Sanctuary policies in Democrat-run states are dangerous and deadly.

An illegal alien who entered the US on Joe Biden’s open border invitation grabbed a 9-year-old girl from her bicycle and sexually assaulted her.

The violent assault occurred last week in Pingree Grove, Illinois.

According to Border Hawk News, the suspect, Janio Gionel Velasquez-Muro, illegally entered the US from Venezuela in 2022.

Janio Gionel Velasquez-Muro grabbed the little girl as she was riding her bicycle, shoved her into a car, and sexually assaulted her.

Records reviewed by Border Hawk News reveal the victim has severe and profound intellectual disabilities.

Velasquez-Muro fled the scene but he was later arrested by law enforcement.

He is facing charges of aggravated kidnapping of a child, predatory criminal sexual assault, aggravated criminal sexual abuse, and sexual exploitation of a child.
