A woman who is on video attacking ICE agents during an operation in Fort Myers, Florida last week was finally arrested after a multi-day search.
Maria Del Carmen Negrete Raya was taken into custody early Thursday morning. She is an illegal alien from Mexico and filed an asylum application in 2023.
On August 19, ICE initiated a traffic stop on a car that was registered to a non-U.S. citizen. According to Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, Negrete Raya, among others, confronted the ICE agents when the car’s occupants ran away. Negrete Raya kicked and punched agents when she attempted to enter the agents’ vehicle. One agent was hit in the groin.
Negrete Raya is being charged with three counts of battery on a Law Enforcement Officer, in violation of Florida Statute 784.07(2)(b). Once the charges are reclassified, they will be second-degree felonies due to her status an as illegal alien. She faces up to 15 years in prison per count.
“Florida will not tolerate anyone — especially those who shouldn’t even be in our country — attacking our law enforcement officers,” said Uthmeier. “Our federal partners are here to enforce the law and defend America’s sovereignty. Those who assault them will face the full weight of the law.”
Agencies involved in this case include the Florida Highway Patrol, ICE, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, and the Office of Statewide Prosecution.
I hope this is showing up on X.
Actions have consequences. The Liberal Media and Middle Aged White Women continue to get so many people in trouble with their incessant anti american rhetoric. We should not be tolerating this type of resistance. It should be met with extreme force. We are tired of these behaviors.
