ISIS Border Threat:  Judicial Watch published a report last month with information revealing that a camp operated by the terror group Islamic State (ISIS) is located across the Mexican border, just a few miles from El Paso, Texas.  Tom Fitton of Breitbart reports that the area where the camp is located, known as Anapra, is a cartel-dominated region which makes it dangerous for the Mexican Army or Federal Police to traverse and investigate.  The Mexican government and the Obama Administration have denied ISIS is operating in Mexico.

ISIS Claims Responsibility for Texas Attack:  ISIS claimed responsibility today for Sunday's attack at a cartoon contest in Texas that depicted images of the Muslim prophet Muhammad.  The attack left one security guard injured and both suspects dead.  Fox News reports that the message, delivered on the group's Syrian based radio station, warned of more attacks on America, describing what is to come as "bitter and harsher."  It is not immediately clear whether ISIS is capitalizing on a "lone wolf" attack, but authorities have uncovered connections between one of the gunmen and overseas Twitter accounts.

Prop. 47 And Realignment's Unintended Consequences:  Riverside County's top law enforcement officials, county sheriff, District Attorney, and head of probation all agree that the state's AB 109 prison Realignment law and Proposition 47 have "resulted in many unintended consequences."  Jeff Stahl of KESQ reports that both laws have allowed criminals to repeatedly get away with their crimes, essentially removing any deterrent effect.  Officials believe that the state should transition back to progressive sentencing, which "provides increasingly harsh sentences for people who repeatedly break laws."

Illegal Immigrant Kidnaps, Beats Woman:  A Texas woman was kidnapped and badly beaten over the weekend at her home by an illegal immigrant.  Everything Lubbock reports that the victim was found tied up on her front porch with serious trauma to her head and body.  Texas Rangers identified Juan Gutierrez Cortez as a suspect, who confessed to the crime when he was brought in for questioning.  Cortez has been charged with aggravated kidnapping and burglary with intent to commit assault.  Due to his illegal immigrant status, ICE has placed a hold on him.
