An undocumented Haitian immigrant has been accused of killing a mother by striking her with a hammer at a gas station in Florida.

“This illegal alien barbarically hit this woman in the head multiple times with a hammer. This heinous murderer was released into the country by the Biden administration. Not only did the Biden administration release him into the country, but they then gave him Temporary Protected Status. Their reckless immigration policies cost this woman her life,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on Tuesday that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) assisted the Fort Myers Police Department in the arrest of Rolbert Joachim, a Haitian man accused of killing a mother with a hammer at a Fort Myers gas station.
