The illegal immigrant children streaming across the U.S.-Mexico border have become a breeding pool for criminal gangs, the Frederick County sheriff told Congress on Tuesday, pointing to a long list of crimes ranging from attempted murder and kidnapping to home invasion and carjacking.
Hundreds of thousands of the children have entered the U.S. and been allowed to stay under controversial Obama administration policies, and Republicans used a hearing Tuesday to try to highlight the American victims parents whose children were killed by illegal immigrants who gained a foothold here because of those generous policies.
Michelle Root, mother of Sarah Root, recounted her daughters death in Omaha earlier this year at the hands of an illegal immigrant who police said was drag racing while drunk, smashed into the young womans car and left her brain-dead.
A local judge set his bail at less than the amount it cost to bury my baby, and federal immigration authorities refused to come pick him up, allowing him to escape into the shadows, where he may have fled back to his home country, Honduras.
We are not against immigration. Sarahs grandmother was an immigration from Vienna, Austria. She did it right, she did it the right way. Thats all were asking, Ms. Root said.
Bishop Minerva Carcano of the United Methodist Church fired back, saying that using those stories to press for illegal immigrants to be deported amounted to blind vengeance.

That sorry excuse for a judge should be prosecuted for his actions.
I would have the services for my child there. And then we would tear it apart.
Our Representatives in Congress should be made to live among the illegal immigrants that don’t want to assimilate, speak another language, and target them to rob and rape. There are many who are seeking a better life, but there is a legal way to become a citizen in this country and they should follow that path.
Seriously, who is this Dog and Pony Show for?
American overwhelmingly want these animals deported.
Republicans are wasting their time trying to convince their donors, i.e., the people who really matter to politicians, that illegals need to be deported, so they need to make a decision:
Remain a Republican and be voted out of office, or switch parties and be voted out of office.
Either way, this is a waste of time and preaching to the choir.
Trump has said it a hundred times. We want them to come in but they’ve gotta do it LEGALLY
A corrupted person posing as clergy.

That’s why Trump and Cruz are winning and Kasich is losing. And Jeb and Rubio are out.
But it’s scary anyone would vote for a politician that is pro-amnesty. A lot of people are willing to give our country away...
Large amounts of our tax dollars are being paid to organizations to house and care for these “kids”. Unfortunately this involves a number of organized religions.
‘44 is clearly on the side of whomever is against us.
None of the liberals realize what the real world will look like in 10-20 years of their open border policies. I am afraid by the time they finally realize what they have done it will be too late. Although it is kind of fun to watch Latinos take over poor communities and push out white or black liberal politicians for Latino politicians. They may get their voters now but they will regret it later....
Exactly, it's a big business funded by taxpayers and this (more than likely) phony Bishop is on the receiving end along with many, many others.
Our Republican congressman, Kevin Mccarthy, lives across town from the mess he helped create.
Our whole East side is gone to the Mexicans as well as every small town surrounding us.
