White House invites Rachel Morin’s mother to press briefing to share daughter’s story The mother of a Maryland woman who was killed by an individual who entered the country illegally addressed reporters at the White House on Wednesday as the Trump administration seeks to go on offense over the case of an individual who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador. Patty Morin, whose daughter Rachel’s 2023 killing became a flashpoint in the presidential campaign last year, was a “special guest” of the White House at a previously unscheduled briefing with reporters.Press secretary Karoline Leavitt opened the briefing by criticizing Democrats for their outrage over the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man the administration had acknowledged in court documents it mistakenly deported to a notorious El Salvador prison. In her remarks to reporters, Patty Morin argued that deporting those in the country illegally was a matter of common sense and putting U.S. citizens first. “Why should we allow violent criminals that have no conscience at all to murder our mothers, our sisters, our daughters?” Patty Morin said. “We are American citizens. We need to protect our families, our borders, our children.” Patty Morin shared graphic details about her daughter’s death and how she was violently attacked. Her killer, Victor Martinez-Hernandez, was found guilty Monday. Martinez-Hernandez has been accused of illegally entering the United States from El Salvador. https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=WHITE+HOUSE+INVITES+MOTHER+OF+RACHELL+MORAN&mid=7352C397D5A81106AA2D7352C397D5A81106AA2D&FORM=VIRE
