Thanks to Gavin Newsom – Criminal Illegal Alien Kills Six People in Drunk Driving Collision After California Authorities Ignore ICE Detainer | The Gateway Pundit | by David Greyson

On September 7th, a tragic incident involving an illegal immigrant highlights the potential consequences of lenient policy enforcement. Six individuals lost their lives in a drunk driving accident, a fact made public by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) this week.

Beto Cerillo-Bialva, a Mexican national without legal status, has been charged with murder following an alcohol-fueled crash that not only resulted in the deaths of six passengers but also left another severely injured.

This incident raises profound questions about accountability, particularly considering that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had previously issued a detainer after Cerillo-Bialva’s third DUI arrest. Unfortunately, this request was overlooked by California law enforcement, an action some attribute to the state’s progressive policies under Governor Gavin Newsom.

Cerillo’s legal troubles were extensive, with a criminal record that included multiple DUIs, domestic violence offenses, and possession of cocaine, alongside a staggering seven deportations from the United States. Each time, he managed to return, seemingly mocking the system that repeatedly tried to keep him out.

DHS Reported:

In a statement from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), it was disclosed that Beto Cerillo-Bialva, after drunkenly colliding with a tree on September 7, 2025, has been charged with murder. The crash resulted in the deaths of six of his passengers and serious injury to another. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had issued an arrest detainer upon his third DUI but, regretfully, California’s policies do not comply with these federal requests.

Despite the detainer following Cerillo-Bialva’s DUI incidents in 2024, local authorities opted not to act.

Cerillo-Bialva’s criminal history includes several felonies, notably involving cocaine possession, previous DUIs, driving without a valid license, and violations related to domestic violence restraining orders.

“This serial criminal killed six innocent souls. Governor Newsom has blood on his hands. This individual should never have been allowed to roam free in California,” remarked Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. She emphasized that sanctuary policies tend to protect the most dangerous offenders. “ICE will exert every effort to remove this repeat violent offender from our country,” she stated in an alarming wake-up call for policymakers.

Regardless of California’s stance on sanctuary policies, DHS remains resolved to focus on deportation efforts. Tricia McLaughlin asserted during an appearance on Fox Business that millions of undocumented immigrants have been deported or have left voluntarily.

“We currently possess the most secure border in American history, which has enhanced our law enforcement’s ability to conduct these arrests,” McLaughlin explained.

“As a result, two million illegal aliens have exited the country—around 500,000 through official deportation and 1.6 million through self-deportation,” she elaborated, presenting a somewhat optimistic view amidst a tragic event.
