With all the tender
concern President Trump and Nancy Pelosi have been heaping on
"Dreamers" of late, you'd think the media would notice and pepper us
with stories about these "incredible kids," as Trump calls them.
Alas, no. Our tedious media drones refuse to provide us with moving human
interest stories about the Dreamers.
Journalists and
politicians love to give us archetypes: the DACA soldier, the DACA
valedictorian, the DACA grandmother. But there are so many other roles they
fill!
To make up for the
Fourth Estate's failure, this week, I'll highlight five Dreamers who have done
noteworthy things just in the last month.
The Bounceback Child
Rapist
A few weeks ago, U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement caught up with Dreamer Anastacio Eugenio
Lopez-Fabian, 24, in a courthouse parking lot in Oregon. Police in Seaside,
Oregon, had arrested Lopez-Fabian for multiple rapes of a girl "younger
than 14," assault and harassment.
Law enforcement then
released Lopez-Fabian the day of his arrest, without notifying I.C.E., despite
the fact that he had already been deported twice to his native Guatemala, in
2013 and 2014.
Apart from conservative
websites -- and Britain's indispensable Daily Mail! -- this story made only the
local press.
The Butterfingered Gun
Slinger
Also two weeks ago,
Dreamer Jaime Melchi-Sigas, 22, pleaded guilty to the federal offenses of
unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of a counterfeit alien
registration card. Melchi-Sigas was already serving time in a state prison for
reckless homicide and tampering with physical evidence.
His convictions stemmed
from an incident last year when Melchi-Sigas was sitting in the back seat of a
car, examining an illegal gun he intended to purchase, and accidentally shot
and killed the man in the front seat.
This item appeared in
one small local Bowling Green, Kentucky, newspaper.
The Oppressed Rapist
Three weeks ago,
Dreamer Alejandro Perez-Cortez, 26, appealed his five-year sentence for
attempting to anally rape a woman, pointing out that he was drunk at the time
and barely made enough money to live on, much less send back to his wife and
two children in Mexico.
The appeal was denied,
on the grounds that being drunk and poor did not constitute evidence of good
character -- and also that Perez-Cortez was an illegal alien. (Until Trump has
his way on Dreamers!)
The opinion of the
Indiana court turning down Perez-Cortez's appeal was published on March 19, but
no media found the story interesting enough to print. What I find interesting
about the case -- fascinating, in fact! -- is that we have lawyers willing to
bring utterly frivolous appeals on behalf of drunk, raping illegal aliens, but
not one willing to represent the president.
The Fleet-Footed Drunk
Driver
Dreamer Ivan Gerardo
Zamarripa-Castaneda, 26, killed 57-year-old John Anderson in Denver at around
midnight on March 3, when he smashed his pickup truck into Anderson's truck,
setting off a fiery explosion and shutting down I-70 for hours. This poor
Mexican who was driving drunk on an interstate -- through no fault of his own
-- fled the scene.
In another example of
the day-to-day terror illegal aliens endure "living in the shadows,"
Zamarripa-Castaneda was captured by the police the next day, sound asleep at
his home. And that wasn't the end of Zamarripa-Castaneda's nightmare. After his
arrest, Denver police held him for ONE FULL WEEK, before releasing him without
informing I.C.E.
Only after Attorney
General Jeff Sessions and President Trump began denouncing the local sheriff
for refusing to turn Zamarripa-Castaneda over to I.C.E. did the story appear
anywhere beyond the local press. Now in I.C.E.'s clutches, Zamarripa-Castaneda
waits impatiently for Trump to amnesty "incredible kids" like him.
The May-December Rapist
Dreamer Juan Vazquez
Cornelio, 38, was recently charged with raping a 10-year-old girl and sending
her to the hospital. The reddest state in the Union -- Alabama -- gave
Kardashian-level media coverage to the arrest: THREE local news stories. The
Tuscaloosa News lavished 100 words on the child-rapist before turning to
another topic: "Severe weather possible Monday in state -- Tuscaloosa
County could experience severe weather beginning Monday afternoon, according to
the National Weather Service."
The illegal alien
Mexican Dreamer was charged with rape in the first degree, the girl was
hospitalized and it's going to rain on Monday.
