ABDUCTED: Yair Anthony Carillo

THE PROBLEM with instituting a terror program such as the Department of Homeland Security’s ICE has done—wherein violence, raids, SWAT team-like tactics or routine demands for “Your Papers” are normalized—is that it not only models gross behavior as a moral compass for the rest of the nation, but it also sends a message to Latinos and immigrants that they should expect and submit to this type of behavior whenever it comes their way.

And then sickos like Shawna Forde and Eugene Bush of the Minuteman Defense corps or whatever they call themselves bust into a home pretending to be Immigration officials conducting a raid and bring murder into a family’s bosom.

Or you get something like this latest piece of heartrending news:

An AMBER alert remains in effect for a 4-day-old infant who was abducted in Nashville by a woman posing to be an immigration worker. …

The boy has not been found, police said, and the alert for him remains active.

On Tuesday, the child’s mother, Maria Gurrolla, 30, told police she allowed the kidnapper into her East Ridge home in south Nashville after she asked to see her immigration papers. Once inside, the mother was stabbed eight times and her child was taken, police said.

Wheelchair-bound and bandaged, Maria Gurrolla, the mother of kidnapped newborn Yair Anthony Carillo, spoke Wednesday afternoon to reporters at Vanderbilt Medical Center about the traumatic events that have set off a national search for the missing child.

After the press conference Metro Police said it was searching for the driver of a dark colored Kia Spectra that appeared to follow Gurrolla as she left a Walmart store on Nolensville Road Tuesday.

“All that I can tell you is I was attacked in my home,” Gurrolla told reporters in Spanish. A cousin, Norma Rodriguez, acted as an interpreter.

Visibly bruised from yesterday’s ordeal, Gurrolla recounted how the unknown robust white woman knocked on her door and identified herself as an immigration officer.

“The only thing that she said was that she was going to arrest her,” Rodriguez said.

Gurrolla and the assailant became involved in the physical struggle. The victim told reporters the woman was not armed when she came into the house, but during the struggle found a small knife already in the residence and turned it on the mother. Gurrolla was stabbed nine times.

The sooner they find these people, the better. The better chance for the baby’s health, and the faster he can be back where he belongs. What an entrance into this world. Four days old.

UPDATE:

Yair has been found! (Thanks for the link, Aunt B.) Oddly, the page states the charges pending are “kidnapping and assault charges.” But if stabbing someone 9 times is not Attempted Murder, then what is??

UPDATE 2: I cover this and further developments of the story in the October 5 News With Nezua.
