Twice-deported Guatemalan rapist roams free after liberal county ignores ICE detainer | 17 July 2025 | The release of a twice-deported rapist in Virginia is putting renewed focus on the dangers posed by Democratic-led sanctuary policies that limit cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Guatemala national David Cabrera was collared by ICE last week after being set free by sanctuary-aligned jurisdiction Arlington County, which refused to honor a federal detainer and released him without notifying ICE. In a video obtained by Fox News, Cabrera is seen roaming a local street before ICE agents initiate his arrest. Cabrera entered the U.S. illegally in 2014 and was convicted of felony rape in 2015. He was sentenced to more than seven years in prison, although a portion of it was suspended.
