Gov. Tim Walz PARDONS Illegal Alien Convicting of Raping 10-Year-Old Girl

And, there it is — Democrats have just officially condoned pedophilia.

Earlier this month, Gov. Tim Walz and other officials on the Minnesota Board of Pardons voted to pardon an illegal alien who was convicted of repeatedly raping and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl.

The child predator, Tou Lue Vang, who is originally from Laos, was supposed to be deported from our country in June.

But, this new pardon clears his name and could shield him from deportation.

Homeland Security is sounding the alarm on X:

On June 10, the Minnesota Board of Pardons voted to grant Tou Lue Vang, from Laos, a pardon for his 2006 convictions for sexual assault—strongarm sodomy and procuring a child for prostitution. This pardon came just a week before Vang was set to be REMOVED from our nation.

During his interviews with police, Vang tried to justify his actions by saying “it is a cultural thing…to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.”

Governor Walz’s pardon shielded this CHILD RAPIST from removal from our nation. This is the type of DISGUSTING criminal sanctuary politicians are shamelessly protecting.

When this illegal alien child predator was convicted back in 2006, he disgustingly claimed that it was just part of his “culture” and blamed the little girl that he raped.

A DHS press release reads:

According to court filings, Vang repeatedly sexually assaulted a girl between 2002 and 2004. On one occasion, he tried to offer his victim $10 to keep quiet about the sexual assaults. While being interviewed by police, he tried to justify his actions by saying that for him “it is a cultural thing…to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.” He also claimed that the victim was just as guilty as him and should also be arrested.

Following his conviction, a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge issued Vang a final order of removal on October 31, 2006.

“Governor Tim Walz’s decision to pardon an illegal alien convicted child rapist so he can remain in our country is disgusting,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “These are the criminal illegal aliens he and his Minnesota sanctuary politicians are protecting. Tou Lue Vang lost his legal status following his conviction for repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl. Following the conviction, he was placed in removal proceedings and issued a final order of removal by a judge. This pardon will take away this child rapist’s qualifying convictions that made him removable from the United States.”

Vang entered the United States in California in 1994 and was granted legal status by the Clinton Administration. That status was revoked upon his conviction and final order of removal in 2006.

What a sicko!

NEW: DHS is accusing MN Gov. Tim Walz of trying to shield a Laotian illegal alien pedophile from being deported after Walz pardoned him for a 2006 conviction in which he repeatedly raped a 10-year-old girl in MN. DHS says Tou Lue Vang was issued a deportation order immediately after that conviction and was set to be imminently deported, but the pardon has now removed his deportable offenses and given him a clean record, which may thwart his removal and give him an avenue to fight deportation.

WARNING GRAPHIC DETAILS BELOW:

According to Vang’s conviction documents from the state of Minnesota, in 2004, he repeatedly had penetrative sex with the 10-year-old girl on multiple occasions and forced oral sex upon her in which he ejaculated into her mouth. He told police “I made a mistake, but this is a minor thing…it’s a cultural thing to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.” He also said the child should be arrested and she was also at fault.

Vang ultimately took a plea deal to plead guilty to the offense of first degree criminal sexual conduct. NYT reports he served no prison time as part of the deal.

Vang was pardoned for the offense last month by the Minnesota Board of Pardons, which is made up of the MN Governor, MN Attorney General, and Chief Justice of the MN Supreme Court. All pardons must be approved by the MN Governor.

DHS is now blasting the decision:

“Governor Tim Walz’s decision to pardon an illegal alien convicted child rapist so he can remain in our country is disgusting,” said Acting DHS Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “These are the criminal illegal aliens he and his Minnesota sanctuary politicians are protecting. Tou Lue Vang lost his legal status following his conviction for repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl. Following the conviction, he was placed in removal proceedings and issued a final order of removal by a judge. This pardon will take away this child rapist’s qualifying convictions that made him removable from the United States.”

Tou Lue Vang sent a letter to Gov. Walz and other Minnesota officials requesting a pardon so that he can stay in the United States with his wife and children.

Apparently, they thought he sounded sorry enough and granted that request swiftly.

Isn’t that nice?

The New York Times reported further:

The Minnesota Board of Pardons granted the reprieve on June 10 to Tou Lue Vang, 42, who came to the United States as a child and was set to be deported to Laos imminently. Mr. Vang had submitted a letter to the board expressing regret for the actions that led to his 2005 conviction, and said a pardon could help him stay in the country with his wife and six children.

Mr. Vang’s victim, who was 10 when the abuse began, also submitted a letter supporting the pardon. Mr. Vang pleaded guilty to first-degree criminal sexual conduct in a plea deal that spared him from serving time in prison.

The pardon effectively wiped clean Mr. Vang’s criminal record, providing him an avenue to fight deportation.

Trump administration officials criticized the pardon, denouncing Mr. Walz and other Democratic leaders in the state. The other two members of the pardon board are Attorney General Keith Ellison and the state’s chief Supreme Court justice, Natalie Hudson.

Make no mistake: these are the kinds of people that Gov. Tim Walz and the Democrats want in our country…

They will put the welfare of literal pedophiles over the safety of American citizens.

As it turns out, as long as you are an illegal foreigner, you can do no wrong in the eyes of Democrats!

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin pointed out:

.@GovTimWalz’s decision to PARDON an illegal alien child rapist is horrific.

This evil alien from Laos repeatedly sexually assaulted a 10 year old child.

These are the illegal alien criminals sanctuary politicians like Tim Walz are protecting over American citizens. https://t.co/gEpvmjCAYq

Everyone should remember this when voting these people into power.

Here’s a great idea that Gov. Walz should really consider:

Maybe Tim and his wife can invite this fine gentleman to live with them since they obviously care so much about his welfare.
