You’ve probably seen the news, but just in case here is the UK Daily Mail on the dreadful news:
ICE blasts ‘dangerously flawed’ NYC sanctuary laws for letting Guyanese illegal immigrant, 21, walk free without bail just weeks before he ‘raped and murdered a 92-year-old woman’
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has blasted New York City’s sanctuary laws, saying the city ignored a federal immigration detainer for a man who went on to be charged with the rape and murder of a 92-year-old woman.
Reeaz Khan, 21, walked free without bail on assault and gun charges in late November, six weeks before he was arrested again on Friday and charged in the horrific murder of Maria Fuertes in Queens.
On Tuesday, ICE released a statement excoriating the city for not cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, saying the murder could have been prevented if its agents had been allowed in November to take custody of Khan, a Guyanese national who is present in the U.S. illegally.
‘New York City’s stance against honoring detainers is dangerously flawed,’ said Thomas R. Decker, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations field office director for New York. ‘It was a deadly choice to release a man on an active ICE detainer back onto the streets after his first arrest.’
There is much more here, but I warn you it is horrible.
So how did someone named Khan come to be living in Guyana?
Did you know about this—Afghan Muslims to Guyana.
To answer your question at the bottom Ann:
1/3rd of NYC’s population is foreign born. New York and California are the 2 states that absorbed the most non – white immigrants when US immigration law was changed back in 1965. NYC and Florida have large populations of Caribbean (West Indian) immigrants. The crime was committed in a heavily Indo-Guyanese neighborhood. Guyana is poor and corrupt, much of their population lives outside Guyana.
The perp is an illegal and was supposed to be deported but due to NYC’s sanctuary city policies, he wasn’t.
de Blasio should be arrested as well.
