Police: Accused murderer in U.S. illegally (left knife in victim's chest)
The Daily Item ^ | 6/15/2005 | G. Wayne Laepple

MILTON — Fredil Omar Rodriquez-Fuentes is an illegal alien with an outstanding deportation order against him, Milton police learned Tuesday.

Mr. Fuentes, 23, is currently in Northumberland County Prison, awaiting a preliminary hearing on charges that he stabbed Carly S. Snyder, 20, to death early Friday.

Det. Ken Royer of the Milton police said the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, formerly the Immigration and Naturalization Services, told him that Mr. Fuentes is a Honduran citizen and is in this country illegally.

"Mr. Fuentes is officially awaiting deportation," Mr. Royer said.

Mr. Fuentes was deported in 2000 after he was picked up in Brownsville, Tex., Mr. Royer said he was told, and he returned to this country a second time.

"He was ordered deported again, and he skipped his hearing," Mr. Royer said.

As far as Milton police have been able to determine, Mr. Fuentes has no criminal record in the United States. However, Todd Ulrich — another Milton officer working with Mr. Royer — said Mr. Fuentes’ fingerprint record has not yet been returned by the FBI.

Mr. Fuentes was married to a Milton woman, Bobbi Rodriguez, about four years ago, police said, but that marriage does not alter his status as an illegal alien.

"The (former) INS is not responsive," Mr. Royer said. "In a criminal case, they will not do anything until after he has been tried, convicted and served his sentence. Then they will be waiting at the prison door."

"It’s sad that it takes a tragedy like this to get action," Mr. Ulrich said. "If they had deported him, she might still be alive."

Mr. Royer and Mr. Ulrich said they have continued to interview people who knew the victim, Ms. Snyder, and those who know Mr. Fuentes.

"We’ve done 20-plus interviews so far," Mr. Ulrich said, "and we have a dozen or more yet to do."

"Everyone we interview turns up three or four more people we need to interview," Mr. Royer said.

Both officers commented that everyone they’ve interviewed has been cooperative. They have conducted a number of interviews with Latino neighbors of Mr. Fuentes through an interpreter, as well as interviews with others in the neighborhood and friends and acquaintances of Ms. Snyder.

Police would not offer a possible motive for the crime, noting that laboratory results would confirm the motive.

"We’ve determined that the core of Mr. Fuentes’ story is true," he continued. "It’s the stuff on the edges that we have to try to piece together."

Mr. Royer and Mr. Ulrich debunked several rumors circulating in the community concerning the case.

They said they have been unable to establish any link between the victim and her killer. They also said no drugs were involved and there is no evidence that Mr. Fuentes was stalking Ms. Snyder. The officers confirmed that Ms. Snyder had sustained numerous stab wounds, but they said a rumor that she had been stabbed more than 100 times was false.

"We’ve been in daily contact with the family," Mr. Royer said. "We’re keeping them informed of everything we learn."

Mr. Fuentes is scheduled for a bail hearing at 1:15 p.m. today before Judge Robert Sacavage in the Northumberland County courthouse.

His preliminary hearing is set for 9 a.m. Thursday before District Judge William F. Kear. That hearing was moved from Mr. Kear’s Front Street office to the borough building to accommodate the spectators anticipated and to provide better security, according to Mr. Royer.

Ms. Snyder’s funeral is set for 5 p.m. today at the Shaw Funeral Home, with visitation from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Just another by-product of Bush and Company's utter failure on our borders. More American blood on their hands, and the list just keeps growing.2006 will be an eye opener for the pro-illegal traitors.

I can't think of a better explaination of the failue of our border security. Maybe there is no interest in securing our borders.

"Mr. Ulrich said. "If they had deported him, she might still be alive."

This is such incredible bs. THEY DID DEPORT HIM! But since we have NO BORDER SECURITY he came on back in. Then, they tried to DEPORT HIM AGAIN! But, because we have NO BORDER SECURITY, he did no deign to abide by OUR LAWS WHICH WE CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO ENFORCE, and so he just stayed. AND KILLED SOMEBODY!

I guess Bush is also responsible for this ex-con.

The ex-con father of a little girl who was beaten and stabbed to death with her best friend on Mother's Day is under arrest and will be charged with first-degree murder.

Jerry Hobbs (search), who has an extensive criminal history and was released from a Texas jail just last month, stabbed his daughter, 8-year-old Laura Hobbs (search), and her 9-year-old schoolmate, Krystal Tobias (search), repeatedly in the neck, Illinois state attorney Mike Waller said Tuesday.

The girls' bodies were found Monday morning in a park where they had been riding their bicycles.

"We are filing two counts of first-degree murder against Jerry Branton Hobbs III of Zion," Waller said at a late-afternoon press conference.

Hobbs was due in court for a bond hearing Wednesday morning. If convicted, he would be eligible for the death penalty.

I ain't sticking up for either of the guys guy and hope they get the book slammed at them, but maybe one day you will realize that evil knows no ethnicities, and use cases like these to promote a cynical political point.

The obvious answer here is not to deport illegal immigrants immediately. Send them to a detention center for five years, and then deport them. If they enter the country illegally a second time, then send them back to the same detention center for the rest of their lives.

Oh, and don't file charges against illegal aliens in criminal court, either. Illegal aliens who commit crimes in this country are not criminals -- they are invaders. They should be held at Gitmo as enemy combatants, and if their home countries raise a stink about it they can deal with them through the proper channels.

But he was deported in 2000.....and managed to re-enter the U.S. and get as far as PA? Who employed this criminal if he was employed at all......will he just sit while awaiting trial or be put to work earning his worthless keep?

Curious what part of "Illegal-Alien" did you miss? If the traitorist pro-illegal politicians and their supporters started enforcing the laws instead of turning a blind eye, the illegal-alien in question would in all probability not have been here in the first place. Pro-illegal politicians and their supporters are traitors to America and Americans.

The following is a very small list of the crimes illegals have commited.

I thoroughly despise people who come to these threads and take up for Bush's amnesty or Illegal-Aliens. To me they are just as guilty as the murderous Illegals who rape and kill children. And your idiotic statement comparing a crime some evil SOB commited that happens to be an American vs the same being done by an illegal is nothing more then an attempt to bolster your pro-amnesty/illegal position.

At least we have a police force that actively goes after our home grown criminals which is more then I can say for most politicians, including Bush.

Illegal Alien sniper kills 10 people in the DC/Virginia/MD area

It's stuff like that makes you lose credibility. One half of that murderous team was a native born American, john muhammmed, but you left that out.

Whew you are an angry person, saying that someones political position is akin to a capital crime is something charlie rangel, howard dean, or nancy pelosi would say.
