The sanctuary state of California previously freed from police custody an illegal alien MS-13 Gang member who went on to murder a woman in front of her daughter, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency reveals.

Herbert Nixon Flores, a 46-year-old illegal alien MS-13 gang member from El Salvador, was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Irving, Texas, after he appeared to murder his ex-girlfriend, 35-year-old Karen Ruiz, in front of her three-year-old daughter outside of her babysitter’s home.

ICE agents revealed this week that the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), which enforces a strict sanctuary policy to shield illegal aliens from arrest and deportation, freed Flores from their custody last year despite a long criminal history and their insistance for him to be turned over to their custody.

ICE confirmed that Flores had been ordered deported from the United States 10 times since 1990 but continuously re-entered illegally, likely through the U.S.-Mexico border. {snip}

His most recent arrest came in September 2020, when he was charged with domestic violence by the LAPD. ICE officials issued a detainer for Flores the following day — which is a request for law enforcement to turn illegal aliens over to federal immigration agents for arrest and deportation — but LAPD instead released him back into the community.
