Close the border. Lock him up for the rest of his life.

[@atomicdivide2509]

yeah, they did close the boarder. now, instead of turning themselves in to the boarder guards, they sneak in. thus raising the amount of "gotaways".

Investigative genetic genealogy is such a game changer. Now it is being employed in ongoing cases as well as cold cases. That is how the University of Idaho murders suspect was found. In this case, authorities earlier on thought it was near impossible to find the suspect by this means, but they were proven wrong, fortunately.

Interesting point about congress protecting citizens. What has happened is that criminals and illegal immigrant criminals get more protection than we do. Homeless drug addicts, those made mentally ill by drugs... The results are obvious. A shame the two parties cannot reach 'across the aisle' effort and get this all addressed. Public safety at all levels. If that means more prisons or longer sentences for repeat offenders and some fist time offenses, we need to get it done.

i thought the same exact thing when i saw a previous news clip. if he's escaped for murder in past and aggravated assault on a woman and child...PLUS this. YES THERE ARE MORE VICTIMS and because he's a "roamer" he's likely left a trail of death and harm in his wake. I have no doubt there's more victims
