The outlet reported that he’s been charged with murder, first-degree assault, and first-degree attempted rape.
He attempted to enter the United States three times before successfully doing so in 2021 at the southern border, but managed to enter the U.S. as a «gotaway» at an unspecified time and location, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
During the Biden administration, there were hundreds of thousands of «known gotaways» by federal immigration authorities, including 670,674 in fiscal year 2023 alone.

«15-year-old Luis Lopez died trying to save his mother from this criminal illegal alien who was attempting to rape her. Gildardo Amandor-Martinez is a rapist and cold-blooded killer who should have never been in this country,» DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

«The Biden administration’s open-border policies allowed this monster to walk American streets and commit these evil crimes, including murder, assault, and attempted rape, against a mother and her children. ICE has placed an arrest detainer to ensure Amandor-Martinez will not be released onto America’s streets and allowed to terrorize American families again,» McLaughlin added.
Rowan County Senior High School mourned the loss of Lopez in a statement posted to Facebook.

«We are saddened to lose one of our own today. Luis was a sweet child who worked hard to do his best everyday at school,» the post stated. «We extend our deepest sympathies to everyone that loved Luis. Even though it is summertime, if a student or adult needs any assistance, our office is open each day from 8:00 to 3:00 this week where you can reach out.»

DHS says detainers are used to prevent the release of an individual behind bars before they can be transferred into the custody of federal authorities.
Jenny Frazier, communications director for the city of Morehead, told Fox News that the city is working with «state and federal partners» in the ongoing investigation.
«While it does remain an active investigation, we are pretty much directing all those specific questions concerning ICE to ICE themselves, but there is the decision on the detainer that is just at the discretion of the federal level. So the city of Moorhead is not involved with any of the enforcement,» she added.

Biden accuses Trump of erasing history and squandering US leadership role on global stage: ‘Dark days’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Former President Joe Biden on Friday accused President Donald Trump of attempting to «erase the truth» and squandering the United States’ role as the leader of the world.
«It’s not just my record Trump’s trying to erase,» Biden told South Carolina Democrats, while talking about the president’s efforts to get rid of the Affordable Care Act.
«He’s trying to erase fairness, equity, history, the truth,» he continued, citing incidents in which information about slavery has been removed or altered from museums and national parks since Trump took office.
«Great nations don’t bury the truth, Biden balked. «They face it. This is a great nation.»

Last summer, Trump wrote that «The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been — Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future.»
He also ordered a review of the Smithsonian to make sure its exhibits align with celebrating «American exceptionalism.»
Biden — the guest of honor at Friday’s «thank you» event organized by state Dems who helped resuscitate his presidential campaign six years ago — claimed the U.S. is currently living in «dark days.»

«Our future is literally on the line,» he said. «We have to be unapologetic about fighting for our country.»
Biden also issued a warning about the upcoming midterms, claiming that Trump is «trying to steal the election because he knows he can’t win your vote, so he’s going to do everything he can to prevent you from wanting to vote. … Mark my words. I hope I’m wrong.»
He said the more that voters see of Trump, the «less they like him.»

«They don’t like that he’s raising health care costs, fighting against the Affordable Care Act, and they sure as hell don’t like what they saw in Minnesota: Mass ICE agents pulling people out of their homes and literally murdering two people in the street,» he swiped.

Biden, 83, added, «They don’t believe the president should be king or dictator.»
He said because of this, Democrats are winning in places «you’d never expect.»

«So, we have reason to be hopeful, because time and again throughout history, in the moments of great crisis, Americans have summoned the better angels of our nature and brought our country back from the abyss.»
Biden also predicted that Democrats would take back both the Senate and House of Representatives in November.
Biden boasted that he knew more heads of state than any other president in history, adding, «Americans knew they had a president who believed in, respected and followed the Constitution.»
Citing a Pew Research Poll that he said showed a «dramatic drop in our reputation around the world,» he claimed, «We’re no longer the way we were.»
He added if the U.S. doesn’t lead the world, it could be Russia or China that does.

Biden also blasted Trump’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday for what he left out.
«The guy talks for almost two hours but never mentioned the anniversary of Putin invading Ukraine,» Biden admonished. «Never once.»
He also noted that the president didn’t mention Renee Good or Alex Pretti, the Americans who were killed by ICE agents earlier this year in Minneapolis, «or offer even a word of solace to their families.»

«He doesn’t offer a word of support, even recognition to Epstein’s victims sitting in front of him during the entire time,» Biden said, mentioning the Jeffrey Epstein survivors who were in the audience for the speech. «He never acknowledged them.»

Donald Trump dice que “no está contento” con las conversaciones con Irán y crecen los temores a un ataque de EE.UU.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) accused Everett, Washington, Mayor Cassie Franklin of escalating tensions with federal authorities after she issued a directive limiting immigration enforcement in the city.
Franklin issued a mayoral directive this week establishing citywide protocols for staff, including law enforcement, that restrict federal immigration agents from entering non-public areas of city buildings without a judicial warrant.
«We’ve heard directly from residents who are afraid to leave their houses because of the concerning immigration activity happening locally and across our country. It’s heartbreaking to see the impacts on Everett families and businesses,» Franklin said in a statement.
«With this directive, we are setting clear protocols, protecting access to services and reinforcing our commitment to serving the entire community.»
ICE blasted the directive Friday, writing on X it «escalates tension and directs city law enforcement to intervene with ICE operations at their own discretion,» thereby «putting everyone at greater risk.»

ICE said Franklin was directing city workers to «impede ICE operations and expose the location of ICE officers and agents.»
«Working AGAINST ICE forces federal teams into the community searching for criminal illegal aliens released from local jails — INCREASING THE FEDERAL PRESENCE,» the agency said. «Working with ICE reduces the federal presence.»
«If Mayor Franklin wanted to protect the people she claims to serve, she’d empower the city police with an ICE 287g partnership — instead she serves criminal illegal aliens,» ICE added.

During a city council meeting where she announced the policy, Franklin said «federal immigration enforcement is causing real fear for Everett residents.»
«It’s been heartbreaking to see the racial profiling that’s having an impact on Everett families and businesses,» she said. «We know there are kids staying home from school, people not going to work or people not going about their day, dining out or shopping for essentials.»
The mayor’s directive covers four main areas, including restricting federal immigration agents from accessing non-public areas of city buildings without a warrant, requiring immediate reporting of enforcement activity on city property and mandating clear signage to enforce access limits.

It also calls for an internal policy review and staff training, including the creation of an Interdepartmental Response Team and updated immigration enforcement protocols to ensure compliance with state law.
Franklin directed city staff to expand partnerships with community leaders, advocacy groups and regional governments to coordinate responses to immigration enforcement, while promoting immigrant-owned businesses and providing workplace protections and «know your rights» resources.
The mayor also reaffirmed a commitment to «constitutional policing and best practices,» stating that the police department will comply with state law barring participation in civil immigration enforcement. The directive outlines protocols for documenting interactions with federal officials, reviewing records requests and strengthening privacy safeguards and technology audits.
