Nassau County, New York, is a densely populated suburban town on Long Island, just east of the Big Apple and serving as a bedroom community for the city. For whatever reason, Long Island in general seems to be a magnet for illegal aliens. Now two residents of Nassau County are murder victims, and an illegal alien is facing charges in both murders.

An illegal alien brutally m*rdered two women — a coworker and his roommate — in separate attacks on Long Island.
Rony Yahir Alvarenga Rivera allegedly st*bbed a 42-year-old female coworker to death as she was taking out the garbage behind a Wendy’s in Island Park, Nassau County, just after midnight Friday.
Several hours later, he allegedly killed a 32-year-old woman on Mineola Avenue in Valley Stream.
Rivera entered the U.S. illegally in 2016 allegedly at age 12.
After the attacks, he calmly told officers, “I’ve killed someone.”
A local news outlet, ABC affiliate Eyewitness News, has more details.
Police say he first killed a 32-year-old woman at the Valley Stream home they shared on West Mineola Avenue around 9 p.m. Thursday, then later stabbed and killed a coworker at a Wendy's restaurant on Austin Boulevard in Island Park.
Nassau County officials on Saturday did not release a motive, instead describing the suspect's mental state.
"To sum it up in one word, angry," said Detective Lieutenant George Darienzo, commanding officer of homicide for the Nassau County Police Department.
Both victims were women and were killed by multiple stab wounds to the neck and torso, police said.
Angry doesn't seem to cover it. And what would Rivera have to be angry about? He entered the United States ten years ago, illegally, and regardless of his status, he was allowed to stay, illegally, and now he stands accused of two murders.
Police responded to Wendy's a little after midnight on Friday for a report of a person with a knife. Inside, they found a 42-year-old woman, a mother of two, who was pronounced dead at the scene by medics.
While officers were investigating that homicide, police received a call about a man in need of help at a 7-Eleven in Lynbrook.
"The officers responded, and that individual said he had killed somebody that night," Darienzo said. "A short conversation ensued, and an arrest was made. At that same time, information was received that this individual may be responsible for a second murder."
Rivera, again, had no business being in the United States in the first place.
Rivera, an illegal alien reportedly from El Salvador, stands accused, but remember, he is entitled to due process, including the presumption of innocence. However, his statement, referenced by Eyewitness News, seems a lot like an admission.
There is a growing list of victims of crimes perpetrated by people who never should have been in the United States at all. While Rivera entered under the Obama administration, Joe Biden's presidency is still the primary culprit, having allowed millions of illegal immigrants, most unscreened and unvetted, to enter and remain in the United States. Now there are, very likely, millions of people in the country illegally, and every crime victim of one of these illegal aliens can be laid directly at the feet of the Biden administration.
