Driver accused of killing WSP trooper in I-5 crash is Mexican citizen 'unlawfully' in US

The man accused of hitting and killing a Washington State Patrol trooper on I-5 in Marysville early Saturday morning is a citizen of Mexico living in the United States "unlawfully," according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The 32-year-old man, with a Lynnwood address, is being held on charges related to vehicular homicide.
He "entered the U.S. at an unknown date and time, without admission or parole by an immigration officer, and was first encountered by (Enforcement and Removal Operations) Seattle Oct. 28, 2013, at the South Correctional Entity, Burien, WA, following his arrest for failure to appear for driving while license suspended," ICE said.
KOMO News is not naming the man because he has not been formally charged for the trooper's death.

In 2010 my buddy’s brother was on his motorcycle, speed limit and all on hwy 99 in Everett when a driver pulled right in front of him. He couldn’t brake in time and hit the side of the vehicle and flew over. He was in a wheel chair for a year and still has complications to this day. The driver was an illegal immigrant with no license

[@baba98052]

Well done Seattle, a sanctuary city. What could go wrong with ignoring emigration laws. Seattle will not wake up until it becomes more unlivable

[@Rick-nq3mz]

Inslee has been pretty quiet about this one!

[@republicofslavs4004]

A commenter on KZbin recommended the book 25 Lies. The book exposes 25 of the lies dems tell and the truth about them. Highly recommend this book.

[@dashcan8479]

City of Bellevue Police are discrminating against me in hiring demanding a 1-94 as a background "check" without a job offer. They are also discriminating against me as a disabled person. They are violators of the ADA and EEOC laws.

[@pibarrante6901]

[@williamedwards8183]

Criminal negligence How can a non citizen be held accountable by US law/courts? Instant deportation on first offense/arrest.

[@Bob-bb3ur]

Spoken like a true idiot.

[@alaskahaul2085]

Rip to the officer. Nobody deserves that. What makes it worse was that it should of been prevented but thanks to democratic policy now a innocent life has been taken away from his family. Crazy world we live in today

[@LittleStar261]

[@Cuptial-ev9tb]

I can’t stand the WSP. Seriously, screw them. But still, this is NOT the way.

[@andypettit5869]

How about screw Biden administration for letting in illegal aliens, what the hell does it have to do with state police?

[@Cuptial-ev9tb]

@andypettit5869 “What does it have to do with state police?” I would like to point you to the title of this video, specifically the word “WSP”.

[@fasthighwaydriver59732]

​@andypettit5869 WSP chief is an appointed by Inslee. Do you know who appoints WSP chief and city police chief. Cops don't work for companies they work for government

[@mico1664]

Its important not to stigmatize illegsls or something

[@andypettit5869]

The Democrat progressives think of them as super citizens, especially here in Washington State, house them, give them free medical and welfare. Keep voting blue morons because it's just not bad enough until you, or your family members ends up like this. Liberalism is a mental disorder.
