Here's an ICE sob story to make you feel for those families being separated. A Coachella city councilwoman wept during a local television interview after the FBI arrested her husband in a Walmart parking lot. Why is ICE picking on people who haven't done anything wrong except enter the country illegally? It turns out the local news left out a few details, which Fox News' Bill Melugin has filled in.
His post continues:
Her husband is a previously deported Mexican illegal alien with a lengthy rap sheet of several felony convictions, including possession of a controlled substance (meth) for sale, inflicting corporal injury to a spouse, DUI, and assault with a deadly weapon, according to ICE.
Isidro Jimenez-Ibanez is also now looking at prosecution for felony re-entry, as federal authorities are now charging him with violation of 8 USC 1326, illegal alien found in the US after deportation, which was the reason for his FBI/ICE arrest in the Coachella parking lot. The FBI had a criminal warrant signed by a federal magistrate when they arrested him.
It is a felony to re-enter the US illegally after deportation, punishable by up to 2 years in prison on the first offense.
A judge has since released him on bond.
Why are we not surprised a judge released him on bond?
He hasn't paid nearly enough.
Border czar Tom Homan has made it clear that he's not in the business of separating families. They'll all be deported together.
It's California.
He absolutely sounds like a flight risk. You'd think someone convicted of assault with a deadly weapon would be best kept behind bars.
