Detroit News politics editor Chad Livengood said Republicans have 'found the crime they were seeking' with illegal migrant Brandon Ortiz-Vite being charged with murder.

Michigan Republicans could 'seize' on illegal migrants committing crimes, a local editor warned on Monday. Detroit News politics editor and columnist Chad Livengood argued that the GOP has 'found the crime they were seeking' in the recent murder of Michigan woman Ruby Garcia allegedly at the hands of her boyfriend, illegal migrant Brandon Ortiz-Vite.

Yob and other Republican strategists see the deaths of Garcia and Gomez as something to politically seize on, despite studies showing illegal immigrants have a low homicide conviction rate. Yob argues that the localized crimes will hit home in west Michigan, fundamentally changing the dynamics of the presidential election in Trump's favor,' Livengood wrote. Meanwhile, Livengood highlighted Democrats such as Rep. Hillary Scholten, D-Mich.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesperson confirmed that Ortiz-Vite was in the country illegally at the time of Garcia's death and that he was previously deported to Mexico in 2020. House Republicans have criticized President Biden’s border policies and the administration’s refusal to act after reports of Garcia's death.
