Sanctuary city illegal immigrant sparks $61 million fire in Sequoia National Forest

WOFFORD HEIGHTS, Calif. — Angel Gilberto Garcia-Avalos had been deported five times in just the past four years, yet each time he has managed to sneak from Mexico back into the U.S., where he ended up in more mischief: driving without a license, attempted burglary and felony weapons charges.

In August, he graduated to full-fledged mayhem, sparking a fire in the Sequoia National Forest that has already cost the government $61 million and left some of the country’s most beautiful landscape scarred for years to come.

Garcia, who pleaded guilty last month and faces 13 months in prison, had only recently been released from the Kern County Jail. He likely would have been deported again, but local authorities were unable to report him to immigration authorities because of California’s new sanctuary city law, which prohibited the sheriff from communicating with federal agents.

Federal agents now say they will kick Garcia out of the country once he serves his latest sentence, but the damage has already been done.

So why is this not all over the MSM news coverage? Oh wait, Obama told the NEWS hacks not to talk about it.

In any other world David Muir would have started his 30 minute program "Breaking News!"

Kick him out? No, just give him a shovel and a rake and tell him he'll be in that forest for the rest of his life.
