Virginia corrections officers stabbed in attack involving illegal MS-13 gangbangers

The latest MS-13 gang incident sent five to the hospital after illegal aliens were involved in a “premeditated stabbing” — behind bars.

While increasingly damning evidence had found leftists and tamping down their affections for MS-13-linked “Maryland Man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia, globalist inclinations had not been swayed. Friday, an incident that left multiple Virginia Department of Corrections officers stabbed by incarcerated illegals exposed emphasized the threats to society that the open borders crowd were defending.

Details of the attack that occurred before 10 a.m. at Wallens Ridge State Prison in Big Stone, Virginia, were provided in a press release from VADOC Director Chad Dotson shared across social media.

It was explained that of the six inmates allegedly involved, five were confirmed MS-13 gang members who were illegal aliens from El Salvador, convicted of violent crimes. The other was said to be from the United States and was a confirmed member of the Sureño 13 gang, convicted of second-degree murder.

“Five of the individuals responsible for this senseless attack should never have been in this country in the first place,” said Dotson.

“Every single day, our officers put their lives on the line to ensure public safety for the more than 8.8 million people across the Commonwealth. This attack is an example of the dangers they face when they show up to work every day,” he continued as the MS-13 members’ convictions included murder and rape. “Our officers are heroes, and I commend the team at Wallens Ridge for their swift response.”

Of the five officers who were transported for medical treatment, two were admitted to the hospital in stable condition. The other three had been discharged, including two who had minor injuries from the attack.

The latest example of MS-13 brutality came as leftists’ defense of Abrego Garcia looked increasingly unhinged in the face of audio of the Salvadoran national’s wife “explaining how she was physically beaten” by her husband, who was featured in bodycam footage during the 2022 traffic stop where he was allegedly involved in human trafficking.

All the while, activists had continued their court-shopping crusade to prevent President Donald Trump’s administration from mass deportations, shouting “due process” for even those leaving tragedies in their wake.

Early Saturday morning, the president took to Truth Social, slamming those impeding efforts to restore law and order to the country and wrote, “Can it be so that Judges aren’t allowing the USA to Deport Criminals, including Murderers, out of our Country and back to where they came from? If this is so, our Country, as we know it, is finished! Americans will have to get used to a very different, crime filled, LIFE. This is not what our Founders had in mind!!!”

Likewise, social media users shared their own thoughts about the VADOC stabbing, including asking if Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D) would have similar “emotional support” for the incarcerated MS-13 gang members that he showed for Abrego Garcia.

Great Question. Chris be consistent

Let’s see how much the Dems do for the 3 Corrections Officers.

Time to move all the Salvadoran illegal MS-13 gang members back to their home country of El Salvador. Any Democrat in Congress, voters or any in leftwing media who disagree with this should be forced to house these violent criminals at their homes.
