Black Illegal Immigrant Arrested For Killing Entire Family Recorded As ‘White’ In Crime Stats
An illegal immigrant from the Dominican Republic entered the U.S. undeterred despite being already wanted for murder in his home country — only to horrifically stab to death a family of four, including two toddlers, in upstate New York, authorities said.
Police in Irondequoit, a Rochester suburb, said Julio Cesar Pimentel-Soriano was arrested earlier this month. On August 31 at 5 a.m., authorities responded to a house fire and found that the family had been killed and the home set on fire.
Irondequoit Police Chief Scott Peters said that in 32 years on the job, he had never seen anyone commit such a heinous crime in the town.
The police said Soriano is 34 years old and was wanted in Dominican Republic for a 2019 murder; entered Puerto Rico illegally and obtained a fraudulent New York ID, then came to New York. They said they are also looking for another individual in relation to the deaths.
Despite being a black-skinned Hispanic illegal immigrant, Soriano was listed in the Monroe County Jail roster with a race of white.
Deputy Brendan Hurley, a spokesman for the Monroe County Sheriff, told The Daily Wire that the arresting police filled out the race report, and, “The New York State Division of Criminal Justice provides guidance on Racial Designations,” which say that “White” is “A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East,” and “Black” is “A person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa.”
There is no flag for Hispanic status in the census, meaning Soriano appears indistinguishable from a white American in the demographic statistics.
Democrats have often been accused of manipulating statistics to undercount illegal immigrant crime and claim that “white supremacy domestic terrorism” is the biggest threat to the country. In one case, the FBI suggested a Hispanic man who called a judge a “cracker” was a white supremacist.
Asked if there is an Immigrations and Customs Enforcement detainer request on Soriano, he said, “There is a detainer on file. Per NYS case law, we can only enforce detainers signed by a judge.”
