Immigration Subcommittee to Hold Hearing on Criminal Alien Threat: A hearing will be held in the nation's capitol on Tuesday by the Immigration and Border Security Subcommittee to examine the public safety threat posed by criminal aliens stemming from the Obama administration's weak immigration policies and failure to secure the border, according to a press release from earlier this month. Under Obama's weak enforcement of immigration laws, between October 2011 and December 2014, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement released criminal aliens with violent backgrounds from detention over 105,000 times. "It should not take the tragic death of another innocent life for this administration to begin enforcing out laws," said Subcommittee Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.). A Maryland sheriff, a bishop and two mothers of victims murdered by illegal immigrants will be present as witnesses at the hearing. One of those mothers testified that the illegal immigrant who murdered her daughter had his bail set at "less than the amount it cost to bury my baby."
CA Border Patrol Finds 3rd Tunnel in One Year: Border Patrol agents in southern California discovered the third cross-border tunnel from Mexico to the U.S. in just one year, officials announced Monday. Anna Giaritelli of the Washington Examiner reports that the 142-foot-long man-made tunnel, uncovered Sunday, originated 60 feed south of the border. All three tunnels were found in the Calexico region, a U.S. town of 40,000 residents. Immigration officials did not confirm or deny whether an arrest had been made in connection to the tunnel. The announcement of the discovery comes as immigration experts warn that California could see a new surge in unaccompanied alien children from Central America this year.
Chicago Toddler Survives Being Shot in the Head: A one-year-old Chicago girl was released from the hospital Monday after being shot in the head last week. Alexis Myers of the Chicago Tribune reports that Khlo'e Chatman-Teague was struck by a stray bullet last Friday when someone from another vehicle opened fire on her aunt's vehicle that she was in. A single bullet pierced the trunk of the car and flattened before lodging at the base of the little girl's skull. Khlo'e is one of four children under the age of 10 shot in Chicago so far this year. Shootings and homicides have increased by more than 50% through mid-April over the same period in 2015. "It's safe nowhere in Chicago," said Kelly Chatman, Khlo'e's mother.
