Illegal Alien with Violent Criminal History Arrested at California Marijuana Farm

A Customs and Border Protection (CBP) commissioner revealed that one of the illegal aliens arrested during a raid at a California marijuana farm on Thursday is a violent criminal with a history of child molestation. The arrest disproves claims from leftists that those detained were all innocent farm workers.
Federal immigration officers raided two marijuana farms in Ventura County, detaining approximately 200 illegal aliens. Protesters attacked the officers, and a Democratic Congressman attempted to breach police lines. National Guard troops were also present during the operation.
CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott confirmed that one of the arrested individuals had been sentenced to seven years for kidnapping and attempted rape, with a prior conviction for attempted child molestation. This individual was working at the same farm as 10 children, including a 14-year-old.
The Trump Administration has proposed a plan to streamline work visas for illegal aliens on farms, which critics argue amounts to de facto amnesty. President Trump denied amnesty, stating, “What we’re doing is we’re getting rid of criminals, but we are doing a work program.” However, the plan appears to grant visas to illegal aliens, some of whom, as revealed in the raid, are violent criminals or child predators.
