Last September, Raleigh, N.C., resident Jamar Beach was killed in a crash that was so violent he was decapitated. When Mexican national Neri Damian Cruz-Carmona pleaded guilty<\/a> last week to felony hit-and-run, his mother, Cameo Robinson, made clear she knew her son did not have to die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe had no business here in the\nfirst place and he should not have been operating a vehicle,\u201d said Beach’s\nmother. \u201cHe didn’t have a license. So therefore he’s being treated better than\nthe citizen who’s been killed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robinson has clear thoughts on\nwhat comes after the alien\u2019s prison term ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNow that he’s committed this\nhorrendous crime, he definitely doesn’t deserve to be in America. Because if he\nwanted to be in America he would have come legally,\u201d declared Robinson, who\nplans to press for deportation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the sentencing hearing,\nCruz-Carmona\u2019s attorney Woody Vann told the judge his client came to the U.S. \u201cto\ntry to make a better life for himself, to try to send money back to his family\nin Mexico,\u201d but glossed over the fact his client had continued to violate the\nlaws of the country he entered illegally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the creative license used\nby the attorney failed to impress the court, which sentenced him to the maximum\nof 20-33 months in prison, the unpleasant reality for Jamar Beach\u2019s family is\nthat he could be released in 14 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, the Supreme Court affirmed in a 5-4 decision<\/a> that the government has the authority to detain criminal aliens upon their release as their removal proceedings progress, so no sensible person would question that Cruz-Carmona can (and should) go directly from prison into ICE custody until his deportation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The problem is that sensible\npeople were not elected sheriff of Wake County, the jurisdiction into which\nRaleigh falls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After pledging in his campaign last fall to sever ties with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), newly-elected Wake County Sheriff Gerald Baker followed through on his promise<\/a> shortly after he took office when he released 16 individuals under ICE detainers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baker, like other pro-sanctuary\nofficials, contends his actions are designed to improve trust between law\nenforcement and the immigrant community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what will creating a\nsanctuary for illegal aliens do to inspire any trust in Americans like Cameo\nRobinson? She knows her son would be alive today if elected officials like\nBaker cared about enforcing the immigration laws of the U.S. and not just making\nthemselves feel good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sheriff Baker may not be able to\nprevent Robinson from being at the prison gates when her son\u2019s killer is\nreleased, but the question remains whether he will tell ICE when the killer is\nreleased?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
