One of two men charged in connection with last month's home invasion, rape and fatal bludgeoning of a 64-year-old California woman was in the U.S. illegally and on probation.

Victor Aureliano Martinez Ramirez, 29, who is charged along with Jose Fernando Villagomez, 20, in the July attack in Santa Maria, Calif., was on probation for committing battery against an unidentified woman on May 22, 2014, while in possession of methamphetamine.

He was charged twice this year for violating probation, once for possessing a concealed knife and the other for drugs, but a Santa Barbara judge allowed him to enter a substance abuse center in Santa Maria in lieu of jail.

According to County Jail officials, Immigration and Customs Enforcement declined to issue an immigration detainer that would have required local authorities to hold him for deportation.

Police say Marilyn Pharis was beaten with a hammer and sexually assaulted in the morning attack, and died.

Villagomez was booked Tuesday into Santa Barbara County Jail on suspicion of sexual assault and attempted murder. He was already behind bars after a July 28 arrest over a probation violation.

In May, Villagomez allegedly committed battery against Miguel Angel Romero and was found in possession of methamphetamine. He was sentenced to three years of supervised probation June 17 and was also allowed to enter a drug treatment center in Santa Maria.

Each official responsible for the release of this animal needs to be held accountable before a legal tribunal of one form or another.

Martinez has been identified as an undocumented, illegal immigrant who was arrested in 2014 for felony sexual assault but was convicted of misdemeanor battery and placed on probation, according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department.

The Sheriff's Department says Martinez was also arrested last month before the alleged attack on Marilyn Pharis on concealed weapon and drug-related charges, he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and was released from custody on July 20.

Insane.

Accessories. They need to be prosecuted as accessories.

Would have been nice if Trump had mentioned this last night..then I would have turned to Jeb Bush and asked “Tell me Jeb, what this man did, was that an act of love in your opinion?”

Thanks to Trump, last night all the candidates agreed on one thing: the need for border security. Even Heb.
The Democrats disagree. This is the issue for the Republicans because the public agrees with Trump.

H/T to our FRiend dragnet2 for the post, and to Kartographer for the heads-up.

Incidents such as this, heinous in the extreme, are laid squarely at the feet of those of both sides of the Uniparty who are granting amnesty and access to the invasion of our country.

And the Media will be complicit in keeping this out of the national conversation...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
