Video Migrant deported seven times drags ICE officer with car Charles Marino, former DHS advisor, warns of rising hostility toward law enforcement after a Mexican national with seven previous deportations is arrested for dragging an ICE officer with a vehicle in Chicago Heights, Illinois. Marino also addresses a tragic migrant truck crash in Jackson County, highlighting the ongoing consequences of border security failures on local communities.
An illegal immigrant truck driver was charged after allegedly causing a crash in Missouri that left a mother and her two young sons dead.
Eldar Skander, 39, was charged with three counts of first-degree involuntary manslaughter in connection with a crash in Kansas City, Missouri, on Monday, according to a news release from the Jackson County Prosecutor's Office. A GoFundMe page identified the victims as 35-year-old Olga Sorbalo and her two children, 4-year-old Samir and 8-year-old Luis.
Sorbalo's husband, Liviu Sorbalo, as well as their youngest child, survived the crash, according to the fundraiser. Prosecutors said a total of six other people were transported to a nearby hospital with serious injuries.

Daniel Cosovan, Olga's brother, told KGW8 the family was headed to the airport to catch a flight back home to Washington.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said in a post on X that Skander is a Ukrainian illegal immigrant who was released into the country under the Biden administration.
"Reckless open-border policies have resulted in countless preventable tragedies. Three more innocent American lives were lost. Two children who will never get to grow up, and a mother who will never get to watch them grow," ICE said. "These deaths were tragic and preventable. No other family should have to endure this loss. This is our WHY."

As traffic slowed to a stop, prosecutors said the Volvo semi-truck driven by Skander continued at a "high rate of speed" before striking a black Honda Odyssey, triggering a chain-reaction crash. Prosecutors said investigators found no evidence that Skander applied the truck's emergency brakes before the collision.

A tablet with YouTube open was found on the floorboard of the semi-truck, prosecutors said.
Jail records indicate Skander has a $150,000 bond and also has an ICE detainer. The address on Skander's criminal complaint indicates he resides in Chicago, Illinois.

Duffy said the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has launched an investigation into the company that hired Skander as a truck driver, as well as how Illinois issued him a commercial driver’s license.
According to the fundraiser set up by Olga's family, the family is from Vancouver, Washington.
