The criminal illegal alien trash who murdered an innocent American woman yesterday in Grapevine, Texas. This illegal alien Venezuelan struck the young American woman (who was on a kayak) with a jet ski and fled the scene. Here she is being taken in to hiding by other Venezuelans. They should all be charged but she should face the death penalty no questions asked. Eye for an eye. I have zero sympathy for these scumbag aliens.
