A recent incident in Southern California has brought attention to the issue, where an illegal alien, Jose Abelardo Villegas-Orbe, has been charged with vehicular manslaughter following a deadly DUI crash.
The crash resulted in the death of 14-year-old La Quinta High School student, Liam Cantu, who was riding his bicycle when he was struck by Villegas-Orbe, an illegal immigrant with multiple prior DUI arrests.
The Biden administration's lenient immigration policies allowed Villegas-Orbe to remain free and unsuspected until this tragic incident occurred.
Despite his troubling history of DUI offenses, his prior arrests did not warrant immediate action from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), reflecting a broader failure of federal enforcement under current leadership.
