Federal authorities are warning Missouri officials not to release an illegal immigrant accused of raping and kidnapping a woman in a quiet college town on Easter Sunday — the second violent crime in the state in just weeks involving a suspect in the country unlawfully.

The Department of Homeland Security announced Monday that Cristian Lopez-Gomez, a Honduran national who entered the U.S. illegally in April 2024 and was released into the country under the Biden administration, is now charged in the attack in Kirksville, home to Truman State University.

Authorities say Lopez-Gomez raped the woman and held her against her will during the holiday weekend. He remains behind bars in the Adair County jail, where ICE has lodged a detainer to keep him from being released.

DHS reinforced that message in a social media post, urging Missouri officials not to release Lopez-Gomez and stressing that cooperation with ICE is key to ensuring suspects like him are not "released back into our communities."

Thank you very much and God bless you.

posted this because I hadn't heard of this one. Pathetic when you have to warn some judge not to release this illegal in Missouri.

Showing you're anti-Trump is more important.

Missouri, as a state is pretty much as Republican as you can get. But that said, there are very deep blue parts, usually in urban areas and towns dominated by colleges, as is Kirksville.

Rape and kidnapping are serious crimes and I doubt that Cristian Lopez-Gomez is going to be walking the streets very soon. He should serve serious time and when his sentence is up, he should be deported, but who knows?
