Fox News: Some fentanyl dealers would be charged with felony murder under new bill
Legislation introduced in the House and Senate aims to charge fentanyl dealers with felony murder if their distribution leads to death. Current laws impose a minimum 20-year sentence, but the new bill seeks to enhance penalties amid a fentanyl crisis that has claimed about 280,000 lives since 2021.
The Felony Murder for Deadly Fentanyl Distribution Act, unveiled on National Fentanyl Awareness Day, is backed by Senator Joni Ernst and Representative Tony Gonzales. They emphasize the need for stricter consequences for those involved in the drug trade, particularly as fentanyl-related deaths are linked to illegal immigration and border security issues.

Fox News: Suspect in Noem purse snatching accused of similar crime in NY weeks before
Mario Bustamante Leiva, a Chilean national and illegal migrant, was arrested for stealing DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's purse after previously being released by NYPD for a prior theft. His release was due to New York’s sanctuary city laws, which prevent informing federal immigration officials.
Bustamante-Leiva has a history of criminal activity, including a significant theft spree in London. Following the theft of Noem's bag, which contained valuable items, he was arrested again and charged with multiple robberies, including fraudulent purchases made with stolen credit cards.
