The nation has been rocked by the news that Ruby Garcia, age 25, was shot and killed in Grand Rapids over the weekend. Her body was found on US-131 and Leonard Street.
Brandon Ortiz-Vite, also age 25, has been charged with her murder. He is a citizen of Mexico and an illegal alien.
He is currently booked in the Kent County jail and could face up to life in prison.
As of this writing, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Attorney General Dana Nessel have offered no statement on the matter. NONE. Not even a note of sympathy for Ruby's family.
The residents of Michigan have a right to know what public safety measures the senior members of the Whitmer administration will enact to prevent this from happening to another woman - be she a wife, daughter, sister, grandmother, aunt.
Conversely, Commissioner Chuck Laughbaum wants to declare Emmet County to be a non-sanctuary county to discourage the federal and state government from sending illegals to the County. Beginning at the 1:13 mark, listen here.
Great idea, Commissioner! RIP Ruby Garcia.
