“Rachel Morin was on a run in Maryland, just like Laken Riley was in Georgia, when she was brutally killed by an illegal monster who was wanted for murder in El Salvador and fled to the USA because he knew Crooked Joe would let him in,” Trump wrote.
Following the arrest of an illegal immigrant connected to the murder and rape of a Maryland mother of five, Trump slammed Biden’s border policies. Trump commented on the mother’s alleged killer, as well as Jose Ibarra in the case of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley. Both suspects were able to cross the border illegally.
"ANOTHER one of Crooked Joe Biden's Illegal Immigrant Criminals was just charged with raping and murdering ANOTHER innocent American woman! Rachel Morin was on a run in Maryland, just like Laken Riley was in Georgia, when she was brutally killed by an illegal monster who was wanted for murder in El Salvador and fled to the USA because he knew Crooked Joe would let him in," Trump wrote.
"Now Rachel Morin's 5 young children will grow up without their mother because Crooked Joe refuses to shut down the border. As a matter of fact, this week, Biden is preparing to give MASS AMNESTY to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens! This is unsustainable and can't be allowed to continue! On day one, we will SHUT DOWN THE BORDER and start deporting millions of Biden's Illegal Criminals. We will once again put AMERICANS First and MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN! To Rachel Morin's family and especially her 5 children, May God be with you!"
Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, was arrested and charged on Friday in connection to the killing and rape of Rachel Morin, a mother of five from Maryland who was found dead on a hiking trail last August.
Martinez-Hernandez was arrested in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He crossed the border into the United States in February 2023. Police believe Morin was not Martinez-Hernandez’s first victim.
"It is my understanding that this suspect, this monster, fled to the United States after the murder of a young woman in El Salvador a month earlier in January of 2023," Sheriff Jeffery Gahler said.
"Once in our country, he brutally attacked a nine-year-old girl and her mother in a home invasion in March of 2023 in Los Angeles," the sheriff added. "After we had the video, we knew what he looked like, but we didn't know who he was."
According to ABC News, Morin, 37, was found dead on the Ma & Pa Heritage Trail in Northeast Maryland on August 6, 2023, one day after her boyfriend reported her missing when she didn’t return from her hike.
Gahler said that Martinez-Hernandez will be charged with first-degree murder and first-degree rape when he is extradited to Maryland.
