During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Governor Kathy Hochul was challenged by Rep. Elise Stefanik to name high-profile crimes committed by illegal immigrants in New York. Hochul struggled to provide specifics on cases like that of Sebastian Zapeta, who is accused of burning a woman alive on the subway, and Sakir Akkan, who raped a minor. Stefanik highlighted these instances as part of the conversation surrounding sanctuary state laws and alleged failures in crime management linked to illegal immigration.
These are high-profile cases, New Yorkers know about them and you don't? Let's talk about Sebastian Zapeta Khalil. Do you know who that is?
I bet you're gonna be familiar when I remind you. He found a sleeping woman on the subway, lit her on fire and burned her alive.
