Another illegal alien gang member doing the killing…
…Americans didn’t do:
An alleged gang member accused of killing a 17-year-old high school student just one day after being released from jail has been living in the country illegally, possibly for more than a decade, federal immigration authorities said Saturday.
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has filed paperwork naming 19-year-old Pedro Espinoza, the suspect in the March 2 killing of Los Angeles High School football star Jamiel Shaw Jr., as a potential candidate for deportation.
Virginia Kice, a spokeswoman for the immigration agency, said an immigration hold was issued for Espinoza on March 13, nearly a week after he was arrested in connection with Shaw’s death.
No such hold was placed on Espinoza on March 1, the day he was released from a Los Angeles County jail after serving roughly four months for exhibiting a firearm and resisting arrest, said Sheriff’s Department spokesman Steve Whitmore.
“We are going to follow up to determine whether or not we have had prior interactions with this individual,” Kice said.
The federal immigration agency confirmed the deportation filing on the same day that Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa participated in a ceremony dedicating a memorial in Arlington Heights where Shaw was killed.
A highly regarded running back for his school’s football team, Shaw was named the Southern League’s most valuable player in 2007. He had drawn the interest of recruiters from Stanford and Rutgers universities, his family said.
The killing outraged civic leaders and reignited a citywide debate over the role that race has played in a recent spate of homicides.
Both the immigration agency and the Sheriff’s Department have employees who interview jail inmates about their immigration status. Those interviews can be undermined when inmates give aliases or inaccurate places of birth, authorities said.
After his most recent arrest, Espinoza was “uncooperative,” telling immigration investigators he did not know where he was born or the whereabouts of his family, Kice said.
The next day, investigators found a relative of the suspect who said Espinoza had been smuggled into the United States from Mexico when he was 4, Kice said.
Understatement of the day, via FNC:
Immigration officials told the TV station that Espinoza is an illegal immigrant, but no red flags were raised when he was released from jail March 1. “The system is not 100 percent,” Lori Haley, a spokeswoman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, told the station.
LAPD is still looking for another suspect in the case.
At the risk of, you know, being spat upon, let me link back to these past posts on the targeting of innocent black Americans by illegal alien Hispanic gangs in Los Angeles.
These are the racial crimes the Left doesn’t want to talk about.
Let’s have a conversation about that.
Barack? Hillary? McCain? Anyone?

I’m sure it will get better when our new president is elected……….NOT!!!!!
Prayers are with the Mother who was sent back from Iraq becuse of her son’s murder by this illegal parasite.
I hope she sues the crap out of ALL that are responsible for her son’s senseless murder.
Yes, I recall this story. While his mother is off in Iraq fighting for our freedoms. Her son is back in the US, on the streets of California being murdered for the color of his skin.
I believe the gang members drove up to him and asked “what set he was from” when Shaw said he wasn’t apart of any gang, they opened fire. It truly didn’t matter what his response would have been.
What difference does it make? The boy is dead now. Perhaps, if more were done beforehand, this senseless murder could have been averted.
I wonder if John McCain made the call to the mother in Iraq that her son was killed by an illegal alien, seeing as how he would NOT make the call to a soldier informing them that a relative might be deported for being an illegal alien.
I sent an e-mail to McCain’s campaign headquarters offering to tell the soldier his illegal alien relative had been deported, so John wouldn’t need to. No reply yet.
Within 30 minutes of detaining an Iraqi, I can tell you his entire history with coalition forces, his arrrest records (if any) and get an iris scan, name, or fingerprint match from a hand-held machine. These clowns at the LAPD can’t tell if they have ever had any dealings with this punk? Give me a break.
How about he gets named as a potential candidate for the death penalty …
I can’t wait for Juan McCain’s visit to my backyard, Meridian Ms, on the 31st of this month.
Don’t know what I am going to say, scream, yell, demand, or ask yet.
ArmoredCav,
They use every excuse in the book to try to account for their ineptness and the fact that they truly do not wish to address the problem with illegal aliens. If you guys elected to do the same thing with your mission, there really wouldn’t be any point to you all being over there. However, since you take your mission seriously and lives hang in the balance you do what you have to do. The LAPD thinks they can afford to just offer up platitudes.
Universal amnesty’s ugly stepchild…the murdering thugs who our inept bureaucracy uses to justify its existence.
30, we have to take it seriously! I have 18-20 year old scouts that have to put together enough evidence from what is truly a crime scene that it will get through the Iraqi Criminal Court. And they do it with training that is not always appropriate. But when we roll into town we come to clean up.
rooster
I have been suggesting the following chant at McCain speeches in honor of his “friend” Juan Hernandez, who believes in “Mexico first” and that we are a “region” in the southwest not 2 countries …
Juan must go!
Juan must go!
If you want my vote,
Juan must go!
ArmoredCav,
Stay safe!
Unfortunately, the bureaucrats who bungled this case are taking their example from the top. I have mostly been a supporter of Mr. Bush, but I can’t for the life of me figure out why he is so soft on immigration.
Potential candidate for deportation? Is that as “strong” as you can make your language in dealing with this murderer?
Note to whoever stated this: You’re fired!
I have heard that killings by illegal aliens happen over twenty times a day - if that’s true, that’s over 7300 unnecessary murders of US citizens a year! In five years of war in Iraq, we just hit four thousand Americans killed! How many Americans have to be murdered before the government takes action?
Every time one of these killings by an illegal alien happens, we should send copies of the newspaper article(s) to the President, Vice President, cabinet members and members of our “esteemed” Congress.

If the government gets bombarded enough - like 7300 times a year x however many people send these stories in to them, it MIGHT make them sit up and take some notice. I say MIGHT advisedly, because you know as well as I do just how inert and inept our government is.
Well both political parties have deserted the citizens of this country and have encouraged this type of action by illegals, by call opponents zenophobes and racists. It is time to take our country back.
The reports about 4000 deaths in Iraq disgust me. Any number is bad, but the sheer numbers killed by illegals is beyond campare to Iraq.
cpodug,
You had my exact thoughts. When will the media or talk radio compare the deaths, murders from illegals as compared to Iraq and Afghanistan and pound it into everyones heads.
Here’s another murder of a black kid by a Latino gang member. I would bet he’s illegal.
Bus Shooting Suspect Arrested
cpodug,
I sent an email to the Pres and VP. I politely introduced them to Jamiel Shaw Jr along with his murderer.
We see what kind of response, if any, I receive.
Rooster, you need some historical perspective. While any loss of a soldier is tragic, our troops have done an outstanding job with very few personnel lost. Take a look at past wars and occupations before calling this tragic. Our troops freed a nation from the tyrany of a family of thugs who brutally raped, tortured and murdered their own people. I say “We are the United States of America. When we get the chance to stomp an evil tyrant, free a nation, and scare the hell out our enemies, we should take it.”
at least FOUR individuals killed in the past 2 weeks by illegals within a 10 mile radius.
We are not heavily populated either…………
Armed and Dangerous …..I will soon be.
If a 19-year-old has been living here since he was four, it handicaps what we can do if he is convicted of a crime.
I accept that illegal aliens are inevitable. The trick is to minimize their presence. Normally, I support deporting illegal aliens who are convicted of a felony. But this person has spent more time in America than in Mexico. He’s not guilty of a crime by being here. He was brought in by his family. So deporting him to a land he didn’t know with no family isn’t a feasible solution.
Obviously allowing him to stay wasn’t a feasible solution either.
It’s a horrible situation, but I wouldn’t blame “catch and release.” I would blame the culture of gang warfare and the glorification of violence. Of course, there are no easy answers there either.
Minimize their presence?
Ok. How about Ready, Aim, FIRE.
with Antonio Villaraigosa there, I DOUBT IT!
Antonio Villaraigosa again, this guy their mayor, is the top problem for us in LA. He probably belongs to MeCHa and Reconquista as well as what we know…his lifetime membership in LaRaza.
That is nonsense. He must pay for his crime in jail, and in this case the death penalty. You can’t let people come in the country, kill somebody and then just deport them. What kind of nonsense is that?
a potential candidate for deportation
Well come on down! You’re the next contestant on ShhhAmnesty for All!
Where’s Geraldo when we need him?
It handicaps nothing. He was not born here. He is not a citizen. It makes no difference if he was here a day or 25 years, he was illegal the moment he snuck across the border.
Spitting mad, I’m sure!
Rusty, whatever hardships come from deporting this guy come from his parents, who also should be deported. They are responsible for bringing him here illegally, not our government.
Our government is responsible for the incompetence which allowed them to stay here for so long.
I meant after they serve their time.
Bill Simmons (one of the best young sports writers around) of espn.com has a must read piece on this story available on his “Sports Guy” (page 2 stuff) page. Here’s the link:
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/080312
I heard some guy on the radio Saturday morning that someone sent him an email with the pictures of the three current presidential candidates on it with the names: Larry, Curly and Moe above the pics. I think that’s an insult to the Three Stooges but you get the point.
Nothing is going to be done about this problem. Everyday innocent lives are taken by those who are not here legally. I have given up that anything will ever be done.
Today in MD they’re protesting at the State House to give the illegals in state tuition to the state university system. They’ll get it, they got the liberals out there with them.
Here’s a short list of sanctuary cities as of Aug 14, 2006:
Anchorage, Alaska
Fairbanks, Alaska
Chandler, Arizona
Fresno, California
Los Angeles, California
San Diego, California
San Francisco, California
Sonoma County, California
Evanston, Illinois
Cicero, Illinois
Cambridge, Massachusetts
Orleans, Massachusetts
Portland, Maine
Baltimore, Maryland
Takoma Park, Maryland
Ann Arbor, Michigan
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Durham, North Carolina
Albuquerque, New Mexico

Rio Arriba County, New Mexico
Sante Fe, New Mexico
New York, New York
Ashland, Oregon
Gaston, Oregon
Marion County, Oregon
Austin, Texas
Houston, Texas
Katy, Texas
Seattle, Washington
Madison, Wisconsin.
Hard to prevent catch and release in a sanctuary city plus the mayor of L.A. is closer to the LaRaza set than the Nation of Laws.
Should not Sharpton be called in for family relief fund raising and perhaps some Subculture street justice.
Apparently local police all over the country have been instructed to go after and prosecute only white(less chance of being illegal) law breakers. Mindless left wing local government officials are going to pay for this in the end…it’s inevitable. Honest, hard working, armed CITIZENS won’t take this bull$hi!! forever…not to mention we have most of the 250,000,000 guns in the country.
Orleans, MA!? Color me surprised. Orleans is lily white (97.57%!) and the Outer Cape (save for Provincetown) is one of the more conservative parts of Eastern Massachusetts.
I wonder what the circumstances were that led to them becoming a sanctuary city.
My Guess? Someones maid or lawnboy got arrested…
You missed Denver CO….
Michelle, I posted this story on your site a few times already. I was following it as close as I could, and when I turn around you find out that the gang banger is an illegal invader. I now wonder if the gang bangers that shot the 6 year old black boy shortly after this poor story, if they were illegal as well? $1 to donuts they are. If not they are anchor babies.
(off topic, glad I got my smog check for my car in order to calm down the envirowackos, as it will help combat all the global warming the burning building in Downtown L.A. is doing.)
Just got a new .44 magnum (Smith and Wesson), it’s a beauty!
After his trip to the gas chamber right?
The ethnic cleansing of blacks by illegal aliens/children of illegal aliens in L.A. and other cities continues while America’s “black leaders” seek new and better ways to blame whitey for everything and squeeze out more entitlements.
My only question is…..WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG FOR THEM TO TELL US THAT THE MURDERER WAS NOT A LEGAL RESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES???
I first posted on this two weeks ago and have been searching the news every day since for any news on his immigration status.
Can’t say I’m too surprised.
But as Chief Bratton said, “this has nothing to do with race”.
Yeah, right…
They had him in jail for 4 months and they didn’t bother to check his immigration status? It is California, so I kind of expect this behavior, but not checking for any priors is downright criminal. Don’t law enforcement personnel swear an oath to protect the public? Those involved should be prosecuted for violating their oath.
I was scroling down to post this, but saw that “dakine” already did so. I will leave it here again in case you missed it. Bill Simmons did a piece on this kid over a week ago:
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/080312
(He leans left politically, and that sometimes shines through, but this piece is about the boy)

Having spent one week per year in Orleans during my youth, I can report that it is home to the Cape Cod Baseball League (Triple A?). Other than that, I agree that it is “97.6%” white.
Go to these sites to get really mad.

Once the New Messiah, the Beacon of Change is finally elected President. then all these typicalwhites and typical bMexicans will finally all get along. Once people see Obama for the Messiah, the holy man that he is, the uniter, not the divider, the one true person sent from on high to bring all races together…
I just can’t do it. For goodness sake I threw up in my mouth a little bit typing that much. How can people honestly believe that crap? Seriously…are people in this country just that stupid?
And they have the gaul to mock those in the Mid-West and South as un-educated and moronic. Too funny.
And here we have illegals attacking a Deputy.
Deputies are still looking for seven other men involved in the attack. Four of the five men they’ve caught are going to be deported since they were in the country illegally.
The CCBL is fantastic. But it’s independent, not AAA.
Unfortunately, Major League Baseball is turning the screws and forcing CCBL teams to pay fees for the teams that have MLB names (like my hometown Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox and the Orleans Cardinals). This despite the fact that the MLB and the CCBL always had a friendly relationship and MLB had previously donated its logos and trademarks for use.
The CCBL operates on a very small budget and uses local suppliers at discounted prices to get by. MLB is trying to stop that. Here’s a Cape Cod Times blog post about it.
Sorry for the threadjack but Brian brought up something near and dear to my heart. Brian, next time you’re on Cape, make sure to support the CCBL!
cpodug. I just learned that congressmen, etc in DC have not received mail in quite a few years since the anthrax scare. I heard that all mail was simply destroyed and the only way to communicate was email or FAX. FAX being the preferred way.
These people may never learn, but if they don’t they are killing themselves.
You bunch of Nationalists. Don’t you folks know in order to have a New World Order culture must be destroyed? How do we do that?
Illegal alien invasion, more than one laungage, false religions, Christianity as hate speech, bail out corporations because Oil ticks might sell T-bills and sink the dollar, marriage is destroyed, teach your children to be gay…
So deporting him to a land he didn’t know with no family isn’t a feasible solution.
Yeah, the Mexican government will just hand him a pamphlet telling him how to sneak back here.
Does CA still segregate black and Hispanic prisoners to keep them from killing each other? Maybe there could be a screw-up in the paperwork.
How does Mexico handle their gang problems? Do they even have gangs out side the drug cartels? Mexico is fortunate that they don’t have to follow PC rules when administering justice. I agree with Rusty that the problem is these gangs and why do these kids want to get in on such a losing business. I guess they have so much peer pressure and their parents don’t care or are unable to help them. Sometimes here the gang members parents are into gangs too.
I hate to say this but I hope that the family gets some good legal representation and sues the City of LA for Special Order 40, LA County for not investigating the shooters legal status, and the state of CA and US Government for not properly enforcing Federal Laws to keep turds like this out of our country.
Bottom line here is that if they had an immigration hold on this piece of crap he would never have been released the day before and the victim would still be alive.
If I were the parents, I would have been furious that the criminal enabling Mayor of LA, Tony Villar, dared to show up at my son’s funeral…the boys blood is plainly visible on Mayor Villars hands with his adamant support of Special Order 40.
It’s amazing to me how selective the media can be…so much made of the 5 year anniversary of the Iraq invasion and the US death toll at 4,000, however it’s never put in context…Since 2001, there have been over 8,000 homicides in LA County. Since the beginning of the Iraq invasion there have been over 5,500.
It would seem that it is safer to be in the Armed Forces serving in Iraq and Afghanistan then living in LA County. Especially if you’re a prep star living in central LA.
