Perfect Storm of Illegal Immigration Merging with Child Molestation



Friday, January 05, 2007
By Bill O'Reilly

In northern Wisconsin, 25-year-old Paulo Sheispan-Landero, an illegal immigrant from Mexico, is charged with first degree sexual assault on a child under 13 — a felony which would fall under Wisconsin's Jessica's Law.According to the criminal complaint the man on three separate occasions molested a 12-year-old girl with his hands. The complaining witnesses are the girl herself and her mother, who was dating Landero.Now Landero has two previous convictions, one for battery, and apparently was deported to Mexico. But the mother says he was back in Wisconsin about a week after that deportation.So, let's recap: Criminal illegal alien who has already been deported is now charged with a felony sexual assault on a child. He is in big trouble right?Not so fast.When Landero stood before court commissioner Lawrence Gazeley he must have been stunned when he was allowed to walk out of the court after posting $5,000 bond — 5,000 bucks for a guy facing 25 years and who has a home in Mexico. Can you believe this?Well, we called Mr. Gazeley. He would not comment. He is hiding under his desk. That is the usual routine. The judge in this case is William Atkinson. We called him he wouldn't comment either.
This incredible tale illustrates two important things:First, our southern border remains a joke. Anybody can walk in here. And if they commit crimes they're often not dealt with harshly. And second, there are many in law enforcement who don't see sexual assaults on children as serious crimes. No sane person grants a man charged with a felony assault on a 12-year-old girl $5,000 bond.After reporting on the immigration chaos and child molestation epidemic for years I'm just about numb, ladies and gentlemen. We have made great strides with Jessica's Law, but there are far too many officials who are incompetent like this guy in Wisconsin.On the illegal immigration front, we have made a little progress but not much. I believe the wall will never be funded by the Democratic Congress and the southern border will not be secured.So, there will be many other Paulo Sheispan-Landeros to come. And our elected officials will continue to look the other way. Not a great message to start 2007, but the truth is the truth. And that's the Memo.

Why Isn't an Illegal Immigrant Being Prosecuted For Child Molestation?

Friday, January 05, 2007

This is a partial transcript from "The O'Reilly Factor," January 4, 2007, that has been edited for clarity.Watch "The O'Reilly Factor" weeknights at 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. ET and listen to the "Radio Factor!"
BILL O'REILLY, HOST: Now for the
"Top Story" tonight. How could something like this happen in northern Wisconsin. Joining us, a former D.A. of Waukesha County Paul Bucher, and from Washington, FOX News criminal analyst Detective Rod Wheeler, who has been talking to local cops.
What did you find out about the case, detective?
ROD WHEELER, FOX NEWS CRIMINAL ANALYST: Bill, if there ever was an abomination of justice this is exactly what that is. I cannot believe for the life of me, and nor can the police up there, the sheriff's office that I spoke with today, they were just as stunned because of the fact that it was nothing that they could really do. And you know, Bill, we've talked about this several times before.Local law enforcement, their hands are tied in terms of what they can do. They must operate by the orders of the court. And when this judge or this commissioner up in Wisconsin let this guy walk, the cops were livid about it and they had every right to be so.

O'REILLY: Now, Mr. Bucher, maybe you can explain, this is the judge, Atkinson. He didn't make the bail assignment. OK? A man named, as I said, Lawrence Gazley, a commissioner made the bail assignment. Couldn't the judge say that's ridiculous. You don't give an illegal alien who is a flight risk $5,000 bond when he is charged with a felony child sexual assault. Couldn't the judge have stepped in here?
PAUL BUCHER, FORMER WISCONSIN PROSECUTOR: Sure, Bill. And I'm sure that's what he is saying today. But he probably is hearing about it just as we heard about it. The judge really doesn't see the case until the next court date. So this is a court commissioner. This is sort of the entry into the system.This is a person that is not even elected. Court commissioners are appointed. So this person made the decision. They're not held responsible for it. The judge I'm sure is livid. But now the judge is...
O'REILLY: I don't know if he is livid or not. I mean, look. You are telling me this is some low level bureaucrat, not elected, I guess he has to be an attorney correct, this guy?
BUCHER: That's correct. Right.
O'REILLY: He is there. He is a bureaucrat. All the people who the sheriff's office arrests in northern Wisconsin, they go to him or somebody like him and they decide what the bond will be. Is that what you are telling me?
BUCHER: Bill, it's like that in the entire state. And the judge will see him when he returns to court. What are the odds do you think of this illegal immigrant returning to court
.O'REILLY: He is supposed to show up tomorrow, Mr. Bucher. If I were him I wouldn't show up. The guy's got two previous beefs. He is facing 25 years for the molestation of this girl, if convicted. He's already been deported and came back. So I mean, number one, ICE should have him. Because this is a serious allegation. The feds should have come right in and taken him away. They don't care. They didn't do it. Right detective? I'm sure they contacted the feds.
WHEELER: You are exactly right, Bill. The problem is much larger than just this one case. This is a terrible situation. What happened to this young girl. But you know what, illegal immigrants already know the courts are either going to look the other way, our Congress, our representatives look the other way because it's not politically correct. And they take advantage of that situation. So I think this situation is very indicative, Bill, of a trend that we see happening in the United States
.O'REILLY: Of course it is.
WHEELER: Let me tell you, there are 80,000 illegal immigrants right now in the United States that have active arrest warrants out for their arrest from murder to rape to shoplifting. Take your pick.
BUCHER: Here is the problem, I bet the federal immigration authorities didn't even know about this case. Because the sheriff assumed the court told them. The court assumed the sheriff told them. The D.A. said it's not my job. That's the problem. There's a hole in the system. There's a way to fix it but in this case it's just indicative of the problems.
O'REILLY: So it is possible neither the sheriff's office nor court contacted ICE, the national security people, about hey we've got an illegal alien, already deported the guy, he's back again and now charged with molesting a 12-year-old girl.All right, tomorrow .
BUCHER: I'm willing to bet on it.
O'REILLY: Now tomorrow this guy is suppose to show up in front of Gazley again. All right. Now of course we're going to watch this case to see if he does show up. But Atkinson, the judge, has to step in if he does show up and raise the bail to an appropriate level. Does he not?
BUCHER: I think there will be a lot of people stepping in, Bill. I think now that ICE is aware of this case it would not surprise me if they grab this guy and put him in custody. But I think he is gone by now. Number two, this commissioner will raise bail. And number three, the D.A. will probably be going in either with a court commissioner or a new judge to significantly increase bail. But it's going to have to be in absentia. Because I can't imagine this guy is going to return.
O'REILLY: Well, if he doesn't show up then Gazely's got to be fired, correct.
BUCHER: Absolutely.
O'REILLY: He's got to be fired. You got to fire a guy that gave him $5,000 bond right away. Because the system is so corrupt and breaking down everywhere that I am going to make an example of this case. And we just can't have the continuing chaos that we have. And it's everybody's fault. It's the federal government's fault. It's Gazely's fault in northern Wisconsin. And what about the 12-year-old girl? Who cares about her? You know what the answer is, gentlemen? Nobody cares about that girl. And the thousands of other children who have been molested in this country.It is just awful.
BUCHER: There's a way to fix this problem.
O'REILLY: We'll fix it on this one
.BUCHER: Well the state authorities can help out but that's another story.
O'REILLY: All right, Mr. Bucher. Thanks for coming on. Detective, as always. We'll let everybody to know if this guy shows up for his hearing tomorrow. If he doesn't, all hell is going to break loose.

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales Explains Project Safe Childhood

Monday, December 11, 2006

This is a partial transcript from "The O'Reilly Factor," December 8, 2006, that has been edited for clarity.Watch "The O'Reilly Factor" weeknights at 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. ET and listen to the "Radio Factor!
"JOHN KASICH, GUEST HOST: In the "'Factor' Original" segment tonight, the Justice Department is aggressively cracking down on online sexual predators. It's a growing problem. American kids being stalked and exploited on the internet. It's the target of Project Safe Childhood. The man behind the initiative is Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. He spoke with Bill O'Reilly yesterday:
BILL O'REILLY, HOST: Mr. Attorney General, before we get into the specifics of the program that you're launching, everybody asks me this question, when you and I were growing up, is it worse now, is sexual predation worse now than it was back then?

ALBERTO GONZALES, U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL: I would certainly say it's certainly different. I think the battlefield is different. And I call it a "battlefield" because I think we are in a war to protect the innocence of our children.And the reason I say it's different is because of the internet. I think the internet has facilitated the growth of child pornography. Predators on the Internet, they can now cloak under the secrecy of the Internet. They can communicate with others who share who have the same kind of interest in child pornography. And so, it's quite frankly, Bill, it's much different than when we were in children.
O'REILLY: I agree that the internet gives aids and comfort and emboldens these predators and gives them more opportunity because they can disguise themselves as teenagers and they can trade pictures. They can do all this stuff.But we don't really have an organized federal presence to monitor the internet, do we? Do you have like an "internet FBI" under your jurisdiction?
GONZALES: Well, we obviously want to be very, very careful about — about invading people's privacy. I think people would have some concerns if there was constant monitoring of Internet use.But we do have programs in place that does allow us to monitor certain uses of the internet, certain — access to certain sites -- where we know that you do have child pornography.But make no mistake about it: the Internet and changing technology presents different kinds of challenges for the law enforcement community.
O'REILLY: Don't we need — don't we need a federal cyber police? Don't we need — see, I don't think Americans — I think you might be wrong here, Mr. Attorney General, with all due respect. I don't think Americans mind you going into the porno web sites and to the chat rooms where you know that they're concentrating on child stuff.And they're bold. They're bold. I mean, they got the names right there and the advertisers. I don't think they'd mind the FBI going in and finding out who's doing this and whether they're going over the line.
GONZALES: And we're doing that, Bill.
O'REILLY: OK, good.
GONZALES: Where we can, we certainly are doing it. But again, we have to be careful about reaching in and monitoring access to perfectly innocent communications, perfectly legal web sites. But we are working very, very hard, taking advantage of new technology, to bring down these terrible sites.
O'REILLY: I understand that the — this is a very complicated issue. Now, you do have a message for all the folks, everybody watching tonight. And you want them to help you. Why don't you just tell everybody what you want them to do.
GONZALES: I think people need to understand how pervasive this problem is, particularly over the internet. This really is a war against the innocence of our children and this is not a problem that can be solved solely by the law enforcement community. We've been given additional good tools by the Congress recent — most recently in the Adam Walsh Child Protection Act.But it requires the cooperation of all the federal law enforcement authorities, state and local law enforcement authorities, victim advocacy groups, the business community, but particularly parents. We need to have parents be aware of the dangers of children getting on the internet.And so this is the message that I want your viewers to understand. We've got some good programs, primarily Project Safe Childhood, where we're developing partnerships with state and local groups around the country so that we can get the message out, so that we can provide training, so that we can do joint prosecutions.
O'REILLY: All right. Well, good for you. This has to be a concerted effort on the part of everybody. I always tell parents, no unsupervised computer access for any kid under 16. No computers in the bedroom where you can't see it. It's always got to be in a community area where everybody knows.And then you've got to use the chips. You've got to block some of sites and you've got to go in and you've got to know when your kid's been. And you've got to become computer savvy yourself, because you're right.I mean, the parents of America, this thing, it cuts across every line. There's just no profile, and any kid can get sucked into it.So good luck, Mr. Attorney General. Anything we can do to help you, let us know. OK?
GONZALES: Thank you so much.
