CNN Presidential Debate: Illegal immigration looms as top issue amid outrage over 12-year-old girl's murder
Fox News
The ongoing crisis at the southern border is likely to be a top issue at this week's debate after a string of horrific crimes committed by illegal immigrants.
The arrests came the same week as the arrest of an Ecuadorian national in the U.S. illegally for a broad daylight sex attack in which police said a machete-wielding man raped a 13-year-old girl at a park. Last week, police also announced that an illegal migrant from El Salvador had been arrested for the murder of Rachel Morin — a Maryland mother of five. The horrific crimes are part of a broader wave of crimes across the U.S. committed by those in the country illegally.
