If you are a US Citizen and you aren’t rooting for USA against Belgium, you are a traitor. No other way to put it. You can’t be trusted if you are rooting against your own country in the World Cup.
UPDATE: After landing in LA today to transfer Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitive Ryan Wedding, our FBI/DOJ teams are now landing in Charlotte, NC to transfer another - Alejandro Castillo - the Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitive arrested one week ago today in Mexico.
Castillo’s quick return to the States from Mexico wouldn’t have been possible without President Trump’s and @AGPamBondi’s leadership. Mexico Ambassador Ron Johnson, Legat Mexico, the State Department, and many more great partners were instrumental in this effort as well.
Castillo was on the run in Mexico for nearly 10 years, wanted by the state of North Carolina on charges for the murder of his former coworker, 23 year old Sandy Ly Le.
In August of 2016, Ly Le’s body was found in a wooded area of Cabarrus County, NC. Her vehicle was located at a bus station in Phoenix, Arizona - and Castillo was spotted on video crossing the border from Nogales, Arizona into Mexico one day later. A federal arrest warrant was issued for Castillo in February 2017.
Today, he is being transferred back to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg authorities with @FBICharlotte to face justice.
Collectively, this is the SIXTH Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitive captured in just one year under President Trump and this FBI/DOJ - two more than the previous four years combined - and the SECOND Top Ten Most Wanted transfer from Mexico we’ve made in a single day.
Sandy Ly Lee was a first generation college graduate who had her whole life ahead of her. Her family will never get their daughter back - but I hope today can help further the healing process and bring them peace in knowing that her alleged killer will face justice.
It’s a huge day for law and order in America.
Harm American citizens, and justice will find you.

On Monday, April 15, North Tryon Division Officer Joshua Eyer was awarded Officer of the Month for his outstanding proactive policing efforts patrolling the areas of Sugar Creek, North Tryon Street & the I-85 corridor. Officer Eyer worked diligently to address quality of life concerns within these corridors, assisting the community and local business owners.

These arrests made an incredible impact on local crime and quality of life concerns.
