All 3 in the country illegally!!!
Sheriff Adam Christianson told reporters Friday that the suspect was in the country illegally and that if he had been deported for previous DUI arrests, Cpl. Ronil Singh would still be alive.
This is what really bugs the shit out of me. Not only do Democrats openly advocate illegal migration, but once they're here and commit even more serious crime/crimes... they still don't want to deport them!

Christianson blamed California's sanctuary law for preventing local authorities from reporting Gustavo Perez Arriaga to federal immigration officials."
This is on Jerry Brown, Gavin Newsome, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, the revolving door of southern California Hispanic politicians, Anna Eshoo, the mayors of the major SF Bay Area cities, and YOU, WHITE DEMOCRATS.
Sanctuary Cities...the safe haven for murders, drug dealers, human trafficking. How many more have to die before we get a wall?

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The Latest on the killing of a California officer (all times local):
8:15 p.m.
A community vigil has been held to honor a Northern California policeman killed during a traffic stop.
Friends, relatives and fellow police officers along with many residents gathered Friday night in the tiny town of Newman to remember Cpl. Ronil Singh on the same day that his alleged killer was captured.
Officers and relatives held back tears as they described Singh, a native of Fiji, as a man who loved his adopted country, his community and his work.
Singh was shot Wednesday after stopping a suspected drunken driving suspect in the town southeast of San Francisco.
After a two-day manhunt, Gustavo Arriaga was arrested in connection with the killing Friday in Bakersfield.
Authorities say they were told Arriaga, who was in the country illegally, was heading to his native Mexico.

Authorities are searching for a man believed to be living in the country illegally who they say gunned down a California police officer the day after Christmas, inflaming the nationwide debate on immigration.
President Donald Trump referred to the death of police Cpl. Ronil Singh in a tweet Thursday that ended with the demand: "Build the wall!"
Singh died Wednesday after stopping a suspected drunken driver in the tiny town of Newman in California's agricultural San Joaquin Valley.
A suspect identified from convenience store video before the killing, remains at large and is considered armed and dangerous.
Newman's police chief, Randy Richardson, held back tears Thursday as he described Singh — a native of Fiji — as a patriot who worked hard to serve his adopted country.
