Summary
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged a detainer against Mauricio Josue Alberto Sarmiento, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, who is accused of a hit-and-run that resulted in the death of James Robert Bagley III in Sylva, North Carolina. Sarmiento, who entered the U.S. illegally in 2021 as an unaccompanied minor, was arrested five days after the incident and faces multiple charges, with DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin criticizing the Biden administration's border policies in connection to the case.
