Mother of Cop Killed by Illegal: Gov't Betrayed Me

Mary Ann Mendoza, whose son, Mesa, AZ police Sgt. Brandon Mendoza was killed by an illegal immigrant who was driving under the influence criticized the government’s immigration policy and stated that she felt betrayed by her government in an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity” on Thursday.  Mendoza, who The Arizona Republic reported wrote a letter to the president on July 9, said “I have not heard a response [to my letter], and quite frankly, I don’t expect to.”

She also criticized the federal government’s failure to deport illegal immigrants who have committed crimes while in the U.S., focusing blame on President Barack Obama, declaring, “Obama is wanting to raise the level of crimes that people can commit in this country before they’re deported, which is really lowering the standards of what the American people expect of immigrants coming in to our country.”
