An illegal alien has been arrested for the sexual exploitation of a 13-year-old girl in North Carolina—a horrific crime that could have been prevented if local authorities had honored an ICE detainer request instead of releasing a predator back onto American streets.
The disturbing case, highlighted by the White House on Tuesday, exposes the deadly real-world consequences of sanctuary policies that prioritize protecting criminal aliens over innocent American children. While ICE had issued a detainer requesting local authorities hold the suspect for federal immigration enforcement, North Carolina officials chose to ignore it—leaving a dangerous predator free to target a vulnerable child.
"ICE works tirelessly every day to remove predators like this from our streets. This is OUR WHY," the White House stated, emphasizing the critical importance of President Trump's mass deportation agenda.
This sickening crime represents exactly why millions of Americans voted for President Trump's promise to secure our borders and remove criminal aliens who have no business being in our country. How many more children must suffer because liberal politicians refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement?
Under the Trump-Vance administration, ICE has been unleashed to do their job—hunting down and removing the predators, gang members, and criminals who were allowed to flood across our border during the disastrous Biden years. But cases like this prove that local cooperation is essential to protecting our communities.
Sanctuary Policies Enable Child Predators
Every day that criminal aliens remain on American streets is another day our children are at risk. This 13-year-old victim's nightmare could have been prevented with a simple phone call from local authorities to ICE. Instead, political correctness and anti-Trump resistance put ideology over child safety.
Patriots across America are asking the same question: When will these sanctuary jurisdictions be held accountable for the crimes they enable? How many more innocent children will pay the price for liberal virtue signaling?
This is exactly why President Trump's deportation agenda isn't just about immigration—it's about protecting the most vulnerable members of our society from predators who should never have been here in the first place.
