Illegal alien allegedly beats man to death in Virginia after Fairfax County sheriff apparently ignores multiple ICE detainers



A Honduran national with multiple immigration detainers against him and at least one assault and battery conviction to his name allegedly beat a man to death in Virginia earlier this month.

On July 20, a resident taking a stroll down a path in a wooded area near the 9500 block of Route 29 in Oakton, Virginia, spotted "a male lying unresponsive," the Fairfax County Police Department said. The victim — later identified as 47-year-old Nicacio Hernandez Gonzalez of Fairfax — had "obvious" signs of "trauma" on his body and was soon pronounced dead, the statement added.

In response to the uproar about the immigration detainers issued against FCADC's 'undocumented' inmates, such as Guzman-Videl ... Fairfax County Sheriff Stacey Kincaid wrote a letter insisting that without a judicial warrant, detainers are just 'an informal request.'

By Wednesday, three suspects had been arrested in connection with Gonzalez's death: 27-year-old Maudin Anibal Guzman-Videz, 45-year-old Wis Alonso Sorto-Portillo, and 20-year-old Wilmer Adli Guzman, who was arrested in Washington, D.C., and awaits extradition to Fairfax County. All three have been charged with malicious wounding by mob.

None of the suspects has a fixed address in the U.S., and at least one of them — Guzman-Videz — apparently has no legal right to be here in the first place.

Guzman-Videz, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, has a long history with local and federal law enforcement agencies. In November 2018, he was arrested by U.S. Border Patrol after he entered the U.S. illegally near Hidalgo, Texas. A year later, a judge ordered him deported.

Whether Guzman-Videz was ever deported is unclear, but between October 27, 2022, and June 28, 2023, ICE reportedly filed multiple immigration detainers against him with the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center — but ICE said the Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office refused to honor the detainers, WJLA-TV reported.

At least one of those detainers was in connection with a particularly brutal incident in March 2023 when Guzman-Videz reportedly broke into a building and severely beat a woman. That June, he was convicted of burglary and assault and battery and sentenced to 11 months behind bars plus a 364-day suspended sentence.

On June 17, 2024, his 11-month sentence was up, and Guzman-Videz walked out of jail. Nicacio Hernandez Gonzalez was dead about a month later.

According to WJLA, 725 "undocumented individuals" have been incarcerated at the county's adult detention center in the last 12 months. Of those 725, just three have been transferred to ICE's custody.

In response to the uproar about the immigration detainers issued against "undocumented" inmates at the county jail who have been accused of heinous violent and/or sex-related crimes, Fairfax County Sheriff Stacey Kincaid wrote a letter insisting that without a judicial warrant, detainers are just "an informal request."

"ICE knows that should they wish to take one of these offenders into custody, all that is required on their part is a judicial warrant authorizing arrest," her letter continued. "ICE is notified every time an undocumented immigrant is taken into our custody. Yet, time and again, they make no effort to secure a warrant that would give judicial authority to detain."

Kincaid added, "This inaction is a failure of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, not of the Sheriff’s Office."

The sheriff and other local elected officials reportedly have attempted to implement sanctuary policies in Fairfax County. According to her campaign website, Kincaid also has received endorsements from several high-profile Virginia Democrats, including former Gov. Terry McAuliffe, former U.S. Rep. Jim Moran, and current U.S. Rep. Gerry Connolly.

Mike Chapman, the sheriff of nearby Loudon County, takes a decidedly different view of immigration detainers, and he said he honors them even without a judicial warrant as an important component of keeping his community safe.

"We need to make sure that we're not keeping these people in our community that can do further harm," Chapman told WJLA. "It makes no sense to me to allow these people to stay in the area and then commit another crime if we know for a fact that they're violent and that they're here illegally."

Illegal alien twice cut loose from sanctuary county jail now accused of killing a 2-year-old Maryland boy



An illegal alien from El Salvador has been arrested and charged with murder in connection to the Feb. 8 slaying of a 2-year-old Maryland boy, Jeremy Poou-Caceres, and the grievous wounding of the boy's mother.

Prior to allegedly killing the child, Salvadoran national Nilson Granados-Trejo was twice arrested and twice freed in a nearby sanctuary county despite an outstanding removal order and detainer requests from immigration officials.

Illegally imported turf wars

According to the Prince George's County Police Department, a detective working in the area of the 1400 block of Kanawha Street in Langley Park heard gunfire and attempted to locate the source. What the detective ultimately found was a dying toddler beside his wounded mother.

Jeremy Poou-Caceres was taken to a hospital, where he died shortly thereafter. His 17-year-old mother, apparently struck in the leg, survived the attack and was released from the hospital days later.

Police indicated that the mother and child were not the intended targets. A witness reportedly saw two of the suspected shooters take shots at another group of thugs during a dispute over drug territory, striking Jeremy and his mother.

The boy's mother, whose identity has been concealed in some reports because she is a teen victim and a witness, claimed she was pushing her son in a stroller down Kanawha street when two groups of thugs began shooting, reported WRC-TV.

"I grabbed my son and tried to save my son. That was all I could think about," said the bereaved mother.

The suspects

The PGPD initially identified four suspects including a 15-year-old male from Takoma Park and a 16-year-old male from Hyattsville, both of whom have been charged as adults.

Police also arrested Israel Fuentes Jr. and Johnny Alejandro Turcios, 28.

The PGPD later arrested 25-year-old Nilson Granados-Trejo, an illegal alien from El Salvador, on Feb. 23. Like the others, Granados-Trejo has been charged with first- and second-degree murder. Police also charged him with two counts of first-degree assault, second-degree assault, and attempted murder.

Granados-Trejo is being held at the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.

Investigators were able to track down the suspects thanks in part to surveillance video taken at a convenience store in Silver Spring. The video taken around 9:45 p.m. the day before the shooting clearly shows a number of the men who were riding around in the previously stolen Ford Explorer that ultimately served as the shooters' getaway vehicle.

An AK-47-style rifle was reportedly found inside the car after it was ditched by the suspects.

Bloody sanctuary

James Covington, a spokesman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Removal Operations Baltimore, confirmed to WTTG-TV that Nilson Granados-Trejo is in the country illegally and hails from El Salvador.

In November 2022, a Department of Justice immigration judge in Newark, New Jersey, reportedly ordered the the future murder suspect's deportation. It clearly did not take.

Granados-Trejo was arrested on March 21, 2023, and charged with theft by the Montgomery County Police Department.

According to the Center for Immigration Studies, Montgomery County, like Prince George's County, is a sanctuary for illegal aliens. ICE reportedly filed a immigration detainer for Granados-Trejo but indicated that the Montgomery County Detention Center refused to honor the detainer.

Granados-Trejo was cut loose on March 27, 2023.

It was not long until Granados-Trejo found himself once more in MCPD custody. He was arrested on Sept. 26, 2023, for alleged theft, obstruction, and hindering. Once again, ICE reportedly lodged an immigration detainer, and once again the MCDC cut him loose.

Several months after his Oct. 12, 2023, release from the MCDC, Granados-Trejo ended up in PGPD custody for allegedly murdering a child.

Covington indicated ERO Baltimore lodged an immigration detainer with the Prince George's County Detention Center against Granados-Trejo on Feb. 27.

A preventable trend

Multitudes of Americans have been subjected to violence by illegal aliens in recent years. There have been a number of particularly egregious instances in recent days and weeks.

The lifeless and brutalized remains of Laken Hope Riley, a 22-year-old Georgia nursing student, were found at the University of Georgia intramural fields on Thursday. Blaze News previously reported that the young woman's suspected killer is 26-year-old Jose Antonio Ibarra, an illegal alien from Venezuela who stole into the country in September 2022.

Ibarra was eligible for deportation in 2023 after being accused in Queens, New York, of felony child endangerment as well as shoplifting in Georgia, reported the New York Post.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) blasted President Joe Biden in a letter Saturday, stating, "More than nine million illegal immigrants have crossed the border since you took office – with an additional, unknown number of migrants who were not detained and processed – while at least 58 people on the terror watchlist have been encountered between ports of entry this fiscal year alone."

"While the dangers of this crisis have never been theoretical, this week our state witnessed a devastating tragedy," added Kemp.

Authorities in Louisiana announced Tuesday that they had apprehended an illegal alien from Honduras suspected of raping and assaulting a little girl.Angel Matias Castellanos-Orellana was arrested for armed robbery, aggravated battery, first-degree rape, and aggravated assault.

"Illegal immigrants continue to be a challenge to local law enforcement for many reasons," Kenner Police Department Chief Keith Conley underscored in his announcement of the arrest. "We are glad he is off our streets, but will he be back? Will he have a new identity? What other crimes has he committed since he crossed our borders?"
