Chicago Mayor Defends Sanctuary Policy That Led To Rape Of A Toddler

ICE is working to defend Americans from criminals, but they are greatly hindered by Sanctuary Cities that refuse to hold illegals accountable for their actions. These sanctuary cities are putting the welfare of criminals in front of the safety of Americans and there is no excuse. Chicago had a horrific example of just what can happen in a recent case where Christopher Puente, 34, raped a toddler.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is on the defensive this weekend after Immigrations and Customs Enforcement announced that a convicted felon, now facing charges of sexually assaulting a toddler in a downtown Chicago McDonalds bathroom, was supposed to have been turned over to ICE and deported — and had been deported before.

“ICE said in a news release Thursday [Christopher] Puente was placed into Chicago police custody in June of 2019 after he was arrested for theft,” according to a Chicago ABC affiliate. “According to ICE, Chicago police were expected to hold Puente until he could be taken into their custody, as Puente was expected to be deported.”

Because Chicago is a so-called “Sanctuary City” and has lenient bail policies, Puente was released back into the community.

Puente is now charged with raping a 3-year-old girl in the bathroom of Chicago’s landmark “Rock & Roll McDonalds,” a major tourist destination just north of the city’s downtown…”

How many more victims must there be before lawmakers realize that sanctuary policies do not protect the innocent?” asked Robert Guadian, director of the Chicago field office for ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations. “Puente should have been in ICE custody last year and removed to his home country. Instead, irresponsible lawmaking allowed him to walk free and prey on our most vulnerable.”

Lightfoot accused ICE of playing politics with the Puente case as retaliation after her recent criticism of the agency’s aggressive tactics targeting undocumented immigrants. The mayor said she had a pointed conversation with the head of the agency last week, after ICE arrested another immigrant, 34-year-old Julio Torres, in front of his daughter and her classmates earlier this month as he was dropping her off at school.

“If ICE is complaining, then they should do their job better, and they shouldn’t do things that are traumatizing young children. That’s not acceptable, and I was very clear and blunt about that. How is that right?” Lightfoot said.”

Julio Torres was here illegally, so Lightfoot is upset that they were not more tactful about the arrest. I think releasing a criminal that rapes a 3-year-old is far worse than embarrassing a criminal and his family. I mean it’s hurt feelings versus a life long trauma on a child. How can Lightfoot even think these incidents compare?

  • How can you defend a child rapist? How do you defend being a Sanctuary city? Damn, who cares about their own citizens.

  • Grabbing an illegal in front of his daughter teaches the child that laws must be obeyed or you will be arrested..its as simple as that!

  • Sue the city and definitely sue the mayor individually. He deliberately did the sanctuary City BS, knowing the potential risk, so he can’t hide behind his office and say “I didn’t know.” SUE HIM!!!

    • Exactly what I thought when I read the next to last paragraph. Also Ice should do a better job for crying out loud. Lady you are the one breaking the law and preventing Ice from doing their job you ignorant woman!!!

  • Make it a point, that anyone who does anything to protect the illegals, #1, those persons who want to be lenient to illegals will be charged with their crimes. #2, where rape or murder or any other illegal activity is perpetrated by an illegal, then those actions of the illegal are to be done to those who are lenient to them. Yes, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Illegal alien rapes a three year old, or any child, or adult, those trying to protect them, get the same thing, they or one of their own gets the same treatment. As for the person arrested in front of their kids, they may come from a country where rule of law is ignored, that is not the case here. if Lightfoot wants to ignore the rule of law, then she should not be protected by the rule of law. What ever comes her way, oh well, she wanted to ignore the rule of law, then she, and the rest of her family suffers the same way, no rule of law to protect them.

    • We should at least be able to charge the mayor as an accessory to the crime…. every crime committed by any illegal alien that the city, county, state has set free to commit more crimes.

  • Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is a demented leftist Democrat. She defends the perversions of an illegal invader out of reflex. American is awakening to the perverse radicalization of Democrats and those with sound minds are leaving.

  • SHE SHOULD BE ARRESTED FOR HARBORING A KNOWN CRIMINAL !!!!! NOT ONE DEMON RAT HAS BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE CRIMINAL ELEMENTS THEY HAVE RELEASED ON INNOCENT AMERICAN CITIZENS !!!! SO F K N SICK OF THESE COMMIE BA***RDS !!!!!

    • AMEN!!! these commie BA***RDS need to have the same thing done to them and then toss them into jail … ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF THESE LAW BREAKING ILLEGAL ALIENS!!!!
      GOD HELP US ALL IF A DEMOCRAT GETS INTO THE WHITE HOUSE.. THEY WILL ALLOW MORE AND MORE OF THEM TO FLOOD OUR COUNTRY WHILE AMERICAN PEOPLE PAY TO SUPPORT THEM…

  • Just back the President’s new Policy (I don’t know why he didn’t do this sooner) of taking their Federal Money away! When they feel it in the pocketbook they’ll think again about this ridiculous “sanctuary city law”. I really don’t see what the Left gains by protecting illegals…..everyone HAS got to be AGAINST this policy except a few bleeding hearts

    • He has tried to do it for a couple of years but the lower federal courts kept blocking him. He finally got a court decision in favor of We the People and not They the Criminal Invaders.

  • I’m sure Lightfoot is really blaming the mother. If she would have had an abortion none of this would have happened, would it Madam Mayor? Everyone knows babies exist to be aborted and when they aren’t, poor monsters like Puente are teased by those toddlers who actually want to be raped. Isn’t that the democrat party way of viewing things?

  • When did America go to this insanity that doesn’t protect the good people from the misfits that are destroying the fabric of America. Why can states cause problems that spread like the Australia fires. This must be stopped.

  • This B*T*H needs to be removed from office.. this is OUTRAGEOUS… I would not blame the father of this toddler if he ripped this pathetic loser of a mayor, a new one… She cares MORE about that illegal alien criminal than she does that little 3 year toddler…
    that father needs to sue this lunatic for what happened to his daughter… this rape was 100% avoidable had this illegal alien criminal remained out of this country…
    ENOUGH IS ENOUGH GIVING THESE ILLEGAL ALIENS PROTECTION AGAINST OUR LAWS!!!!! ANYONE who protects and harbors these illegal alien criminals, need to be removed from office and sent to jail…

  • These treasonous hypocrite libs(lying sack of Schiff) don’t know the meaning of the truth! They are at it again and just as mentally deranged as the rest of the Globalists NAZI Muslim Commie Liberal Demoncrats! Deep State, Pelosi, Waters, Schumer, Hollywood, Academia, Fake News, Swamp News and you know the rest!! ‪Expose, Boycott, Sue, prosecute and bring to justice all these lying Fake News deep state treasonous Godless NAZI commie liberal demoncrats and RINOs (Mutt Romney, Susan Collins, Lindsey Grahams ,Murkowski, Justice Roberts, Bolton and you know the rest of the traitors) post-haste,Patriots! Drain the rat infested swamp President Trump!‬

  • This is wrong! If immigrants come here they must abide by our laws. They Mayor needs to find
    another line of work. How can she look in the mirror knowing that this is going on? We need to unite
    and get rid of these “sanctuary” cities.

  • Every Gov & Mayor harboring illegals should be arrested & put in prison. They are breaking Federal Immigration Laws & obstructing justice by not cooperating with ICE! Maybe this moronic Mayor would change her mind, if she or her grandchild was raped, assaulted, &/or murdered!

  • The parents of that child need to SUE the City of Chicago and Mayor Lightfoot into OBLIVION …..

  • What do you expect from these ignorant politicians? I wish to GOD that Chicago and the five counties around it would be made into another state and leave the rest of us normal people alone. They vote these jerks into office and the rest of us have to suffer the consequences of their mistakes.

  • Generally, if a thug kills someone in the commission of a crime, that thugs accomplices are charged with the murder as well. The same thing needs to happen to mayors, governors, judges, congressmen, senators and anyone else involved with letting those lowlife fools go.

  • Under President Trump, best economy in decades, lowest unemployment numbers for Blacks,Hispanics,Asians EVER (women in 15years)lowest unemployment ever. With full transparency and honesty! Which you never saw with pass Presidents. Excluding 1 or two. The list is endless. Best president ever, President! Keep America Great! The unstoppable KAG train full steam ahead to 2020 and beyond!

  • So Mayor, you would place the welfare and well being of your constituents subordinate to what you individually and politically deem FAIR to illegal criminals who infiltrate our country?

  • I hope whatever dyke girlfriend she straps it onto is attacked and brutilized by another illegal in your Sh>>cago city
