The Washington Times<\/a> tells the story of Armando Garcia-Ramirez whom immigration officials twice tried to expel from this country, but they bumped up against the Obama Justice Department. He now stands accused of the murder of his 15-year-old step-daughter, Jennifer Delgado, whom he had impregnated twice;<\/p>\n

He was arrested in 2008 for assault, but the local prosecutor opted to drop the case. He was charged with theft in 2009, but the case was dismissed. In 2011 immigration agents arrested him and tried to deport him, but he was granted bond and released.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear what happened to that case, but five years later, he was still in the U.S., where he was arrested for smuggling five other illegal immigrants, according to federal documents. Mr. Garcia was turned over to Homeland Security agents, who pushed for a trial, but the local U.S. attorney refused to prosecute, saying there wasn\u2019t a good witness.<\/p>\n

Immigration agents again tried to deport Mr. Garcia, but he was again released on bond. A month and a half after he was released, he applied for legal status in the U.S. \u2014 despite his criminal record \u2014 and in November 2016 the Obama administration approved his work permit, giving him the right to work, get a driver\u2019s license and apply for a Social Security number and taxpayer benefits.<\/p>\n

Mr. Garcia\u2019s case touched all three immigration agencies within Homeland Security: Customs and Border Protection, where Border Patrol agents were involved in the smuggling case; U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which handled the failed deportation efforts; and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is the agency he asked to approve his legal status.<\/p>\n

CBP and USCIS declined to comment, while ICE officials said it was immigration judges who granted him bond in both deportation cases. ICE failed to explain why the cases were never pursued further to actually deport Mr. Garcia from the country.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to the UK’s Daily Mail<\/a>, he lured his estranged wife away from her apartment while he went in and killed the teenager and, of course, their unborn baby. He then tried to kill himself, but he was unsuccessful at that attempt. Now, he’s facing the charges of two counts of capital murder, for the teen and her unborn child.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
