gang members: If he had been deported, the sheriff said, Cpl, according to CTV. Ronil Singh of the tiny Newman Police Department would still be alive. The sheriff leading the investigation blamed California's sanctuary law for preventing local authorities from reporting Gustavo Perez Arriaga to U.S. immigration officials for two previous drunken driving arrests. We can't ignore the fact that this could have been preventable, Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson told reporters, asking why the state was providing sanctuary for criminals and gang members. Following a statewide manhunt, Perez Arriaga was arrested on a murder warrant in a house near Bakersfield, about 200 miles 320 kilometres southeast of where Singh was shot Wednesday.
