ICE Asks Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger to Not Release Criminal Illegal Alien From Jail Who Bludgeoned His 3-Month-Old Daughter to Death in Fairfax

This heinous murder comes merely a day after Fairfax County, VA arrested another criminal illegal alien for the fatal stabbing of an innocent American citizen

WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued an arrest detainer asking Virginia sanctuary politicians to not release a criminal illegal alien from jail back onto the streets after he allegedly murdered his three-month-old daughter in cold blood.

On March 27, the Fairfax County Police Department reports that officers responded to a call of an unresponsive 3-month-old baby girl. After life-saving CPR efforts were attempted, the baby was transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead. Preliminarily, results from the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner’s autopsy determined the cause of death was blunt force trauma.

At the time of the baby’s death, she was in the care of her father, Misael Lopez Gomez from Guatemala. This 28-year-old illegal alien is now facing murder and felony child abuse charges.

“This cold-blooded killer murdered his own three-month-old daughter. We are calling on Governor Spanberger to commit to not releasing this barbaric animal from jail into Virginia communities,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “This monster should have never been allowed in our country by the Biden administration. We need cooperation from sanctuary politicians to stop criminals from being released from jail to perpetrate more crimes and create more innocent victims.” 

Lopez Gomez admitted that he illegally crossed the United States Southern Border in July 2023 near Albuquerque, New Mexico under the Biden Administration. ICE lodged an arrest detainer for Lopez Gomez to request sanctuary politicians not release him from jail without notification to ICE.

Lopez Gomez's arrest comes just one day after another illegal alien from Guatemala, Anibal Armando Chavarria Muy, was arrested for fatally stabbing a man in his home.

One month prior, an illegal alien from Sierra Leone, Abdul Jalloh, was arrested for fatally stabbing Stephanie Minter at a bus stop in Fredericksburg. Jalloh had more than 30 arrests prior to killing the American mother. ICE has lodged detainers for both of these heinous criminal illegal aliens.
