Idaho: Guilty Plea in Horrific Murder of Refugee Child

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 7 Comments

Imagine the horror!  A refugee family was celebrating a child’s third birthday in Idaho’s refugee capitol city of Boise and a knife-wielding madman arrives and kills the birthday girl and injures other adults and children.

 

Ruya Kadir murdered at her third birthday party.

 

The horror happened in 2018 and I reported it here at Refugee Resettlement Watch. Unless you were a regular reader of RRW, you probably never heard this story.

Initially everyone assumed that Timmy Kinner was too mentally impaired to stand trial.  But you will see here in the latest news on the case that a trial was scheduled after it was determined he knew what he was doing.

There is relief all around that he has plead guilty and the spectacle of a trial has been avoided.

The refugee resettlement agency that placed the family in Boise is especially relieved saying it would be hard on the family.

Kinner’s plea deal will prevent a potentially lengthy and difficult trial for the victims, according to Julianne Donnelly Tzul, executive director of the International Rescue Committee*** in Boise.

The IRC’s relief is understandable.

It is not a good look when a refugee contractor whose whole supposed mission is to rescue poor people from third world dangers then places them in dangerous neighborhoods in America.

Diversity is strength—NOT!

Over the years, I have noticed time and again that somehow these naïve refugee contractors think that everyone is going to magically get along in a mythical American melting pot. But, I digress.

Guess who else is saved from such a trial—the whole BLM media establishment.

Here is the latest at Fox News:

Idaho mass stabbing suspect Timmy Kinner pleads guilty to murder of girl, 3

Timmy Kinner, a suspect accused of killing a 3-year-old little girl at her birthday party, and wounding eight others during a stabbing rampage in Boise, Idaho, nearly three years ago, has pleaded guilty to several crimes, including first-degree murder.

Kinner pleaded guilty Tuesday to one count of first-degree murder, eight counts of aggravated battery, two counts of aggravated assault, and one count of use of a deadly weapon, according to the Ada County Prosecutor’s Office. The pleas were entered as part of a stipulated plea agreement, court records showed.

Kinner was arrested in 2018, accused of attacking nine people during the birthday party of Ruya Kadir at a Boise apartment complex. Ruya died from her injuries and eight other people, including five children, were wounded during the attack.

Refugees want the death penalty….

On Tuesday, Anmar Lafta, who is related to some of the stabbing victims, said he wants Kinner sentenced to death, according to the Idaho Statesman. However, it was unclear if his plea agreement will keep that option open.  [Surely there will be no death sentence! Taxpayers will be praying for the creep for decades!—ed]

“What he did to children, to the family, he broke family hearts and he killed children. Those people should go to death without even thinking about it,” Lafta said. “… They’re not adults, they hadn’t seen life yet. They ran away from war to come here, and look what happened to them.”

Kinner was ruled incompetent to stand trial for several months after his arrest. Attorneys for Kinner argued that he suffered from “mental conditions” which impaired his decision-making skills and the ability for them to defend him, Boise’s KTVB-TV reported. Despite those arguments, he was declared mentally fit to stand trial in October 2019.

Kinner’s plea deal will prevent a potentially lengthy and difficult trial for the victims, according to Julianne Donnelly Tzul, executive director of the International Rescue Committee in Boise.

Poof! With this, the story will be gone from the news!

*** For readers new to the LEGAL US Refugee Admissions Program, the IRC is one of the nine federal resettlement contractors that the US State Department hires to place refugees throughout America.

Only ten days ago, I reported that the IRC was charged with fraud by the US Justice Department and must repay nearly $7 million to you, the taxpayers, to settle the case.

That $7 million is a drop in the bucket to the IRC.  They are extremely wealthy and pay their CEO close to a million bucks a year.

I wonder if the refugees could sue the IRC for placing them in that dangerous neighborhood?

Here are the nine federal contractors that are changing America by changing the people:

 

Refugee Agency Settles Fraud Case with US Department of Justice

~ Ann Corcoran

The International Rescue Committee “[engaged] in collusive behavior and misconduct….”

(US Department of Justice)

The International Rescue Committee (IRC for short), one of nine refugee resettlement contractors*** that do business with the US State Department, has agreed to repay US taxpayers nearly $7 million to settle a fraud case.

In 2013, the CEO of the IRC, Brit David Miliband, gave George Soros its FREEDOM Award. Soros had a long involvement with the IRC and at one point sat on its board of directors.  https://refugeeresettlementwatch.org/2013/11/09/federal-refugee-contractor-gives-freedom-award-to-george-soros/

The fraud, which occurred during the Obama administration, was discovered in its USAID program to supposedly help Syrian refugees in Turkey.

Seven million is peanuts for the IRC!

If you follow my other blog Refugee Resettlement Watch you know that this contractor, a fake non-profit refugee agency, is financially the richest of the nine contractors having received $440 million in one recent year from American taxpayers.  See 2018 IRS Form 990.

Note on that IRS Form 990 that (moneybags) Miliband pulls down an annual salary and benefits package of nearly $1 million.

And, the IRC is a politically active refugee agency (as are all of the nine) having worked against the Trump administration and advocated for the election of Joe Biden.

Here is the Department of Justice press release outlining the fraud case and the settlement agreement.

The International Rescue Committee (“IRC”) Agrees to Pay $6.9 Million To Settle Allegations That It Performed Procurement Fraud by Engaging in Collusive Behavior and Misconduct on Programs Funded by the United States Agency for International Development

WASHINGTON – The Justice Department announced today that the International Rescue Committee (“IRC”) has agreed to pay $6.9 million to settle allegations under the False Claims Act related to United States Agency for International Development (“USAID”)-funded programming for beneficiaries affected by the conflict in Syria.

The settlement announced on March 16, 2021, is part of a civil resolution involving the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, USAID, and the USAID Office of Inspector General (OIG).

IRC is a global humanitarian aid, relief and development nongovernmental organization that provides emergency aid and long-term assistance to refugees. It is headquartered in New York, New York. In the early years of the conflict in Syria, IRC received USAID funding for humanitarian assistance programming, specifically to provide emergency cross-border humanitarian assistance to internally displaced persons located within Syria.

USAID’s OIG conducted investigations in Turkey into allegations that IRC staff participated in a collusion and kickback scheme with a Turkish supply ring, which included bid-rigging activities in the selection of goods and services contracts for cross-border humanitarian relief into Syria. USAID OIG and the USAO-DC Civil Division also investigated allegations that IRC staff received kickbacks, steered bid procurement tenders, and allowed conflicts of interest between staff and suspect vendors. The investigation revealed that conduct by IRC staff resulted in the procurement of goods at unreasonably high prices, which were subsequently invoiced to USAID from October 2012 to December 2015.

USAO-DC Civil Division and USAID OIG thoroughly examined all source documents including contracts, proposals, contract terms, and invoices, in the lead-up to IRC’s agreement to pay the United States $6,934,500 to settle the False Claims Act allegations.

We are happy to bring this case to resolution and will continue to work with Offices of Inspectors General to ensure that humanitarian aid dollars that are targeted for humanitarian assistance for displaced persons are not compromised by lax oversight controls but are used appropriately to help those in dire need,” said Acting United States Attorney Channing D. Phillips.

Acting USAID Inspector General Thomas J. Ullom stated, “This settlement sends a strong message that USAID-funded implementers must have systems in place to detect, deter, and prevent fraud in humanitarian assistance programming. Aid organizations that lack proper monitoring and oversight controls over their procurement processes put taxpayer dollars at risk and compromise the delivery of critical assistance to those in need. USAID OIG’s global investigative operations will continue to shine a light on and drive consequences for fraud affecting USAID programming.”

Fraud is not rare in the refugee resettlement industry as we noted here last month.

Fraud Uncovered in Special Refugee Admissions Program for Iraqis

 

***For New Readers these are the nine federal refugee contractors who worked to put Biden and Harris in the White House; are lobbying for millions of illegal aliens to be transformed into legal voting citizens; and they have succeeded in getting the new administration to promise to raise the ceiling for refugee admissions to 125,000 for next year FY2022—that is the highest cap in 29 years.

The 62,500 cap you may have been hearing about is for the remainder of FY21.  FY21 ends in less than 7 months. So far Biden is dragging his feet  on signing necessary documents to open the spigot.

The contractors are in my opinion fake charities because they are largely paid by you, the taxpayer, for their work of changing America by changing the people, and in so doing, are putting struggling Americans last!

Busted in Tennessee: Somali Students Ripped-Off College to the Tune of $114,000

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 9 Comments

Just so you know that Minnesota isn’t the only place in America where refugee contractors and the US State Department salted a Somali population, Tennessee got them too!

This is the kind of story I was thinking about when I first began this blog!

To counter the ‘new American’ fluff stories I wanted to show that some of those migrants, supposedly simply “looking for a better life,” are actually getting a better life at great expense to us, both financially and culturally.

Lately I’ve been distracted by so much news involving political frauds and crooks, so it’s good to have a reminder of why this blog came into being.

From The Tennessee Conservative (hat tip: Gary):

Pair of Middle Tennessee Students Accused Of Stealing $114,000 From University

 

Two Middle Tennessee State University students have been charged with stealing more than $114,000 from the university.

Refugee poster boys: Mohamed Gure, Mohamed Osman. Almost all Somalis in America came as refugees, or they are the children of refugees. More like Gure and Osman will soon be on the way to Biden’s America.

 

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced Wednesday that Mohamed Gure and Mohamed Osman were indicted by a Rutherford County grand jury for fraudulently obtaining student activity fee payments from the university over a three-year period.

The Tennessee comptroller’s office, which helped TBI with the investigation, said Gure and Osman stole $114,145 between November 2017 and November 2020.

Gure was charged with one count of theft over $60,000, one count of theft over $10,000, 30 counts of forgery and two counts of criminal simulation. Osman was charged with one count of theft over $60,000, 28 counts of forgery and two counts of criminal simulation.

The comptroller’s office said Gure and Osman were presidents of MTSU’s Somali Students Association when they submitted at least 85 false invoices for reimbursements totaling $82,200 of student activity fee funds. Many of the invoices were for payments to nonexistent vendors, the comptroller’s office said.

[….]

“MTSU should ensure its Student Organizations and Service Office carefully reviews supporting documentation before reimbursing student organizations,” Comptroller Jason Mumpower said in a statement. “Our investigators also noted several instances in which MTSU officials were not following their own guidance when processing reimbursements.”

Gure and Osman were arrested and booked Tuesday into the Rutherford County Jail. Gure’s bond was set at $60,000, and Osmon’s bond was set at $50,000.

Middle Tennessee State University is located in Murfreesboro, 33 miles from Nashville. The Somali Student Association facebook page is here.

Did any of you have any idea that public colleges (funded by taxpayers!) were shelling out this kind of money for student organizations?

I have to say that some of these ‘new Americans’ are clever scammers, but not quite clever enough this time!

Twenty-six House Republicans Tell Biden: Do Not Weaken Vetting of Refugees!

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 6 Comments

President Trump had followed through on his promise to use extreme vetting when reviewing applicants for the US Refugee Admissions Program and Chairman Joe has already said his administration will do away with the extra layers of security screening.

Twenty-six House Republicans earlier this month sent a letter to the administration, soon to be entirely run by Kamala (after dementia Joe said some very damaging things in his infomercial with Anderson Cooper), urging that they not let-up on vetting refugees and immigrants who want to be your new neighbors.

I hadn’t seen this news a week ago, and only became aware of it when I read the ABC story (below), a whiny account of how Biden can’t get the refugee admission numbers high enough very fast because of how that mean-spirited Trump had decimated the refugee industry over four years.

And, because they have to get rid of Trump’s extreme vetting before the pipeline to America will flow smoothly.

It is clear in the ABC story below that Biden/Harris are going to begin funneling millions of dollars to the refugee resettlement contractors*** as fast as they can.

Trump ‘decimated’ refugee program hampering Biden’s historic goal: Advocates

 

My question is:

Since there are 211 Republicans in the House right now, where do the other 185 stand on this vital security issue?

From Fox News:

House Republicans caution Biden administration against weakening vetting of refugees

EXCLUSIVE: More than two dozen House Republicans on Wednesday urged the Biden administration to oppose efforts to weaken screening for immigrants and refugees coming to the U.S. over national security concerns.

“We are extremely concerned with the Biden Administration’s plans to weaken screening and vetting for foreign nationals coming to the United States, including refugee applicants in the [U.S. Refugee Admissions Program] and other humanitarian-based U.S. immigration programs,” the letter, signed by 26 House Republicans says.

Go here to see the letter, and below is a screenshot of signatures of the 26 House members you should be thanking. You should let others in your district know about their brave work. Maybe write a letter to the editor of your local paper.

And, if you have a Republican Congressman or Congresswoman and they aren’t on here, ask them why they aren’t urging extra caution in vetting prospective ‘new Americans.’

 

 

***If you are new to the refugee issue, here below are the nine federal contractors that put the wellbeing of refugees above struggling Americans.

Adding insult to injury, you pay them with your tax dollars to place refugees throughout the country. They along with the US State Department determine where they will be placed.

And, these nine are always busy on The Hill putting pressure on lawmakers.

You can bet they blasted the twenty six above for daring to suggest that terrorists and other criminals could get into the program.

 

 

Expanding Refugee Resettlement is Least Favorite of Biden Executive Orders (so far)

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 3 Comments

And, five of the seven least favorite involve immigration, proving once again that Trump was always on the right track when he attempted to slow immigration, but for some unexplained reason he steered clear of the issue in the 2020 race.

From Morning Consult:

Biden’s Move to Expand Refugee Admissions Is His Most Unpopular Executive Action So Far

48% of voters oppose the president’s plan to allow 125,000 refugees into the country in the upcoming fiscal year, while 39% support it.

Five of the seven least popular actions pertain to immigration and immigrant rights.

You can bet the pro-open borders biased media is going to bury this news!

To see the chart more clearly go to Morning Consult.

 

See my post yesterday at RRW where I explain that refugee numbers will be exploding in the coming year and it will depend on you and local organizing if you have any hope of saving your community from massive social, cultural and economic upheaval.

Pinned Post: Personal Story From a Reader Reminds Me! It is now up to YOU!

Let me be clear!  Most Republicans in the House and Senate will not help you! Republican governors have already proven that they too have no spine.

They want more refugees for their business buddies at the Chamber of Commerce.  Refugees work for lower wages and they buy stuff—like used cars!

So they don’t care what you think!
