THIS IS WHY WE SUPPORT ICE. PERIOD. These are real Americans who should still be alive today. Every person listed below was killed in a separate violent crime committed by someone who was in this country illegally. Different states. Different dates. Same pattern. Same failure. Dacara Thompson (19) - Killed in a home in Bowie, Maryland. Her body was thrown off a bridge. Laken Riley (22) — Jogging on campus when she was beaten with a rock, suffocated, and assaulted. Rachel Morin (37) — A mother of five abducted on a hiking trail, killed, and hidden in a culvert. Kayla Hamilton (20) - A young woman with autism, bound, assaulted, and strangled in her own home. Jocelyn Nungaray (12) - Abducted, assaulted, and killed in Houston. Found in a creek. Larisha Sharell Thompson (40) — Shot and killed during a random attempted robbery in South Carolina. Jamiel Shaw II (17) — A high school athlete shot in the street after being mistaken for a rival gang member. These families deserved protection. These lives deserved safety. These tragedies were avoidable. This is why enforcement matters. This is why ICE matters.
