Welcome to Roy Cooper’s Worst of the Worst Wednesday.
Jasmine Rodriguez Villareal is an illegal from Mexico who was arrested and indicted for three counts of trafficking opium and heroin.
ICE placed multiple detainers on Villareal.
But despite her convictions and multiple ICE detainers, Villareal was let back out onto the streets thanks to Roy Cooper turning North Carolina into a sanctuary state and his soft-on-crime regime.
Several of the charges against Villareal were dismissed without leave by the Democrat District Attorney appointed by Roy Cooper, allowing her to walk free.
Under Roy Cooper’s failed leadership, between 2017 through 2024, there were 26,186 overdose deaths in North Carolina, with the overdose death rate spiking higher under Cooper than in any year since 2010.
“Villareal should have been locked up and deported, but Roy Cooper’s sanctuary policies and soft-on-crime regime allowed this dangerous criminal to continue injecting poison into North Carolina’s communities,” said NRSC Regional Press Secretary Nick Puglia.
