Pedro Luis Parra Pulgar, the migrant accused of setting his house on fire with his three children inside, was criticized in an X post by Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Monday.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott recently lambasted the migrant who allegedly tried killing his children in a house fire, and vowed to work with President-elect Trump's incoming 'border czar' to enforce law and order. Pedro Luis Parra Pulgar, 46, was recently charged with three counts of attempted murder over a Nov. 6 incident at his home. The migrant allegedly set his Fulshear, Texas, home on fire while his three children were inside. It is unclear whether Pulgar immigrated to the U.S.
Venezuelan immigrant – legal status unknown – is accused of setting a Texas house on fire with three children inside,' Abbott's post read. 'He better spend the rest of his life behind bars.' The Texas Republican also pledged to work with the incoming Trump administration to deport criminal migrants. 'I will work with Tom Homan to locate & deport as many of these criminals as we can,' Abbott continued.
