Wilber Alberto Rabanales, who is from Guatemala, has a rap sheet 11 pages long that shows numerous arrests in Los Angeles County for gun charges, burglary, drugs, and grand theft.
Jose Christian Saravia Sanchez, who is from El Salvador, also has a long rap sheet that is six pages. He has also been arrested numerous times in Los Angeles County for kidnapping, concealed firearm, grand theft, drug possession, and burglary tools.
Welcome to the sanctuary state of California
If the police catch criminals the judges let the criminals go free to steal and kill again.
alleged killing ???
Alleged journalism.
How unfortunate for this family, apparently of Mexican heritage, to suffer for this heinous act. The entire Demonrat party is accountable for this.
Karen Bass, incompetent mayor of Los Angeles will make sure the illegal criminals are protected.
Very unfortunate that the “Good Samaritan” was killed, if he’d lived, he would have been tried for murder - with the perps receiving a hefty settlement.
Stay out of cali until a serious adjustment happens. Going there only further supports this uncivil lunacy.
Yikes this was bound to happen. Trump will be ultra-popular when he issues an EO that all catalytic converters must be deeply engraved with serial numbers at the factory

There’s an Army of Thieves Coming for Your Catalytic Converter
One of the largest crime-waves in recent years could cost you thousands.
May 23, 2022
One autocat (or ‘cat,’ to gearheads) can net a thief over $100, while the broker buying the parts could sell each one to a recycler for up to $500.
That’s easy money for thieves: Removing a catalytic converter can take less than a minute, involving little more than a thief slipping under a car and making two cuts with a Sawzall. ...............................
Alleged....
Yep takes a long period of time to get
passed the ALLEDGED part, if ever.
____________Not only are both men illegal aliens, but they also have an extensive criminal background.
Wilber Alberto Rabanales, who is from Guatemala, has a rap sheet 11 pages long_____________
American are so dumb n naive about how gritty and tough life can be in the turd world. For the hardened thieves who scam their way into America. They are like kids in a candy store, that get no punishments for stealing all the candy they can scoop up.

BREAKING: Per multiple law enforcement sources, the two men arrested by Inglewood PD yesterday for allegedly shooting & killing a man who tried to stop them from stealing his neighbor’s catalytic converter are both illegal aliens with extensive criminal histories, w/ each having over a dozen arrests in Los Angeles County in recent years. I’m told ICE detainers on one suspect have been ignored 12 times in recent years.
I’m told Wilber Alberto Rabanales (blue shirt) is a Guatemalan national who has been arrested at least 15 times in Los Angeles County in recent years on predominantly gun, grand theft, burglary, and drug charges. His rap sheet is 11 pages long.
It includes numerous grand theft arrests, mostly for stealing catalytic converters, multiple DUIs, conspiracy, felon in possession of a gun, possession of burglary tools, possession of meth, possession of stolen property, and felony hit and run during police pursuit.
I’m told Jose Christian Saravia Sanchez (flower shirt) is a Salvadoran national who has been arrested at least a dozen times in Los Angeles County in recent years. His rap sheet is 6 pages long. It includes arrests for numerous grand thefts, concealed firearm in car, kidnapping, numerous possession of meth and possession of burglary tools.
Mugshots provided by law enforcement source.
The victim, Juan (Johnny) Sanchez, was killed last Tuesday when he heard a noise outside his home and confronted both suspects as they were trying to steal the catalytic converter from his neighbor’s car. He was shot in the chest, and part of the confrontation was caught on video.
You beat me to it. The misuse of the word ‘alleged’ is a pet peeve of mine as well.
HANG THEM!
Mainstream media leaves off any reference to the two killers being illegal allies
If the police catch criminals the judges let the criminals go free to steal and kill again.

America will never again be a truly civilized country until the criminal justice system is reformed so people charged with murder are SWIFTLY tried and if found guilty sentenced to death and publicly executed within hours of the guilty verdict. Delay for appeal, 10 days. NO EXCEPTIONS!
Folks stealing converters are organized and usually have lookouts who are armed protecting the person who is under the vehicle and vulnerable. Cops should know their mo and be prepared to handle the situation better than unarmed civi,ians
Illegal alien murderers are Amerika’s strength. Doing the job Planned Parenthood failed to do. Killing Americans.
F$## heritage. Once here you are American. There are holidays to lie about how good things were before your father uprooted you and moved here.
And again, a lib judge let hard core criminals back out on the street and now a man is dead. Judges should have to pay for their stupidity.
“”if he’d lived, he would have been tried for murder “”
Did you read the same article that the rest of us did? Did he shoot or kill someone?
