Meet the Minnesotans killed by illegal immigrants that Walz, Dems never held news conferences or vigils for
Fox News ^ | January 14, 2026 2:05pm EST | Andrew Mark Miller

As Minnesota’s Democratic officials hold news conferences, attend vigils and publicly lash out against the Trump administration over the shooting death of Renee Good, a Fox News Digital review found a much different response from those politicians when Minnesotans were killed or seriously harmed by illegal immigrants. […]

In August 2024, Minnesota mom Victoria Eileen Harwell was killed in a car accident after being struck by an intoxicated Ecuadoran national in north Minneapolis without a press conference or public statement from the mayor or governor.

ICE arrested the man, German Llangari Inga, in May 2024 after they say Hennepin County refused to honor a detainer and released him twice.

Hallie Helgeson, 18, born in St. Paul and raised in Montevideo, MN, was killed last year along with her 19-year-old boyfriend, Brady Heiling, while traveling in Wisconsin when they were struck head on by a drunk driver traveling the wrong way on the highway. The driver, according to DHS, was an intoxicated Honduran national in the country illegally. […]

In 2021, 55-year-old America Mafalda Thayer was brutally murdered and beheaded by her boyfriend, a Cuban national named Alexis Saborit-Viltres, after telling him she wanted to end their relationship. […]

In addition to the high-profile deaths caused by illegal immigrants, other Minnesotans have been seriously harmed with little if any response from Democrat leaders, including a St. Paul landlord who was brutally raped by Mexican national Rolando Lopez-Meneses in 2021 after she refused to let his girlfriend move in with her, TwinCities.com reported. […]

(Jacob) Frey was asked about Harwell in an interview with “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday and responded by reiterating his belief that ICE is overstepping its bounds in the city without specifically mentioning Harwell. …

The death not in this list is the Somali LEO who shot a woman.

In 2017, Somali-American police officer Mohamed Noor shot and killed Justine Damond, an unarmed Australian woman, after she called 911 to report a possible assault. Noor was later convicted of third-degree murder and manslaughter, but his murder conviction was overturned in 2021, leading to his release from prison in 2022.

Presumably Noor was legal?

Of course, his status ought to be challenged as should the status of any remaining ancestral family members, and then he can be on the list of illegal aliens in earnest.

Freaking ironic, isn’t it? Yet they still refuse to leave or even pause fidelity to their far-left cult.

The death not in this list is the Somali LEO who shot a woman.

On July 15, 2017, Justine Damond, a 40 year old white female was shot and killed by Mohamed Noor, a Somalian Minneapolis policeman.
The killing occurred after Diamond had called 911 to report the possible rape of a woman in an alley behind her house.

Moor was riding in the passenger seat of the police vehicle responding to the call.
As Justine Diamond approached the vehicle he rolled down the window and fatally shot her for no apparent reason.

In April 2019, Noor was tried before a jury on charges of second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter.
Noor claimed self defense. The jury convicted Noor of third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, but he was acquitted on the
charge of intentional second degree murder. In June 2019, Noor was sentenced to 12.5 years in prison.

Noor's conviction on third-degree murder was overturned by the Minnesota Supreme Court on September 15, 2021. In October 2021 Noor's
sentence was revised to 4 years 9 months in prison, with credit for time served.
Noor was released from custody on June 27, 2022, and was ordered to remain on supervised release until January 24, 2024.

Damond's family brought a $50 million dollar civil lawsuit against the City of Minneapolis for violation of Damond's civil rights.
The city settled for $20 million dollars in 2019.

The killing of Justine Damond by Noor occurred just weeks after a high-profile manslaughter trial acquittal in the 2016 police killing of
Philando Castile, also in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.
On July 16, 2016 Castile was shot and killed by police officer Jeronimo Yanez of the St. Anthony police department.
St. Anthony is a village located in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.
The shooting of Castile exacerbated existing tensions, attracted national and international press, and led to
widespread street protests.

I am in an argument with a liberal, and I’m trying to find information on the number of people killed by illegals in Minnesota. This article, and any other I could locate via Google search, produces very few, except for the mention of Victoria Harwell. Does anyone have any more sources?

You could probably do the same thing with Oregon, as I watched a day or two ago on the Jesse Watters program on Fox news conference footage of the Portland police chief crying over the ICE shootings of two men (who turned out to be members of the Tren de Aragua gang in Venezuela and had criminal histories in the U.S.).

Liberals are the most disingenuous demographic extant. They care nothing about mankind and even less about the environment. They only care about belonging to their cult.

The 10s of thousands of innocent people murdered and raped by filthy crimigrants? It's the price we have to pay to advance the cause.

I remember that lady who called police for help.
The police sent a somali officer, who came over and shot her dead.
Story was buried by the powers that be, and the somlia officer suffered skated

Well, he skated over a pothole but ultimately, he was handsomely rewarded for killing the filthy infidel woman by court awarded 20 million$ to his family.
