You may have thought that the sanctuary city movement is confined to California. Not so. Read about what’s going on in North Carolina.
In what appears to be a growing national trend, another elected law enforcement official released an illegal immigrant with a serious criminal conviction—in this case child sex offenses—rather than turn him over to federal authorities for removal. Sanctuary policies ban local law enforcement from honoring Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers placed on illegal aliens who have been arrested on local criminal charges. If the detainer is honored ICE takes custody and deports the criminal rather than release him or her back into the community. When law enforcement agencies fail to honor immigration detainers and free serious criminal offenders, it undermines the federal government’s duty to protect public safety.

This latest case comes out of Buncombe County, North Carolina where the recently elected sheriff, a Democrat, issued a policy earlier this year refusing to cooperate with ICE when it comes to inmates at his 608-bed jail who are in the country illegally. At the time the sheriff, Quentin Miller, proclaimed that enforcing immigration laws is not part of his agency’s duties. Miller also said that “it is vital that members of our immigrant community can call the sheriff’s office without fear when they are in need of assistance from law enforcement.”
Hiding behind that popular open borders rhetoric, the sheriff recently discharged a child sex offender to keep with his county’s sanctuary policy of protecting illegal aliens, even those with atrocious criminal records. The illegal immigrant from El Salvador, Marvin Ramirez Torres, has been on ICE’s radar since 2017 when he got arrested and charged with four felony counts of statutory sex offense with a child. At the time Torres was 23 and his victim was an 11-year-old girl, according to a local newspaper report that also states Torres must register a sex offender for 30 years. The illegal alien was convicted in North Carolina Superior Court for Buncombe County and was sentenced to less than two years in prison. Last week he was freed into the community because the Buncombe County Sheriff’s Office refused to honor the federal detainer.
Thankfully, ICE captured Torres a day after he left prison during a targeted enforcement operation in downtown Asheville. The agency blasted county officials in a statement released shortly after Torres was apprehended. . . .
About a month ago Judicial Watch reported that nearly 500 illegal immigrants with ICE detainers were discharged into communities throughout the Tar Heel State in less than a year. The offenders included those charged with serious crimes such as homicide, kidnapping, arson and sex offenses. A few weeks before the statewide figures were released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Judicial Watch reported that the elected sheriff in North Carolina’s largest county, Mecklenburg, released numerous violent offenders rather than turn them over to federal authorities for removal.

Father GOD, let them reap what they sow. Sad to say, it may only take one of these criminals to inflict harm on their own innocent family member to cause them to change their minds. To free a criminal to harm innocent people is dereliction of duty to say the least.
YOU have said in YOUR WORD, FATHER, that “Woe to anyone who causes one of these little ones to stumble. Better a mill stone be tied around his neck and he be dropped in the middle of the sea, rather than harm one of these little ones.”
Father GOD, I ask that Your Word be brought to bear on these situations. In Jesus Name. Amen.
Father- We come to You and pray for the safety of our nation. It is hard to realize that people in charge are deciding that it is good policy to free people who have behaved in such a manner and give them the opportunity to do so again. Truly this is part of the delusion that You speak of in Your Word. In Isaiah and other places You also speak of good being called evil and evil being called good. We are in desperate need of Your help. We pray that people will pay attention and realize what their elected officials are doing. Awaken us to the danger to our communities. Open the eyes of people to see that we have citizens in jail and prison for the same behavior- why should they get a pass for being an immigrant? How did it get to the place where there is such reasoning? Father- we don’t deserve anything but judgment- Our nation has been so privileged to have free access to Your Word and to be a part of a believing church. But we have let our schools become indoctrination camps for evolution, pro abortion propaganda and godlessness. It would seem that we are now paying the piper. But Lord- we ask for mercy. We ask that You would open blind eyes and allow this generation to see that You are truly the Living God- there is none like you. Help us to see our deep need before it is completely too late. We bow before You- seeking You
Father, I come in agreement with the prayers posted here. Forgive us of our sin of being complacent and passive concerning our governments actions setting criminals free. Forgive us for not taking stronger stands to protect our nation, our children, and other vulnerable citizens. Lord, let Your name be glorified in our nation & the Truth be made known. YOU are are only hope. Amen
