Outrage over assault on illegal immigrant after release

Outrage over assault on illegal immigrant after release

**Outrage** erupts when illegal immigrant in Virginia, Denis Humberto Naverrete Romero, was arrested for attempted rape just days after being released from prison.

This shocking incident has renewed concerns about public safety and immigration policy in the state.

Romero, a 31-year-old from Honduras, is accused of abducting and sexually assaulting a woman on a busy trail in Herndon.

Herndon Police Chief Maggie DeBoard expressed outrage, noting that this was the first stranger rape reported in her twelve years on the force.

Romero’s criminal history is disturbing: multiple arrests for sexual assault, weapons charges and auto theft.

Despite his extensive criminal record, local authorities released him back into the community early.

Gov. Glenn Youngkin condemned the decision to release Romero, calling the situation “disheartening” and “outraged” by the reckless behavior of court officials.

DeBoard noted a disturbing trend of repeat offenders who, despite long criminal records, are still released back onto the streets.

The victim bravely faced the attacker and sought help, while the community is left struggling with the consequences of lax law enforcement and inadequate protection of citizens.

The incident raises critical questions about the effectiveness of state policy in dealing with illegal immigrants and recidivists.

Amid growing safety concerns, many are calling for stronger measures to ensure that those who pose a threat to public safety are held accountable and kept off the streets.
