Transcript
00:00Good morning, everyone. I'm Christine Elm. I'm the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.
00:06And we just recently, in the last couple of days, have had one of our own that has been attacked and has been harmed dangerously by violent criminals that have been run loose here in New York City, but also in this country, as a result of Sanctuary City policies and the policies of the Biden administration.
00:24I just want you all to know that we have our hearts and our prayers going out with our officer and with his family and his friends, and we'll be lifting him up in prayer for his quick recovery and his healing from this terrible tragedy that has befallen him.
00:38Listen, our officer was off duty on Saturday evening when him and his friend were attacked.
00:43They were attacked by two individuals that were set on robbing them, and thankfully, he had his service weapon with him and was able to defend himself and his friend and injured one of those individuals that was trying to do them harm.
00:56His quick action speaks to his tenacity and his excellence in training and skill, and because of that, one of the perpetuators was wounded in this interaction and was incarcerated when he came in to get medical treatment.
01:09One of the suspected attackers, the one that was injured, his name is Miguel Francisco Moro Nunes, a Dominican national that was entering into this country illegally back in 2023.
01:23He was then released back into this country by the Biden administration.
01:27Miguel Francisco Moro Nunes is and has a rap sheet that is a mile long.
01:33He was arrested.
01:34He was charged with grand larceny and also assault.
01:38The state of Massachusetts has an active warrant out for him for armed robbery with a firearm.
01:43He also has many other charges against him, such as kidnapping and witness intimidation.
01:50There's absolutely zero reason that someone who is scum of the earth like this should be running loose on the streets of New York City.
01:58He was arrested four different times in New York City, and because of the mayor's policies,
02:03he was released back to do harm to people and to individuals living in this city.
02:09Make no mistake, this officer is in the hospital today fighting for his life because of the policies of the mayor of the city and the city council.
02:17And the people that were in charge of keeping the public safe, they refused to do so,
02:22and now we have the situation on our hand where someone who has dedicated their lives to protecting the public
02:27is now fighting for his life and saying.
