<p>Days after a Virginia mother was allegedly fatally stabbed by an illegal immigrant with a lengthy rap sheet, Democrats in the state passed a series of bills to make the job of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) more difficult, limiting cooperation with local authorities.</p>
<p>Virginia House Democrats passed bills Wednesday that would cease local law enforcement cooperation with ICE, bar ICE from making arrests within 40 feet of the polls, ban ICE from nabbing targets inside state courts, and criminalize ICE officers for wearing masks, <a href="https://wjla.com/news/local/virginia-bills-ending-ice-cooperation-unmasking-agents-go-to-gov-spanberger-democrats-republicans-immigration-stephanie-minter-fairfax-county" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to ABC7.</p>
<p>Senate Democrats concurred, and the bills are now headed to Virginia Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger&#8217;s desk for signature.</p>
<p>It comes less than two weeks after Abdul Jalloh, 32, an illegal immigrant from Sierra Leone, allegedly murdered 41-year-old Virginia mother Stephanie Minter and left her lifeless body at a bus stop.</p>
<p>Upon entering office, Spanberger ended a required cooperation agreement between state and local law enforcement and ICE.</p>
<p>The day after the killing, the governor delivered the Democratic response to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech, where she characterized ICE as “unaccountable agents” who “terrorize our communities.”</p>
<p>ICE lodged a detainer with local police one day after Jalloh&#8217;s arrest, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Spanberger, however, said it wouldn&#8217;t be enough for local law enforcement to hand him over to immigration authorities for deportation.</p>
<p>Her office said ICE would need to obtain a warrant signed by a judge to receive any cooperation, according to ABC7.</p>
<p>Jalloh&#8217;s record includes more than 30 previous arrests for charges of rape, malicious wounding, assault, drug possession, identity theft, trespassing, larceny, firing a weapon, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and pickpocketing, according to DHS.</p>
<p>Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano dropped most of the charges against Jalloh, <a href="https://wjla.com/news/local/illegal-immigrant-with-long-criminal-record-accused-of-killing-woman-in-fairfax-county-abdul-emails-jalloh-stephanie-minter-commonwealths-attorney-steve-descano" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to ABC7.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Fairfax County police repeatedly warned Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano’s office about how dangerous Abdul Jalloh was before Stephanie Minter’s murder.</p>
<p>In November, a police major told Descano’s office, “Jenna, Good morning. I hope things are well. I wanted… <a href="https://t.co/ouqkJPgvPD">https://t.co/ouqkJPgvPD</a> <a href="https://t.co/E8bFmNMBuY">pic.twitter.com/E8bFmNMBuY</a></p>

<p>An officer with the Fairfax County Police Department also warned Descano in November against giving Jalloh more chances, according to emails obtained by ABC7 reporter Nick Minock via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.</p>
<p>“I wanted to bring Mr. Jalloh’s release to your attention, because Mr. Jalloh is one of the repeat (and violent) offenders we discussed when we met. I wanted to get your background on why he is out so soon and ask if his prior suspended sentence (of I believe five years) was pursued by your office,” the email read.</p>
<p>“Unfortunately, based on MTV station’s numerous dealings with him, it is not a question of if, but rather when he will maliciously wound (or worse) again. My role of keeping the public safe, prompts me to follow up on his status,” it added.</p>
