The sanctuary city of Chicago is to blame in the heinous murder of a 63-year-old man in his own home by two illegals that Joe Biden let over the border in 2023.
The man was tied up and suffocated to death.
As Matt Fin reports:
Guy Benson reports that local media has confirmed one of the illegals was arrested just days before on ‘child luring’, but local officials weren’t allowed to coordinate with ICE and released him:
Here’s the news report:
A 21-year-old man who was arrested in Norwood Park on Jan. 12 in connection with a reported child luring incident is now facing charges in the murder and robbery of a 63-year-old man who on Jan. 26 died in the basement of a relative’s home, also in Norwood Park on Chicago’s NW Side.
A possible second suspect, who reportedly lives in Norwood Park, also is in custody for the murder of George Levin. The incident reportedly involved two assailants who came over to his basement unit in the 7600 block of West Talcott Avenue as part of a pre-arranged meetup. He was bound with duct tape and beaten, and reportedly a relative of Levin’s may have encountered one of the killers inside the house, not knowing at the time what was occurring inside the basement.
Alderman Anthony Napolitano, whose 41st Ward includes Norwood Park, said at noon Thursday, Jan. 30, that “two persons of interest” are custody and that charges are pending. He added that the incident was not a random act of violence.
Napolitano said that while formal charges have not been filed in the murder of Levin, news reports that one of them had been arrested a couple weeks earlier for child luring and released after the charge was reduced is disturbing.
“Another f—ing failure of the justice system. … They gave him the opportunity to commit another (offense),” Napolitano said. “The offender nowadays is the victim.”
The luring incident on Jan. 12 involved a man who reportedly called two girls, ages 12 and 13, over to his vehicle in the 6200 block of North Sayre Avenue, according to Chicago police. The man was arrested on suspicion of child luring, but the charge was reduced to simple assault, and he was released from custody the next day, police said.
A second man inside the vehicle was detained but not charged in the luring incident, police said.
The gruesome nature of the murder along with possible implications on the controversy surrounding whether the city should cooperate with federal officials on the deportation of undocumented immigrants who have committed violent crimes has led to this case being watched carefully by the “fifth floor of City Hall,” according to a source.
“I’ve been fighting against this f— ing B.S. for 10 years,” Napolitano said of the city’s Sanctuary City status. He said that Chicago police should be working with federal law enforcement to detain and deport violent offenders who are in the county illegally in an effort to protect citizens. He added that it is unconscionable for Mayor Johnson to use police to prevent Inspector General representatives from entering the room where he stores the gifts he receives as mayor but won’t let police cooperate with I.C.E. to remove dangerous criminals. The IG office was denied access to the room and has called for changes in how the mayor reports the gifts he is given.
This could have all been avoided if Chicago didn’t have their horrible sanctuary city laws. As far as the pre-arranged meetup goes, we don’t know what happened. It could have been that these illegals were posing as a female online and were using that as a cover to rob people. Whatever the case, this horrific murder didn’t have to happen and Chicago is absolutely to blame.
