Rachel Morin's Mother Warns of 'War on Our Soil'

Four mothers of children who have been killed, allegedly at the hands of illegal immigrants, warned Congress on Wednesday that the situation is getting worse and could lead to a "war."

On Tuesday, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing, "The Biden-Harris Border Crisis: Victim Perspectives," and sought to "examine the effects of the Biden-Harris administration's open borders policies on American families and communities."

In attendance at the hearing were Patty Morin, Tammy Nobles, Anne Fundner, and Alexis Nungaray, whose children were killed, as reported by the New York Post.

Rep. Dan Bishop, R-N.C., asked Patty Morin, whose daughter Rachel Morin was raped and killed, allegedly by Victor Martinez Hernandez, "Do you think it's worse, and do you think it can get even worse than it is now?"

Patty Morin replied, "I think if things continue, we're going to have a war on our soil."

Bishop opened his remarks by saying, "This crisis is deadly. It's unsustainable and only getting worse. And it was all completely avoidable."

Nobles, whose daughter Kayla Hamilton was raped in killed in 2022 by Walter Javier Martinez, for which he was convicted, said, "We're seeing more and more cases every day — a lot, way too many."

Both Patty Morin and Noble's daughters were slain in Maryland. Patty Morin said in her testimony that people want to ignore what's happening in the country.

"I was just telling one of the gentlemen that I was at the border. I met some folks at the border. I saw who lives at the border," she said.

"I was also up in New England a week ago, and I was surprised at the amount of immigrants from the Congo and from Sudan and from South America in northern New England. That's unheard of. In Massachusetts, they've spent over $1.5 billion."

During the hearing, Bishop scolded Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., for laughing out loud when Bishop recounted names of those killed, and Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., appeared to be sleeping through some of the hearing, according to the Post.

Alexis Nungaray's 12-year-old daughter, Jocelyn Nungaray, was found strangled to death in Houston. She agreed with the others that things are getting worse.

"It will continue to get worse if we do not use every detention center and facility bed to detain them until their immigration court hearings to confirm and make sure for us U.S. citizens that we will be safe with letting new individuals in this country, because they're taking our future, our children," she said.
