Illegal Alien Sanctuary Montgomery County MD Lashes Out at Trump and Critics After Seven Illegals Arrested for Rape Last Month

The Montgomery County Council issued a blistering statement Thursday night attacking President Trump, Ken Cuccinelli and conservative media–lumping them in with neo-Nazis–over reports and criticism of the sanctuary county over an illegal alien rape spree this past month that has seen at least seven illegal aliens arrested for rape in the county with most of the victims being children. Montgomery County is located in Maryland but is considered a Washington, D.C. suburb.

Montgomery County is committed to building and maintaining a safe and inclusive community for our residents. Understanding, tolerance, and respect are hallmarks of Montgomery County. Social justice for all is what we strive to achieve in our County.

Rape and sexual assault are despicable acts of violence and aggression that unfortunately occur across all cultures and communities. As local elected officials, public safety has and will always be our top priority. Montgomery County has a Victim Assistance and Sexual Assault Program that aids rape and sexual assault survivors in our community, and we fully support the work of these programs.

The recent crimes of rape and the sexual assaults that have occurred in Montgomery County are horrendously vile acts, and the alleged perpetrators of these crimes are currently going through the legal process and will receive their judgements in court. The Montgomery County Police Department arrests and the State’s Attorney’s Office prosecutes individuals who commit violent criminal acts in our community. We rely on and support them as they work together to deliver justice to rape and sexual assault victims and their families.

There has been a lot inaccurate information spread by the White House, President Trump, Acting USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli, local and national conservative news outlets and neo-Nazi sympathizers regarding our criminal justice system and its process. These individuals and organizations should be ashamed for spreading false information seeking to establish a baseless, illogical and xenophobic connection between a person’s failure to obtain legal status and their propensity to commit a sex crime.

Montgomery County has earned a reputation as a great place to live, work and raise a family, not despite of, but because of who we are. We are teachers, scholars, scientists, engineers and our small businesses power the engines of our economy. We will not be defined by a racist paintbrush designed to stoke unreasonable fear and tensions in our county.

Two days ago the Montgomery County government issued an appeal for bi-lingual volunteers to help sex assault victims:

County Seeks Volunteers to Work with Victims of Sexual Assault
For Immediate Release: Tuesday, September 3, 2019

Volunteers are needed to assist sexual assault victims and their families through the Victim Assistance and Sexual Assault Program (VASAP) of the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services. Interviews are currently being conducted for our upcoming September 2019 training session. VASAP outreach volunteers donated 8942 hours in 2018 serving victims of sexual assault and domestic violence in Montgomery County.

Volunteers provide 24-hour crisis counseling and companion services at Montgomery County hospitals and police stations for victims of rape, sexual assault, and domestic violence. Bi-lingual volunteers are encouraged to apply.

All volunteers must attend a training program, which covers crisis intervention skills and the specialized knowledge of the emotional, medical and legal issues that victims face.
