In doing research for this post, we looked up “killed by illegal immigrant” in our archives, and we pulled up a whole lot of posts on Americans killed by illegal immigrants, and just as many about liberals claiming conservatives were just using these rare incidents as “scare tactics.” If you’ve been with Twitchy for a while, you’ll be familiar with Katie Steinle, who was shot and killed on Pier 14 in San Francisco in 2015 by an illegal immigrant. In late 2017, a jury acquitted Jose Ines Garcia Zarate of murder and manslaughter charges but found him guilty of possessing a firearm. Immigration officials said soon after that they would … deport him. Justice at last. After the verdict, Kirsten Powers alleged that President Donald Trump had portrayed Steinle’s killing as a murder “to stir up bigotry against Mexicans.”
And that photo of Ana Navarro filing her nails we used with this post? That’s what she did on CNN when Steve Cortes tried to talk about crimes committed by illegal aliens against American citizens.
Keep the “Abolish ICE” crew in mind as you read about Florida Deputy Michael Hartwick, who was struck and killed by a car last week driven by Juan Ariel Molina-Salles, an illegal immigrant who’d been expelled to Mexico after crossing over at Eagle Pass, Texas, but managed to cross back over while evading capture. Maybe fly him to Martha’s Vineyard as punishment, huh, since it’s such a cruel thing to do.
NEW: Per ICE source, the man charged in the fatal hit & run of Pinellas County, FL deputy Michael Hartwick on Thursday is in the U.S. illegally. The sheriff says he crossed into Eagle Pass, TX in October and was expelled to MX. At some point, he crossed again without capture. pic.twitter.com/urBBWGk8Hf

It gets worse:
The local sheriff says Molina-Salles was using a fake name and that one of the construction workers helped conceal evidence by hiding it in the woods, while other workers, also in the U.S. illegally, gave misleading statements and IDs to law enforcement. https://t.co/pAw1Ne4uR0

No way. An illegal using a fake name? And other illegals lying to the cops?
This is absolutely INFURIATING. @JoeBiden needs to personally apologize to the families of those killed by illegal immigrants.
How many more Americans will Biden let die? SECURE THE BORDER. https://t.co/iEcxnaLQbD

I thought the Pinellas Sheriff said that he got back into the USA and came to the Tampa Bay Area in March of 2022. Wonder how he got here?

How do all of these illegals who cross at Eagle Pass in Texas end up in Florida? Human trafficking?
And was driving illegally without insurance and now he has killed an officer. Tell me again the border is secure.

And he’s just one of millions, completely unaccounted for. It won’t phase anyone until it hits home for them.

The media will IGNORE this. They will just keep going after DeSantis

Yes, flying 48 migrants to Martha’s Vineyard literally led the news cycle for a full week with calls for investigations into kidnapping and human trafficking. But this was just some deputy who got run over. Gavin Newsom, your thoughts?
“The search involved all the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office K9s, three helicopters, Pasco County bloodhounds & hundreds of law enforcement officers…”
Another senseless death caused by an illegal. Send the bill for the search to @SecMayorkas — this is all on him & his boss.
