An illegal immigrant alien fled to Mexico after he was arrested for his involvement in a fatal car accident. Alejandro Maldonado-Hernandez was street-racing when he crashed into an Oregon couple’s car, killing an older woman and severely injuring her husband. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is now blaming the Washington County Sheriff’s office for not honoring an immigrant detainer request.

By no means ideal though:
LAREDO, Texas - Webb County Medical Examiner Dr. Corinne Stern told Breitbart News Tonight that her storage facilities are now packed beyond capacity following the deaths of at least 155 migrants in 2019.
“We are in dire need of space,” Dr. Stern told Breitbart’s Alex Marlow and Brandon Darby. “We have two portable morgue units that are on loan to us from the Laredo City Health Department — they are full. We also have a large one from the State.”
“We have [the migrants] tripled on each table,” she explained. Dr. Stern said they were forced to remove the gurneys from her two large coolers. “We didn’t have enough space so we put them on the floor.” Dr. Stern said the Mexican cartels engaging in human smuggling do not warn migrants of what they will face along the way. “They’re not telling them, ‘It’s going to be 111 degrees when you cross and you’re not going to have adequate water.’ They’re not telling them this — it’s all dollars and cents.”
And those numbers are way on the low side; ranchers are constantly running across remains of illegal aliens on their properties - it's a common occurrence. Sometimes they're skeletal; many have been partly consumed by local scavengers.
Of the “intact” migrant bodies recovered this year, the office has positively identified 73 and has tentative identifications on 38 more. The demographics include 115 males and 14 females ranging in age from 10 months to 61 years.
Most of the identified came to the U.S. from Mexico (36). This is followed by 14 from Honduras, 7 from Guatemala, four from El Salvador, four from Ecuador, and two from Nicaragua. Ninety of the migrants died from hyperthermia (heat stroke) or dehydration, 31 from drowning, five from motor vehicle accidents, and two from natural causes.
And there's still another month and a half to go for 2019....

They must find
A place to hide...
Officials in Montgomery County, Maryland have dropped a portion of their sanctuary policy — which had been shielding criminal illegal aliens from deportation — following a series of sex crimes allegedly committed by illegal aliens.
ABC 7 News’s Kevin Lewis reports that Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich (D) has “quietly reversed” the county’s sanctuary policy whereby agents with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency had been banned from entering secure locations of the county jail to properly take custody over illegal aliens charged with crimes.
Nine illegals busted for rapes in the past two months. That even got the attention of a Democratic.

The report doesn’t identify these “super emitters,” but notes that landfills give off more methane than any other source in the state. NASA’s equipment found that a subset of these landfills were the largest emitters in California and exhibited “persistent anomalous activity.”
The study marks the first time anyone has ever carried out a systematic survey across California of methane, a greenhouse gas that’s 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide in trapping heat and contributing to global warming. The release of methane has been a continual challenge for California, which has some of the most aggressive goals in the nation for curbing emissions and slowing the impacts of climate change.
NASA’s aircraft made dozens of flights across 10,000 square miles from 2016 through 2018. Landfills accounted for 41% of the source emissions it identified, manure management 26% and oil and gas operations 26%.
At this point, California has the highest marginal tax rate in the entire country. Los Angeles City Hall is being overrun by rats.
If that's a problem, then Angelenos should probably quit voting them into office.
Just a thought....
Although the state's population hasn't grown appreciably in recent years, businesses continue to move their headquarters out of California, taking large numbers of employees with them. Almost half of its citizens have moved to other states, and surveys indicate that some 53% would like to leave. The population stats are stabilized to a large degree by the huge number of illegal aliens settling into the state.
In areas receiving fleeing citizens from California, many long-time residents have had about enough, because California expatriates bring the very political views that have created the conditions from which they're fleeing - and that's not appreciated by folks in places like much of Texas, southern Oregon, and elsewhere.

A Honduran worker injured in the collapse of a Hard Rock Hotel under construction in New Orleans is being held for deportation, immigration authorities said Saturday.
Delmer Joel Ramirez Palma, part of a group of workers suing the developers of the structure that collapsed Oct. 12, was arrested Monday and detained for deportation, said Bryan D. Cox, acting press secretary of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
ICE's Cox said Ramirez will receive treatment for injuries he suffered in the collapse while he is in federal custody.
With any luck, the feds will also go after the company that hired Palma. With 22 million illegal aliens in the country, more effort needs to go into pursuing those who hire them.

A British family currently held in U.S. immigration custody was arrested for making what U.S. agents believe was a deliberate attempt to enter the United States illegally from Canada, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency said Tuesday.
The arrest and detention of the Connors family has received extensive coverage in the United States and Britain after their attorney described them as tourists who accidentally drove across the border and ended up jailed with their small children in what they called squalid conditions. The family’s attorney, Bridget Cambria, said her clients were driving near the U.S. border south of Vancouver on Oct. 2 when they swerved to avoid an animal and veered into the United States inadvertently. The family members said they were stopped by a U.S. agent, were denied a request to return to Canada and instead were sent to a family detention center in Pennsylvania, where they are being held pending deportation.
Well, I've been up there, and what they did was no "accident" - the parallel roads along each side of the border have numerous signs declaring the existence of the international boundary. Moreover, in many places there are fences, while in other areas there are ditches. Oh, and lots of CCTV cameras as well....
CBP officials disputed the family’s version of events and said the Connors were spotted via video surveillance “slowly and deliberately driving through a ditch onto Boundary Road in Lynden, Washington,” between parallel roadways on the U.S. and Canadian sides. The roads are not connected by cross streets, and the only legal way to traverse between the countries is through staffed border stations throughout the region. The CBP statement said U.S. agents also determined that two of the family members had applied for travel authorization to visit the United States and were denied.
“Attempts were made to return the individuals to Canada, however, Canada refused to allow their return and two attempts to contact the United Kingdom consulate were unsuccessful,” the CBP statement read.
BUT the tale grows deeper:
The Irish travellers were accused of scamming and stealing their way around Brisbane allegedly used their children to steal designer shoes, police revealed. Most of them are believed to have fled Australia at the weekend after their images were released, while four remaining suspects are being closely monitored by Queensland police and border force officers. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was asked about the Irish scammers on Wednesday, insisting people who commit crimes in Australia should be hauled before the courts.
Looks to me as though our border patrol folks did a good job, here.
As to why Canada declined to have them back: they likely talked with Aussie authorities - the "family" has been banned from returning to Australia.

And I'm not talking about well-endowed women:
WASHINGTON—Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested almost 1,300 illegal immigrants during a weeklong operation that focused on locations that have adopted sanctuary policies—those that shield illegal immigrants, including criminals, from immigration officials. In New York, at least three of the 82 aliens arrested in the operation had pending child rape charges and had been released from NYPD jails, despite ICE placing a detainer on them. The men are from Mexico, Jamaica, and Dominican Republic.
In Philadelphia, ICE arrested Dominican national Edward De Oleo Valdez, after he had been released from jail on Aug. 13. De Oleo Valdez was released from the Curran Fromhold Correctional Facility after serving a sentence for raping a child, according to ICE. The agency had lodged a detainer with the jail. Of the criminal aliens arrested during the sweep, 100 had convictions for sexual assault or crimes, with the victims of nearly half of them being children, according to acting ICE Director Matt Albence. A further three had convictions for manslaughter or murder; 70 had convictions for drug crimes; and more than 320 had convictions for driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
In Oregon, they hand out driver licenses like candy to illegal aliens, though they're tougher on American citizens. It's known as being "progressive" - but progressing to what? That, they won't answer.
Last year, ICE made more than 105,000 criminal arrests and removed more than 145,000 criminal aliens. Almost 10,000 of the arrests and 6,000 of the removals were gang members.
Just here to do the jobs that Americans won't do....

They come here illegally, hook up with the Salvadoran gangs known as "MS-13", and...
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles unsealed Tuesday charges against 22 MS-13 gang members, “most of whom allegedly participated in a series of murders, including several slayings in which victims were hacked to death with machetes in the Angeles National Forest.”
Just here to do the jobs that Americans won't do.
Many of those accused are young individuals who came to the country within the last four years, Delacourt said. Only three of them are over 24 years old.
Electrocute them. Bring Old Sparky back, and have their buddies watch.

Hundreds of illegal immigrants have brought mumps into the country across 19 states, according to a new government report. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Thursday that nearly 1,000 illegal immigrants housed in various detention centers in 19 states have contracted mumps, and it is growing.
“The CDC report said more than 80 percent of patients were exposed while in custody. Mumps is a contagious virus that causes swollen glands, puffy cheeks, fever, headaches and, in severe cases, hearing loss and meningitis,” the paper added.
And still some folks here oppose border security.

The Bureau of Justice Statistics said that federal arrests of non-Americans rose 234% from 1998-2018. For U.S. citizens, the percentage rose just 10% over those 20 years.
Immigration expert Jessica M. Vaughan said the increase in arrests is due to increasing prosecution of illegal entry and re-entry by migrants. "Experience has taught the immigration agencies and DOJ that this works to reduce recidivism – in other words, when illegal crossers face some more severe consequence than just being sent back home, they don’t keep doing it," she explained.
Justice was very pointed in comparing U.S. citizens arrested to noncitizens. For example, it noted that while they make up just 7% of the U.S. population, noncitizens account for 15% of the arrests by federal authorities, 24% of drug arrests, 25% of federal property arrests, including 28% of all federal fraud arrests. Vaughan, the director of policy studies for the Center for Immigration Studies, said that the statistics and types of crimes disprove claims by pro-immigration advocates that illegal immigrants aren't involved in crimes.
Much as it pains me to say it, we really need to build more prisons. When these jerks break our law regarding immigration with no real consequences, why not break a few more?
Lock 'em up!
After they've served time, we can talk about "repatriation".
