I have been outspoken on this case since the beginning because the facts are so terrible. Stranger kidnappings are very rare, but very dangerous and terrifying to the victim and the community. Now we know that charged individual is allegedly an illegal alien who drove from New Jersey to a very rural Lancaster County to attempt to prey on an Amish woman here.
From the ABC27 article: "when she turned around after feeling a tap on her shoulder and saw Junior Davila-Moran, 26, according to an affidavit of probable cause filed by the Pennsylvania State Police. He was holding a knife and handcuffs."
The charged individual was previously in custody and allowed to stay in the U.S. in a "Resettlement" program. From the LNP article today:
“'In January 2018, Border Patrol arrested Davila-Moran in Donna, Texas after he illegally entered the country. He was transferred to Office of Refugee Resettlement custody due to being a juvenile,' an ICE spokesperson said in a statement."
This is exactly why we must enforce the law. This is exactly what I have warned about in the face of anti-law enforcement protestors who come to our public meetings and attack law enforcement for doing their jobs and working with ICE. This is exactly why every law enforcement agency must work with their federal partners to keep Americans safe. If you care at all about your neighbors, enforce the law.
(I am surprised the LNP actually reported that it was an illegal alien as they have consistently appeared to side with and work with anti-law enforcement protestors.)
You watch the news. Another murder. Another violent assault. The person had a record. They were out pending other violent cases on a non-monetary bond.
You ask yourself why.
Here’s your why.
It’s not the magistrates. They get overruled.
Allegheny County Pretrial Services does the risk assessment and recommends release. Their "recommendations" put people facing terroristic threats, stalking, aggravated assault, and child endangerment back on the street with no cash bond.
Matthew Darby was one of them. He murdered Alina Sheykhet.
Elijah Hemingway was one of them. Dr. Idris Evans was murdered.
Tyler Scott Mason was one of them. He killed 3-year-old Aiden Lombardi.
Why keep recommending release on serious violent charges?
Because the incentives were paid for.
$5.504 million from the MacArthur Foundation’s Safety and Justice Challenge:
2018 — $2,000,000
2020/2021 — $2,000,000
2022 — $1,170,000
2024 — $334,000
The goal was jail population reduction.
What did the money buy?
Not the people doing the work.
Staff stayed in the $30,000s until year 10. Top pay only hit after a decade.
I bought chairs, keyboards, and other supplies for the entire office out of my own pocket when things broke. I cleaned the place myself.
And what did I get in return? Investigators who had bought into the system talking shit about me behind my back.
Yellow water poured through the ceiling from the men's showers above. I was forced to move desks and cover equipment with plastic, getting soaked myself in the process. Our bosses refused to deal with it or have it fixed.
It kept happening.
The grants paid for population targets and policy changes.
They did not pay for the office or the staff inside it.
The magistrates take the blame.
Pretrial stays invisible.
That has to change.

I'm going to say something that needs to be repeated A LOT over the next two years.
If you are on the Right and someone else on the Right disagrees with you on your choice for the GOP Presidential candidate, you should definitely argue it out with them on an informed, FRIENDLY basis.
And then when the nominee is chosen, the two of you need to join hands and unite behind that candidate.
The alternative is communist jihadists.
The primary season is the time to ARGUE (respectfully).
The general election is the time to UNITE.
If you hate everyone who disagrees with you, uniting becomes impossible and so does winning.
A month later and the story is gone. Pretrial is off the hook — again. Dr. Evans is still dead. Help me keep this in front of people.
Please share this.

Every Republican legislature in America should immediately pass legislation to:
1) Ban sanctuary cities
2) Ban Ranked Choice Voting
3) Ban ballot harvesting
4) Require citizenship to vote
5) Require photo ID to vote
6) Ban the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact
7) Ban foreign entities from buying property
8) Suspend any gas taxes
9) Institute school choice
10) Abolish property taxes
11) Open non-juror records to public inspection
12) Mandate secretaries of state to share complete voter registration rolls with DOJ
13) Mandate voter roll list maintenance
14) Offer rewards for convictions involving fraudulent use of Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, Social Security, or other entitlements
Republican governors would be wise to use this time to convene special sessions.
@MZHemingway Can this be looked at as anything other than a uni-party flex? They have the exact same attitude as the dems; "We will do what we want, and there is nothing you can do to stop us.".
I didnt. I grew up poor in a city neighborhood. Except we werent really poor because my parents worked their butts off to provide for us. We have so many social programs and safety nets that there are no truly poor people in the US anymore. 80% of the planet would change places with one of our poorest citizens in a heartbeat. Except in cases of true disability (rare), being poor is a choice.
“Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Well, for starters you can stand by this man. Do not leave him hanging in the wind for them to take out. It is one thing to yell at the TV & post on social media - it is another to act or risk something. The failure of others does not give anyone an excuse to do nothing. If you think things are bad now, you have no idea how bad they’re about to get. Stealing the midterms was not the end goal - it was just the beginning. So unless you’re prepared to put some skin in the game, speak up & be counted, remember you cannot complain about the results of work you did not do. It is a privilege to have the chance to do the right thing. It is never a burden. So the least all of us can do is stand up for those like this man who has risked everything & done everything he possibly could to serve you.
I started learning about & investigating election & vote fraud in Texas before the 2020 election. I worked with a group who showed me how Ted Cruz had not narrowly beaten Beto O’Rourke by a narrow margin as the official result showed, they demonstrated he real margin had been 12 percent. And they tried to get Texas leadership back then to do something about it but they instead did nothing. Now they have paid the price. Those chickens have come home to roost. They could hav done what De Santis did in Florida to clean up elections - instead they let all these fake “new” voters be registered & they are so good at stealing know it was seamless this time. And the people who just got power here will never let it go. So how do you fix anything? Ever?
