“This suspect…is in our country illegally. He doesn’t belong here. He is a criminal. We will find him, we will arrest him, we will bring him to justice.” – Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson

As much as they probably hated to admit it, the thug who murdered a police officer during a traffic stop this week is in our country illegally.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again…The death of this police officer was 100% preventable.

A manhunt is on for the unidentified “armed and dangerous” killer of Newnan police Cpl. Ronil Singh (PICTURED BELOW) who was only 33-years-old.

Can you imagine how you would feel if you knew this thug was here illegally AND was being protected by the sanctuary city laws?

The suspect in the shooting was stopped for a possible DUI and the engaged in a gunfight with Officer Singh who had been with the department since 2011.

“There is right now a full-scale manhunt going on in California for an illegal immigrant accused of shooting and killing a police officer during a traffic stop,” Trump tweeted. “Time to get tough on Border Security. Build the Wall!”
