If you’re wondering where the progressive outrage is over crimes committed by migrants, there is none.

As the Herald reported, Haitian immigrant Cory Alvarez, accused of raping a child at an immigrant shelter in Rockland, has been released on $500 bail ahead of ICE agents who wanted to take him into custody for possible deportation. He’s nowhere to be found.

The Plymouth court did not honor a detainer federal immigration officers filed and Alvarez was set free on $500 bail, the Herald was told.

This isn’t surprising, considering Massachusetts is also home to one Judge Shelley Joseph, who was charged with helping a twice-deported illegal immigrant evade federal immigrations officials in 2018. That was at the height of “sanctuary city” fever, when “Nobody should have to live in fear ” of being reported to ICE was the mantra du jour.

Six years later, and the migrant influx has cities and towns across the country at their breaking point, with disturbing news about what goes on at the border rolling out almost weekly.

The Department of Homeland Security has identified over 400 immigrants from Central Asia and elsewhere who crossed into the U.S. in the past three years as “subjects of concern” because they were brought by an ISIS-affiliated human smuggling network, three U.S. officials told NBC News.

While over 150 of them have been arrested, the whereabouts of over 50 remain unknown, the officials said.

Along with hardworking families look for a better life in America, border crossers have included gang members and individuals with criminal records. Some are arrested and deported, only to try again until they succeed.

Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, was brutalized and murdered in Houston, allegedly by two Venezuelan migrants who were released into the US earlier this year. The New York Post reported on Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas’  press conference this week, in which he responded to a question about Nungaray’s case with:

“We screen and vet individuals when we encounter them.”

Border agents called bull. “I don’t know what Mayorkas is smoking because it needs to be legalized,” one Border Patrol source told The Post.

Whatever you do, don’t blame President Biden’s border policy for making it easy for bad actors to commit crimes, even those as heinous as rape and murder. He may have opened the door, but it’s not his fault if violent criminals walk in.

“The individual who is responsible for a heinous criminal act is the criminal,” Mayorkas said.

So everything’s fine, as least as far as the Biden Administration is concerned, as well as its media allies who discredit news of migrant crimes as fearmongering.

No one should have to live in fear — not migrant women and children in shelters targeted by sexual predators, and not families who wonder where the accused rapists fled to once they were bailed out and evaded ICE agents.

The vast majority of those who’ve made the trek to America want to improve their lives and obey our laws, but it’s the gangs, criminals and terror watchlist denizens among them who are doing real damage.

It can’t be swept under the rug, and Mayorkas should be ashamed of trying to do so.
