22-YEAR-OLD SON OF KNOXVILLE FIRE CAPTAIN KILLED BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT
The Daily Caller ^ | 01/05/2019 | Scott Morefield

A multi-vehicle crash last week that claimed the life of the son of a Knoxville, Tennessee fire department captain was the result of a “chain reaction” begun by an illegal immigrant driving in the wrong lane, investigators said.

Pierce Kennedy Corcoran, 22, the son of Knoxville Fire Department spokesperson Captain D.J. Corcoran, was driving a Honda Civic south on Knoxville’s Chapman Highway the evening of December 30 when a Chevrolet pickup truck driven by Franco Cambrany Francisco-Eduardo reportedly veered into their lane and struck the vehicle.

...

44-year-old Franco Cambrany Francisco-Eduardo, an illegal immigrant, was arrested and charged with criminally negligent homicide as well as having no driver’s license or proof of financial responsibility, according to the News Sentinel, and was jailed without bond pending ICE action. Tennessee is not a sanctuary state.

...

The death of 22-year-old Pierce Corcoran has brought home to Knoxville the heated national debate over illegal immigration and the need for a border wall.

...

Tim Burchett, a newly-elected GOP representative who represents Tennessee’s 2nd congressional district, which covers Knoxville, called Corcoran’s death “tragic” and “entirely avoidable.”

“Based on the details released at this point, this situation underscores the need to fully enforce our existing immigration laws and strengthen and secure our border,” Burchett told the News Sentinel via email. “The bottom line is if the suspect hadn’t been in the country illegally, Pierce Corcoran would still be alive.”

ICE action? You mean to deport??? NO!! Execute him and then send him home in a casket. We don't want any chance of him coming back.

Remember when liberals claimed that simply giving illegal aliens driver's licenses would make them safer drivers?

Main stream media and press, are so bad, if they cover this at all, might as well report this as white racist drivers getting in the way of a non white, just to make him look bad!

What is the chief’s politics?

Most fire chiefs are more political appointments than ones by merit these days.

Start at the top of the food chain and work our way down. Put the employers in jail. That should start getting peoples attention.

Digital wall via e-verify. Ensure colleges/companies track their visa holders. If colleges don't track them. No more money to such school, etc.

The liberals don’t care how many Americans are killed or injured by illegals as long as they can use it to advance their Hatred of Trump.

How very sad to lose a loved one
to an avoidable circumstance. The
void left in a parent’s heart
never to be filled. Sad also that
those in power to stop this have
hearts of stone. Prayers to the
chief and his family.
