A day laborer from Annandale has been charged with murder in the stabbing death of a Fairfax County contractor who had hired him to work in a Chevy Chase home, police said yesterday.
The slaying occurred after the day laborer stole stereo equipment and jewelry from the house where they were working, court records say.
The issue of day laborers gathering informally to be hired by contractors has been contentious recently, particularly in Herndon, where the town government is trying to accommodate workers with a gathering place away from a 7-Eleven on Herndon's main street. Police said yesterday that other day laborers were crucial in helping police make an arrest in the slaying.
"I know there's been a lot of discussion about day laborers," said Lt. Bruce Guth, a Fairfax homicide division supervisor. "But the people down there were more than helpful and willing to do what they could do."
The smoldering body of Hak Bong Kim, 55, was discovered Aug. 15 in the woods near St. Michael's Catholic Church on Ravensworth Road in Annandale. The body was so badly burned that police initially could not tell whether it was that of a man or a woman. Kim's family had reported him missing the night before, so detectives were quickly able to obtain dental records and identify Kim.

Oh, Darn!
This contractor should not be dead. Many people should not be dead. Many women should not have been raped. Many children should not have been molested. Many parents, spouses and children should not have to live their lives absent the presense of another dear family member.
I do not know the precise figures of all the crimes committed by illegal immigrants. Nobody does. What we do know is that a vast group of U.S. citizens and their families have been devistated when they shouldn't have been.
If our borders were enforced, many people would be alive today who aren't. Many women would not have been raped. Many kids wouldn't have to live their whole lives with the physical and mental scars due to abuse.
Is it really too much to ask, to demand that these crimes cease today? Is it really too much to ask that we seal our borders and expel those who do not belong here.
If it is, then it's too much to ask that the U.S. citizen not be exposed to this. So much for life, liberty and the persuit of happiness, well at least as it applies to the lowly expendable U.S. Citizen, no better or worse than cattle led to the slaughter. /quote
Pardon my insensitivity, but Eff the contractor. Personally, I think he got what he deserved. He was flouting the law by working this scum under the table so he could avoid paying taxes and benefits to legal worker.
I doubt they are in the habit of sending messages through you.
but bayourod just told me that illegal immigrants bring only prosperity wherever they go!
Could the fact that there is no screening of these illegal immigrants lead to the fact that many criminal acts have been committed by them?
But you saw them looting during the Los Angeles riots because they live there. And they don't live in New Orleans. Tons of illegal aliens were arrested during and after the LA riots
Hak Bong Kim? I wonder if he was here illegally also. Illegal aliens hiring illegal aliens. This crap is out of control.
Absolutely correct! Legal immigrants are screened up the wazoo.
That's why historically we were a nation of legal immigrants. Not of people who scammed their way in here and then living a life of scam IDs, scam driver's licenses and other scams of welfare and automobile insurance
My guess- he is a legal immigrant. Some of biggest employers of illegals are legal immigrants from the same ethnic group. This is the exception where ol' Hak Bong is Asian of some kind
Bayounimrod and Dame.......
I'm sure Bayourod is in his home in Houston opening it and his heart up, getting it and all his rentals ready for the refugees coming in from New Orleans......compassionate republican that he is.
It would be nice if one time one of them could show some compassion for the victims of their precious illegal "immigrants".
While I understand why you've made that comment, I don't personally want the illegal or anyone else to be hurt. I just want our borders to be reinstated, and our citizens to be safe.
Thanhks for the comment.
Yes, that would be nice.
But I'm certain they send messages to you.
Your ignorance is breathtaking.
Coming from you-
yawn
