The recent arrest of a crim­i­nal alien on two mur­der charges came after mul­ti­ple instances in which Immi­gra­tion and Cus­toms and Enforce­ment had lodged immi­gra­tion detain­ers only to see him released by Cal­i­for­nia author­i­ties, offi­cials said.

“The alleged per­pe­tra­tor, Fer­nan­do De Jesus Lopez-Gar­cia, is a repeat immi­gra­tion offend­er with a sig­nif­i­cant crim­i­nal his­to­ry span­ning back near­ly 15 years that includes con­vic­tions for bat­tery of a spouse, assault with a dead­ly weapon, inflict­ing cor­po­ral injury on a spouse, bat­tery of an offi­cer, and van­dal­ism,” ICE said in a press release Wednesday.
