Montgomery county isn’t giving them a sanctuary. Immigration law is federal law. Aren’t you conservatives all about limited government? This is what limited government means. Not doing the feds’ job for them. Montgomery County complies with all federal law. It just doesn’t do more than that.

BS. For the 100th time, no one is asking MoCo to do the feds job. If they can call ICE on some cases (those deemed serious enough based on unclear criteria), they can call ICE on all cases. There is no law that says it's legal to call in some cases based on made up criteria but not other cases. Elrich is backtracking and trying to have it both ways so that people won't see the stupidity of not working with ICE and not allowing them into the jails. This reporter is doing exactly what he should be in exposing Elrich pandering policies as dangerous. Good for him for presenting the facts of what innocents are dealing with because of this MoCo policy.

Elrich taught at Rolling Terrace for 17 years. Here is his bio - https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/exec/bio/marc_elrich.html

I think he genuinely cares about people - but to a fault. I imagine that his teaching experiences motivated him to take on a political role. In my experiences, however, a bleeding heart liberal - particularly those I've had as colleagues in the school system - tend to enable and make excuses for people/students.

This is what he's doing in his role. Unfortunately, the very people he's trying to protect are those who have been harmed by those beasts. Many are children, mostly Hispanic, who attend MCPS schools.

At what point do you stop labeling people under one category, using Identity Politics to protect an entire group, while ignoring the fact that there are bad apples in every culture?

Elrich aside, any LEA can contact ICE if there's a question about immigration status. There are no specific rules. But here's the thing. What "unspoken rules" might LEA have to follow regarding racial profiling in this case? In a very liberal area, like Mo Co, I'm sure the PD feel pressure.

Here's MCPD's 2018 annual crime report:
https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/POL/Resources/Files/PDF/PDResources/MCPD_Annual%20Report%20Crime%20Safety_2018.pdf

Page 9 shows:
277 forcible rapes reported and then other sex offenses like forcible sodomy and fondling and forcible fondling. The post showing arrests from August are only for rape charges.

I am the poster who linked the arrests for the past month.
Yes, MoCo's site also has crime reports..

My statement was that the list of people were for ARRESTS for the past month. Another poster doubted my information. I stand by it.

But it does not account for even a small percentage of rapes.

Aren’t you more concerned that there are rapes and no arrests... that’s very troubling.

Oh look! A red herring!

Interesting how Kevin Lewis' reporting at Sinclair-owned WJLA has changed from Montgomery County local news reporter to exclusively covering crimes committed by men with latin sounding names in Mont Co. Probably a coincidence, I'm sure.

I live in MoCo and I don’t really care who Lewis works for. Just glad that someone is covering these stories and bringing to light an issue that is affecting women in MoCo.

Sounds like he’s covering rapes against women. If those rapes are committed by men with ‘Latin sounding names’ (??? What does that even mean? What is a Latin name?). Then that really isn’t his fault.

You don’t mind being manipulated?

DP
Being manipulated? By a reporter who is reporting facts?
LOL.

Yes. Because you have been led to believe all the rapes in moco or most the rapes in moco are by Hispanics but that isn’t true.

What makes you think this? Had these men been promptly deported, detained until their immigration hearings or better yet sent back to Mexico to wait, this would not have happened and at least 7 men would not have had the opportunity to rape children and women here. Removing any threat from the community is positive, even if it doesn't solve the entire threat that includes American attackers.

It makes me think this because you are not discussing how to stop all rapes in Montgomery county.

The only reason these men were here is because ICE is not doing their job. Thanks to moco they will he tried and convinced. If ICE had their druthers they would just let these men go again.

Please answer why we would send them to Mexico? They are not Mexican!

Do you think all Hispanics are Mexican?

No they are here because counties like MoCo give them sanctuary. That looks like it's worked out terribly for citizens.

We would send them to Mexico because it is the current policy to send "asylum seekers" back across the border to Mexico to wait until their immigration hearings are complete. That way they cant travel to MoCo to rape children while their "asylum" cases work their way through the overburdened court system. At least be aware of what's going on before asking stupid questions.

You can thank Kevin for exposing some of the heinous crimes committed in MCPS.

His angle THIS TIME was illegal immigration and its effects on Mo Co. If this is too much for you, find another reporter.

Agreed. As an MCPS parent, this is important to me. MCPS certainly doesn’t want these crimes publicized. Just like MoCo politicians don’t want these rapes publicized.

Someone in the media needs to go against the tide and bring these cases to light. I appreciate Kevin Lewis for doing it. Especially when he risks exposing himself to such hateful comments from the public simply for presenting facts.

Anonymous wrote:MoCo police chooses which crimes to issue press releases about. Usually it's cases where the parties aren't that well known to each other, or they were particularly heinous. So a random attacker jumping out of the bushes and raping a random woman at night is going to earn itself a press release. A date rape may not (but it did earlier this week... though they didn't know each other that well). I think the idea is the average person fears violent crime where the targets were random, as opposed to two drug gangs shooting it out amongst themselves.

But in their weekly crime reports, they do report more broadly, though not all crimes. They in particular make sure to list crimes where the suspect has not been found yet. Let's take a look at the most recent report, from earlier this month:

https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/POL/Resources/Files/08-16-19.pdf

So in cases where the race of the suspect was known:
25 black
3 hispanic
4 white

All but one of those were males. MoCo needs to focus its diversity efforts when it comes to who is suspected of committing crimes. Not an Asian among them, and blacks are way over-represented.

Bingo. Illegal > rape victim

Yes the #metoo crowd is quiet on any sex crimes by illegal aliens, or quickly obfuscates. Which is it?

I can’t do eureka math but 4/500 = .008

It looks like you only talk about .8% of rapes.

Care to comment on the other 99.2% of rapes?

No, because PP is a misogynistic (criticizing metoo - WTF?) and xenophobic nasty person.

TF. Criticizing #metoo is important to protect it from frivolous accusations and keep it legitimate

Criticism is not a bad thing. For example, calling another poster misogynistic, xenophobic, and nasty makes one appear irrational.

No he is not reporting “rapes against women” there are about 10 a week in moco but nary a word about any of the other ones.

This is the list of those arrested in MoCo over the last 30 days on sex offenses. Your statement is FOS.

No it isn’t.

That is what the paper reported.

There were 500 rapes in moco last year.

Yes, it is.
This is what is on the Montgomery County police website.
