DHS Slams Fairfax County District Attorney’s Office for Offering Insane 5-Year Plea Deal to Two Illegal Alien Murderers

We are calling on Governor Spanberger and Fairfax sanctuary politicians to not release these criminals from jail back into Virginia communities to commit more crimes and create more victims

WASHINGTON - Today, the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) condemned the Fairfax County District Attorney's Office for offering two convicted illegal alien murderers, Maldin Anibal Guzman-Videz and Luis Alonzo Sort-Portillo, an insane plea deal after the two stabbed a man to death in Fairfax County in 2024. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) requested Fairfax not release these two monsters from jail back onto American streets.

According to local reporting, Portillo and Guzman killed a man at a popular park and walking trail in Oakton, Virginia in July 2024. A community member found the victim's bloodied body in the wooded area, and called the local police.

In 2019, a judge issued Guzman a final order of removal against the Honduran illegal alien, but he remained in the country. He went on to allegedly commit a series of crimes including four arrests for assault, malicious wounding, failure to appear, larceny, and obstruction of justice. According to local reports, Guzman previously robbed a local Greek family restaurant, and was charged with malicious wounding after he assaulted someone with a knife.

ICE asked Fairfax sanctuary politicians to not release the criminal illegal alien from jail multiple times, but they refused to cooperate with ICE and released this criminal back in the community to perpetrate more crimes.

The second murderer, Portillo, is from El Salvador. He entered the country illegally at an unknown date and time.

"This 5-year sweetheart plea deal for murder is insane. This is yet another example of Fairfax sanctuary politicians siding with criminal illegal aliens over U.S. citizens," said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. "We are calling on Fairfax Country sanctuary politicians and Governor Abigail Spanberger to commit to not releasing these murderers from jail back into our communities. How many more times must they release criminals into our neighborhoods to create more innocent victims?"

Fairfax County's sanctuary policies have made it a hot bed for illegal alien criminals.

So far in 2026, illegal aliens have allegedly committed 75% of all murders in the far-left county. Last week, ICE announced that it had lodged a detainer against Misael Lopez Gomez from Guatemala who allegedly bludgeoned his three-month old daughter to death. Lopez Gomez's arrest comes just one day after another illegal alien from Guatemala, Anibal Armando Chavarria Muy, was arrested for fatally stabbing a man in his home.

Earlier this year, an illegal alien from Sierra Leone, Abdul Jalloh, was arrested for fatally stabbing Stephanie Minter at a bus stop in Fredericksburg. Jalloh had more than 30 arrests prior to killing the American mother. ICE has lodged detainers for all three heinous criminal illegal aliens.
