ICE served a detainer on the jail, but state sanctuary laws prohibited Merced officials from holding Mora-Rojas or communicating with ICE about his release, so the illegal immigrant walked out of jail on a $15,000 bond. On February 23, 2022, Mora-Rojas was arrested Merced County about 115 miles south of Sacramento for driving under the influence, assaulting a police officer, and assaulting medical staff.In April 2021, the mother of his three children obtained a restraining order against him after a domestic violence incident, according to the Sacremento County Sheriff’s Office, which confirms that the order specifically states Mora-Rojas cannot own or possess firearms or ammunition.Officials say 39-year-old David Mora-Rojas, a Mexican man, had just been released from jail five days before he committed the brutal murders of his family at a Sacramento church.Ĭalifornia's sanctuary laws, known as the TRUTH Act and the California Values Act, essentially protect illegal immigrant offenders from being turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for deportation.Īccording to a Judicial Watch report, the Golden State's sanctuary laws protected Mora-Rojas from deportation after at least two encounters with the law: Just months after Sacramento, California Sheriff Scott Jones was suedfor reporting illegal immigrant criminals to federal authorities, an illegal immigrant criminal shot and killed his own wife and three daughters, before shooting himself in Sacramento.
