NYPD chief blasts NYC's sanctuary status after illegal migrant charged in knifepoint rape of woman
Fox News
John Chell, NYPD chief of patrol, called for an end to the Big Apple's sanctuary city status after the alleged rape of a 46-year-old woman by an illegal migrant.
Chell argued that migrants like Davon-Bonilla come to the U.S. not in search of a better life, but to prey on city dwellers. "Let's do everything we can to keep our city safe." Sarah Rumpf-Whitten is a breaking news writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.
"People from across the globe come to NYC in pursuit of a better life — the American Dream," Chell posted on X. "However, a small portion have other intentions, including committing crimes and preying on the people of New York City. Daniel Davon-Bonilla is one such predator."
