The White House has expressed its deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old mother of five who was brutally raped and murdered near a Maryland hiking trail in August. The suspect, 23-year-old Victor Antonio Martinez Hernandez, a native of El Salvador who entered the U.S. illegally, has been arrested in connection with the heinous crime.
Similarly, the recent murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, 22, near Oconee Forest Park in Athens, Georgia, has raised concerns. The suspect in that case, José Antonio Ibarra, a 26-year-old native of Venezuela who also entered the U.S. illegally, remains at large.
