the MSM, ya think?

An Iowa jury is less likely to give him a pass than that San Fransicko jury did to Kate Steinle’s murderer.

Killer is an illegal Hispanic named "Rivera". Supposedly he is 24 years old and employed.

My question is two fold:

  1. Who is the employer?
  2. Why didn't the employer run "e-verify"?
If the employer had run "e-verify" Mollie Tibbetts would still be alive.

Aren’t Des Moines and Ames, Iowa sanctuary cities? Though I doubt Brooklyn, Iowa and some of the smaller cities have rushed to support illegals.

The Sheriff said the illegal alien has been here for 4-6 years.

YEARS.

He was illegal.
And no one seems to have done SQUAT to kick his ass out of our country.

If our worthless politicians had secured our border this wouldn’t have happened.
If our worthless justice system had kicked him out of the country this wouldn’t have happened.

This young woman is dead because our system failed.
