NEW: ICE has lodged an immigration detainer against a 31-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador accused of distributing fentanyl near a Virginia school.

According to ICE, Isaac Melendez-Carranza was arrested by the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office on August 20th and charged with:
•Possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance within 1,000 feet of a school.
•Possession with intent to manufacture, sell or distribute fentanyl.

ICE says Melendez-Carranza illegally entered the United States after wading across the Rio Grande from Mexico. Border Patrol encountered him near Hebbronville, Texas, in April 2016.

ICE Washington lodged an immigration detainer and warrant of removal the same day as his arrest. The Loudoun County Adult Detention Center honors ICE detainers under its 287(g) agreement, despite Virginia's sanctuary policies.

Thank you to Captain David Ollis of the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Rangers for joining me last night as we presented more than $49,000 to several youth organizations serving our local communities!

Giving back is at the heart of the Sheriff’s Rodeo. Thanks to the incredible support of our sponsors and everyone who purchases a ticket, we’re able to turn a great community event into an opportunity to make a real difference for local organizations and the young people they serve.

Thank you to everyone who helps make this possible year after year!

Today, we face one of the most difficult moments an agency can endure as we announce the loss of one of our own. Trooper Hayden Phillips, Unit 369, made the ultimate sacrifice while patrolling I-65 in Warren County. He was assigned to Post 3 Bowling Green and was a graduate of Cadet Class 103. His dedication to duty and commitment to the commonwealth will not
be forgotten.

Our hearts break for Trooper Phillips’ family, loved ones, and fellow troopers as we grieve this tremendous loss. We will carry his memory with us, honor the life he lived and the badge he wore, and stand together as an agency to support this family in the days ahead.

-Colonel Phillip Burnett, Jr.

🚨Authorities are searching for Branch, who is believed to be driving a 2025 bluish-gray Honda Civic with an Alabama temporary license plate bearing the number TN018596. The vehicle was last reported near northbound I-65 at mile marker 75.

The Hardin County Sheriff’s Office described Branch as a Black man with dreadlocks pulled into a bun on top of his head.

As the search continues, law enforcement agencies are increasing their presence throughout the area. The Bowling Green Police Department reported that northbound I-65 is closed at mile marker 30 and urged motorists to find alternate routes.

The Elizabethtown Police Department also announced increased law enforcement activity in and around Elizabethtown and throughout Hardin County. Residents are being urged to remain alert, secure their vehicles and homes, and avoid approaching the suspect.

Authorities consider Branch armed and dangerous. Anyone who sees him or the vehicle is urged to call 911 immediately.

BREAKING: Former Utah death row inmate Douglas Carter appeared in court to address his potential release more than 40 years after he was convicted of murder.

Carter, who was convicted in the 1985 murder of Eva Olesen, appeared before a Utah County judge on Monday less than a week after prosecutors dropped the death penalty. This was in response to new evidence showing that Carter's DNA did not match the DNA at the crime scene.

"Out of their ever-loving minds."

A voter may not love every Republican move, but Carl Higbie looks at the Democrat alternative: a re-run of the Biden era, degrading the U.S. way of life to coddle non-English speaking, potentially volatile illegals.
