The suspected arsonist, Jesus Fabian Gonzalez, is an illegal alien who has already been
deported twice
ICE says it issued
5 (five) detainer requests for him in the past year alone, including this latest one for the arson. But Sonoma County is a
sanctuary jurisdiction. Which means it does not cooperate with federal immigration officials on ICE detainer requests.
Acting Director Tom Homan of Immigration and Customs Enforcement says --
“ICE was never notified of Mr. Gonzalez’ various releases.”
This was the greatest wildfire in California history
