Angel mom says blue state DAs are putting illegal immigrant criminals before public safety
Summary
Cheryl Minter is petitioning to remove Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano after her daughter, Stephanie Minter, 41, was fatally stabbed at a Hybla Valley bus stop on February 23. Prosecutors charged Abdul Jalloh, 32, with second-degree murder; he has not been convicted. DHS says Jalloh, a Sierra Leone national who entered the United States illegally, had been arrested more than 30 times. Minter blames prior release decisions and Descano’s immigration-related plea policy, while a Justice Department investigation and congressional subpoena examine the office’s practices without announcing conclusions.
