Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

October 25, 2018

Lars:

It has been an interesting last full week in the month of October when it comes to criminal aliens (illegal aliens) here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week for your KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners we take a look at an illegal alien who is being detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the State of Washington at the at the Tacoma Northwest Detention Center (NWDC).

Saja Tunkara’s story made the regional progressive news publications for his complaining about not receiving adequate medical treatment as an immigration detainee at the NWDC.

According to ICE Public Affairs “Mr. Tunkara’s criminal history includes a conviction for domestic violence in October 2017.”

Wanting to find out more information on why Saja Tunkara is in ICE custody at the NWDC and being removed from the United States of America (USA), I contacted via e-mail on Wednesday, October 17, 2018 ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman to investigate the immigration status of Tunkara.

Here are some of the written questions I sent to ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman:

Was Saja Tunkara illegally present in the United States of America (USA) when he was convicted of domestic violence?

An important follow up question, in what state of the country did Saja Tunkara’s conviction for domestic violence occur?

Do ICE Officers know the reason Saja Tunkara was in the USA?

How long has Saja Tunkara been a detainee at the Tacoma, Washington Northwest Detention Center (NWDC)?

Is there any chance that ICE might have to release Saja Tunkara from the NWDC because he has been held longer than 180 days?

Has Saja Tunkara ever served time in a federal prison for immigration crimes or violations?

How many times if any has ICE removed Saja Tunkara from the USA?

Do ICE officers know the actual country of origin of Saja Tunkara?

Is country of origin of Saja Tunkara a recalcitrant country that won’t take back its own citizens who commit crimes in the USA?

Four days later, on the afternoon of Monday, September 22nd, here is what ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman had to say via e-mail in response to my inquiry for information on Saja Tunkara:

“U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) does not retaliate in any way against detainees. Saja Tunkara is in ICE custody because an immigration judge granted him voluntary departure, but he failed to comply. As a result, his voluntary departure order became a final order of removal. In September 2018, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied his motion for a stay of removal. At this point in time, there is no legal impediment to removing him from the U.S.”–Tanya Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer

“On Background:

Was Saja Tunkara illegally present in the United States when he was convicted of domestic violence? Yes.

In what state of the country did Saja Tunkara’s conviction for domestic violence occur? Washington.

How long has Saja Tunkara been a detainee at the Tacoma, Washington Northwest Detention Center (NWDC)? Saja Tunkara has been at the NWDC since Jan. 9, 2018.

Has Saja Tunkara ever served time in a federal prison for immigration crimes or violations? No

How many times if any has ICE removed Saja Tunkara from the USA? Saja Tunkara has not been previously removed from the U.S.

Do ICE officers know the actual country of origin of Saja Tunkara? Tunkara has stated under oath that he is a citizen of Sierra Leone and has a valid travel document from this country.– ICE Public Affairs.

Apparently there is another side to the story of Saja Tunkara’s claims of not receiving adequate medical treatment as an immigration detainee at the NWDC according to ICE Public Affairs:

“During his time in ICE custody, Mr. Tunkara has received timely and appropriate medical care consistent with the agency’s rigorous performance-based national detention standards. Like all individuals in ICE custody, he underwent a comprehensive medical assessment within 24 hours of arriving at the Northwest Detention Center. At that time, Mr. Tunkara advised ICE Health Service Corps staff of a 2.5 cm non-cancerous tumor on his neck. Prior to entering ICE custody, surgery to correct the condition was deemed elective, and even so, ICE’s Health Service Corps worked with a surgeon to secure a surgery date for Mr. Tunkara. ICE went to significant lengths to ensure Mr. Tunkara received this surgery, including delaying his ordered removal to Gambia. Any additional medical concerns were also addressed, as ICE does for all individuals in its custody.”

“The timing of Mr. Tunkara’s surgery was determined by his surgeon. The surgical team initially said surgery could not be performed until August 2018, and the ICE Health Service Corps ensured the surgery happened sooner than the initial proposed date.”

“The ICE Health Service Corps went to significant lengths to ensure that Mr. Tunkara received this surgery, a surgery that is likely not available in his home country.” – ICE Public Affairs.

One last bit of information, on October 3, 2018 ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman reported “There are approximately 1,370 detainees at the Northwest Detention Center. . .”

Lars, the last full week of October and another criminal alien report for Lars Larson Show KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners.

Beyond the DOC criminal alien incarceration numbers and incarceration percentages, per county and per crime type, or even country of origin, criminal aliens pose high economic cost on Oregonians.

An individual prisoner incarcerated in the DOC prison system costs the state approximately ($108.26) per day.

The DOC’s incarceration cost for its 920 criminal alien prison population is approximately ($99,599.20) per day, ($697,194.40) per week, and ($36,353,708.00) per year.

None of preceding cost estimates for the DOC to incarcerate the 920 criminal aliens includes the dollar amount for legal services (indigent defense), language interpreters, court costs, or victim assistance.

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

October 18, 2018

Lars:

It has been an interesting second full week in the month of October when it comes to criminal illegal aliens here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week we take a look at for your KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners an illegal alien who were sentenced in a Polk County Circuit Court to serve time in the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) prison system for the death of one of the state’s residents.

Marcos Antonio-Luz while Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants (DUII) killed Clifford Eugene Fagaly, age 69, father of two daughters, a resident of Silverton, in Polk County, Oregon on Saturday, January 19, 2013.

My research indicates Marcos Antonio-Luz (SID: 18435964; DOB: 07/1971) is still incarcerated in the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) prison system:

Currently Marcos Antonio-Luz, age 47, is incarcerated at the Oregon State Penitentiary located in Salem, Oregon. A visit to the DOC Oregon Offender Search webpage reveals that Marcos Antonio-Luz is being incarcerated for one count of Manslaughter I and one count of Assault II. Antonio-Luz entered the DOC prison system on August 8, 2013, his earliest release date is September 27, 2030.

Wanting to know the current actual immigration status of Marcos Antonio-Luz, I contacted via e-mail on Tuesday, October 16, 2018 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman to investigate the immigration status of the DOC inmate.

Here are some of the written questions I sent to ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman:

Was Marcos Antonio-Luz illegally present in the United States of America when he killed the Oregon resident?

Have ICE officer’s placed immigration detainer on Marcos Antonio-Luz since his incarceration in the DOC prison system?

If ICE officer’s placed immigration detainer on Marcos Antonio-Luz will DOC prison officials honor the immigration detainer?

Has Marcos Antonio-Luz ever served time in a federal prison for immigration crimes or violations?

Is ICE currently trying to remove Marcos Antonio-Luz for past crimes he may have committed while illegally present in the country?

How many times if any has ICE removed Marcos Antonio-Luz from the United States of America?

Do ICE officers know the actual country of origin of Marcos Antonio-Luz?

Approximately two days later, on the morning of Thursday, October 18, 2018 here is what ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman had to say via e-mail in response to my inquiry for information on the immigration status Marcos Antonio-Luz:

“Here is our response to your inquiry concerning Antonio-Luz.”

“Marcos Antonio-Luz, a citizen of Mexico, is illegally present in the United States. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged an immigration detainer on Antonio-Luz at the Polk County Jail following his arrest, as well as a detainer after his incarceration with the Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC). He was voluntarily returned to Mexico on three previous occasions.” -Tanya Roman, Public Affairs Officer, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement

“ON BACKGROUND:

If ICE officer’s placed immigration detainer on Marcos Antonio-Luz will DOC prison officials honor the immigration detainer? YES

Has Marcos Antonio-Luz ever served time in a federal prison for immigration crimes or violations? NO

Is ICE currently trying to remove Marcos Antonio-Luz for past crimes he may have committed while illegally present in the country? NO – ICE Public Affairs.

Mexican national Marcos Antonio-Luz is one of the 135 criminal aliens in the Oregon Department of Corrections prison system incarcerated for the crime of homicide.

It has been an interesting first full week in the month of October when it comes to criminal illegal aliens here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week we take a look at for your KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners three illegal aliens who were sentenced, two in Yamhill and one in Multnomah County Circuit Courts, to serve time in the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) prison system for the deaths of three of the state’s residents.

Ignacio Merendon-Zerega (SID: 7213917; DOB: 11/1962) while Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants (DUII) killed Judyth Anne Cox, a 66-year old wife, mother of two and grandmother of six, a resident of Newberg, in Yamhill County on December 3, 2007.

Currently Ignacio Merendon-Zerega is incarcerated at the Snake River Correctional Institution located in Ontario, Oregon. A visit to the DOC Oregon Offender Search webpage reveals that Ignacio Merendon-Zerega is being incarcerated for one count of Manslaughter I, one count Driving Under Influence Felony and one count of Failure to Perform Duties Driver Injury. Ignacio Merendon-Zerega entered the DOC prison system on May 6, 2008, his earliest release date is March 27, 2022

Leonel Zurita-Loeza (SID: 17045856; DOB: 09/1981) while driving DUII killed Carma Colleen Smith, a 52-year old wife, mother of seven and grandmother of four, a resident of Dayton, in Yamhill County on May 11, 2008.

Currently Leonel Zurita- Loeza is incarcerated at the Two Rivers Correctional Institution located in Umatilla, Oregon. A visit to the DOC Oregon Offender Search webpage reveals Leonel Zurita- Loeza is being incarcerated for one count of Manslaughter I and four counts of Assault III. Leonel Zurita- Loeza entered the DOC prison system on August 14, 2008, his earliest release date is March 1, 2023.

Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez (SID: 16599221; DOB: 10/1978) while driving DUII killed John Zupan (founder of Zupan’s Markets), a 66-year old father of two, in Multnomah County on August 30, 2011.

Currently Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez is incarcerated at the Oregon State Penitentiary located in Salem, Oregon. A visit to the DOC Oregon Offender Search webpage reveals Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez is being incarcerated for one count of Manslaughter II. Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez entered the DOC prison system on January 20, 2012, his earliest release date is February 26, 2019.

Wanting to know the current actual immigration status of Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez, I contacted via e-mail on Tuesday, October 9, 2018 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman to investigate the immigration status of the three DOC inmates.

Here are some of the written questions I sent to ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman:

Were Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez illegally present in the United States of America when they killed the three Oregon residents?

Have ICE Officers placed immigration detainers on Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez since their incarceration in the DOC prison system?

If ICE Officer’s placed immigration detainers on Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez will DOC prison officials honor those immigration detainers?

Have ICE officers obtained federal judicial warrants for the arrests Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez since they have been in custody of the DOC?

Have Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez ever served time in a federal prison for immigration crimes or violations?

How many times if any has ICE removed Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez from the United States of America?

Do ICE Officers know the actual countries of origin of Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez?

Approximately two days later, on the morning of Thursday, October 11, 2018 here is what ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman had to say via e-mail in response to my inquiry for information on the three DOC inmates immigration status:

“Here is our response to your inquiry.

“These individuals have demonstrated that they are a threat to their communities. It is the mission of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to protect public safety by enforcing immigration laws and removing those who threaten that safety from our communities.” – Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs.

“EXTERNAL BACKGROUND (To be attributed to ICE Official):

Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza and Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez are illegally present in the United States.

Immigration detainers have been placed on all three individuals.

Merendon-Zerego and Zurit-Loeza are citizens of Mexico

Ryenoso-Ramirez is a citizen of Guatemala.

All three detainers are being honored by the Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC).

ICE has not obtained federal judicial warrants for the civil immigration arrests Ignacio Merendon-Zerega, Leonel Zurita-Loeza or Edy Porfirio Reynoso-Ramirez because there is no basis by which to do so.

ICE has no record of these individuals previously serving time in federal prisons for crimes related to immigration violations.

Merendon-Zerega has been previously removed from the U.S. once. There are no prior removal records for Zurita-Loeza or Reynoso-Ramirez.” – ICE Public Affairs

U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons: Criminal Alien Report September 2018

U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons: Criminal Alien Report September 2018

October 10, 2018

By David Olen Cross

The United States having a significant foreign national population residing within the nations boundaries, be they legally or illegally present in the country, unfortunately includes those who commit crimes.

The extent and impact of foreign national crime on the U.S. citizens and residents of this country is clearly revealed by a simple search on the U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) inmates statistics website under the heading of inmate citizenship.

Here are the countries of origin, moreover, the number and percentage of those countries citizens recently incarcerated in the U.S. BOP prison system (Note: The most recent BOP crime numbers available were from September 29, 2018.).

Inmate Citizenship:

– México 22,097 inmates, 12.2 percent;
– Colombia 1,649 inmates, 0.9 percent;
– Dominican Republic 1,423 inmates, 0.8 percent;
– Cuba 1,168 inmates, 0.6 percent;
– Other / unknown countries 8,847 inmates, 4.9 percent;
– United States 146,118 inmates, 80.6 percent;

Total Inmates: 182,302 inmates.

To explain the meaning of these preceding criminal alien inmate numbers and percentages, I will translate them into words:

Combining September 29th BOP criminal alien inmate numbers, there were 35,184 criminal aliens in the BOP prison system. Alien inmates were 19.4 percent of the federal prison population.

With 22,097 Mexican nationals being incarcerated in the BOP prison system, at 62.8 percent, they were the vast majority of criminal aliens in federal prisons.

The U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons breaks down the federal prison population into 13 types of offenses. One of the top five offenses, the reason inmates are serving time in federal prisons is for immigration crimes. There were 11,038 inmates in the BOP prison system incarcerated for immigration crimes; they were 6.5 percent of the federal prison population.

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

October 4, 2018

Lars:

It has been an interesting first week in the month of October when it comes to criminal aliens (illegal aliens) here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week for your KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners we take a look into the backgrounds of  two illegal aliens who are being detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the State of Washington at the at the Tacoma Northwest Detention Center (NWDC).

Raquel Martinez Diaz, a Mexican national and Viacheslav Poliakov, a Russian national, are immigration detainee’s at the NWDC, who made the regional and national news for participating in hunger strikes and for the two’s lawsuit against ICE to prevent federal immigration officials from force feeding them.

Wanting to find out why Raquel Martinez Diaz and Viacheslav Poliakov were in ICE custody at the NWDC and being removed from the United States of America (USA), I contacted via e-mail on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman to investigate the immigration status of Diaz and Poliakov.

Six days later, on the afternoon of Tuesday, September 25th, here is what ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman had to say via e-mail in response to my inquiry for information on Raquel Martinez Diaz and Viacheslav Poliakov:

Raquel Martinez Diaz:

“Raquel Martinez Diaz was apprehended by U.S. Customs and Border Protection on three occasions attempting to enter the United States. Each time, Diaz was allowed to voluntarily return to Mexico rather than be placed into immigration removal proceedings. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) encountered Diaz March 12 when she was serving 180 days at the ADA County Jail in Boise, Idaho. She entered ICE custody Aug. 16.” – Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

Viacheslav Poliakov:

“Viacheslav Poliakov was apprehended at the San Ysidro Port of Entry by U.S. Customs and Border Protection March 26. An immigration judge issued him a final order of removal Aug. 30, and he has filed an appeal with the Board of Immigration Appeals, which is pending. Beyond his immigration violations, Poliakov does not have any criminal convictions in the U.S.” –Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

On October 3, 2018 ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman reported “There are approximately 1370 detainees at the Northwest Detention Center (NWDC) and 410 detainers with the Washington Department of Corrections.”

Analysis of the preceding information:

Raquel Martinez Diaz is a Mexican national illegally present in the USA who has attempted to illegally enter the country on three prior occasions but was apprehended by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

After her successful illegally entry into the country, Raquel Martinez Diaz was encountered by ICE agents while she was serving a 180 day sentence at the Ada County Jail which is located in Boise, Idaho.

Viacheslav Poliakov is a Russian national illegally present in the USA who has attempted to illegally enter the country on one occasion but was apprehended by U.S. CBP at the San Ysidro Port of Entry which is located in San Diego, California.

According to ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman, the Russian national has no criminal convictions in the USA.
