Those three suspects were in the home where Arriaga was arrested Friday. His brothers Adrian and Conrado Virgen were also arrested along with his girlfriend Ana Leyde Cervantes and coworker Erik Quiroz.

Big League Politics reported Friday:

Stanislaus County, California Sheriff Adam Christianson announced the arrest of the suspected illegal immigrant killer of Ronil Singh, following a manhunt for the suspect.

Suspect Gustavo Perez Arriaga was taken into custody Friday after allegedly shooting and killing Newman Police Department Corporal Singh on Wednesday.

“I want justice for the Singh family,” Sheriff Christianson said, vowing that “We were never more than a step behind this guy.”

“I don’t have any information yet on prior deportations, I simply want to focus on the fact that this is a criminal illegal alien with prior criminal activity that should have been reported to ICE. We were prohibited, law enforcement was prohibited, because of sanctuary laws and that led to the encounter with Officer Singh. I’m suggesting that the outcome could have been different if law enforcement wasn’t restricted, prohibited, or had their hands tied because of political interference.”

Singh’s murder has once again ignited the national debate about border security during a time when President Donald J. Trump has vowed to keep the federal government shutdown until Democrats agree to $5 billion in funding for a wall along the southern border.
