DHS TORCHES LEFTIST LIE: Haitian Woman Didn’t Die from ICE Neglect – Was Released Safely in Pittsburgh

A woman wearing a red dress stands in front of a door, showcasing a casual yet stylish look.

A viral claim circulating among leftists on social media accuses Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of abandoning a Haitian asylum seeker far from home without notifying her family, leading to her death days later.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) swiftly debunked the narrative, stating ICE had no involvement in the woman’s passing and detailing her safe release.

Daphy Michel, 31, was a Haitian national who entered the U.S. in December 2022.

Michel was arrested by local authorities in Washington County, Pennsylvania, on charges of terroristic threats and harassment.

After the charges were dismissed in February, ICE encountered her, enrolled her in the Alternatives to Detention program, fitted her with an ankle monitor, and released her from their Pittsburgh office.

According to DHS, Michel was released with all her belongings, including a fully charged phone, in sunny weather in the middle of Pittsburgh, where public transportation is readily available.

She was under electronic monitoring while her immigration case continued.

Three days after being released, on March 2, Michel was found unresponsive at a Pittsburgh bus stop and later pronounced dead.

The cause of death has not been publicly confirmed, though some reports suggest cardiac arrest, with toxicology results pending.

Despite it apparently having nothing to do with her detention, the left quickly used her death to attack ICE.

Viral claims were plastered online that ICE released Michel without family notification, implying negligence led to her death.

DHS quoted one of the viral posts and explained that Michel died three days after her release and that ICE was not informed of her death until media reports surfaced.

On March 3, ICE received a tamper alert from her ankle monitor and sent officers to her last known GPS location, the Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s office.

Local staff refused to cooperate or even speak with federal agents, forcing ICE to involve U.S. Marshals, who retrieved the severed monitor but received no information on Michel’s condition.

The agency wrote in full:

ICE had NOTHING to do with this woman’s death. She passed away THREE days after ICE encountered her.

Following her arrest by local authorities for Terroristic Threats and Harassment, Daphy Michel, an illegal alien from Haiti, was encountered by ICE and placed in removal proceedings. ICE issued her an ICE ankle monitor and she was released from ICE custody on February 27. She was released with all of her belongings, including a fully charged phone, in sunny weather in the middle of Pittsburgh, where public transport is readily available.

On March 3, ICE received a notification that her ankle monitor had been tampered with. ICE officers traveled to her last known location on the GPS system: the county medical office. Upon arrival, local staff refused to cooperate or even talk with ICE federal law enforcement. Our officers instead had to call the U.S. Marshal’s service, who were let into the building and were given the severed ankle monitor. However, staff refused to even tell the U.S. Marshals about the individual’s condition.

ICE was never given official notification of her passing, and found out about her death via the media thanks to the local county’s refusal to even have a conversation with federal law enforcement.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu Trolls Rumor Mill, Posts Coffee Video to Debunk Viral Hoax Claiming He Was Killed

Man in a black jacket holding a coffee cup, smiling while standing in a café with a modern interior and glass display.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu holds a cup of coffee in a lighthearted video posted to social media, trolling viral rumors falsely claiming he had been killed and showing the world he is very much alive.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stunned the rumor mill this weekend after posting a casual coffee-shop video mocking viral claims circulating online that he had been killed.

The bizarre conspiracy exploded across social media after pro-Iran accounts and fringe outlets pushed unverified claims suggesting Netanyahu had been killed or seriously wounded during the escalating regional conflict.

The rumors spread rapidly across X, Telegram, and other platforms before being debunked.

But instead of issuing a typical press release, Netanyahu chose a far more sarcastic response.

In a short video filmed at The Sataf near Jerusalem and posted on X, the Israeli prime minister casually ordered coffee and joked about the rumors.

At one point, Netanyahu quipped that he was “dying for coffee,” a tongue-in-cheek jab at the viral hoax claiming he had been killed.

The Israeli leader even held up his hands to show he had five fingers on each hand, mocking a bizarre online theory that a previous video of him had been AI-generated because viewers believed they spotted “six fingers.”

In the video, Netanyahu also hinted that Israel’s operations against Iran and its proxies were continuing, while refusing to provide operational details.

The restaurant also posted behind-the-scenes content on its personal Instagram account.

US Central Command released more footage of strikes on Iranian military capabilities over the weekend as the US and Israel’s campaign continues. 

CENTCOM shared the following clip on Saturday, writing, “U.S. forces continue to degrade Iranian military capability.”

WATCH:

Central Command released more footage on Sunday, showing additional strikes on Iran’s military facilities.

“Iranian combat power declines, as U.S. dominance builds over vast swaths of Iran,” they said in a statement.

WATCH:

This comes after the US executed the “most powerful bombing raids” in the history of the Middle East on Iran’s Kharg Island in response to Iran’s threats and targeting of ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the world’s most important oil artery.

Trump on Saturday said the US has “beaten and completely decimated Iran, both Militarily, Economically, and in every other way” and called for countries affected by the Strait’s closure to send additional warships to ensure the safe passage of ships and oil tankers.

“In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water. One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE!” Trump added.

Democrat Gettysburg Mayor Who Ran Local Gay Pride Organization Steps Down After Being Arrested for Child Sex Crimes

Portrait of a man with a neutral expression, standing near a colorful rainbow backdrop, highlighting diversity and inclusion themes.

Gettysburg Borough Mayor Chad-Alan Carr, a Democrat who ran the local Gay Pride organization, has stepped down after being arrested for child sex crimes.

Carr, 41, served as mayor until earlier this month, when he left office citing a “personal legal matter.”

The disgraced politician also stepped down as president of Gettysburg Pride, an LGBTQ advocacy group he helped promote in the historic Pennsylvania town known for its Civil War battlefield.

Pennsylvania State Police announced the arrest during a press conference on March 13, following a Childline report received on February 24.

The charges include two felony counts for photographing or filming sexual acts and knowingly depicting them on a computer, plus one misdemeanor count of corruption of minors.

According to court documents, Carr allegedly groomed a 16-year-old boy he met through high school musical productions in Gettysburg around 2011-2013.

The victim, now an adult, reported that Carr solicited explicit photos, engaged in video sex acts via Skype, and shared his own nude images while pressuring the teen for more.

Carr reportedly described the interactions as “late-night talks.”

The Post Millennial reports:

“The report also alleged that (the victim) reported Skype conversations and video chats, where he and Carr would engage in sexual acts,” the affidavit stated. “The Childline report also added that Carr was volunteering at (the victim’s) high school.”

The affidavit said that detectives later interviewed the alleged victim, who told them he had known Carr since childhood but that inappropriate behavior did not begin until Carr became involved with high school musical productions in Gettysburg when the teen was 14.

“(The victim) reported that Carr was very rude to many of the students involved in the high school plays and treated him the same as everyone else the first two years he performed,” the affidavit said. “(The victim) then related that his sophomore and junior years of high school, Carr became very kind and he gave (the victim) a lot of attention. (The victim) then recalled Carr asking him how they could get in touch, not through school email.”

Adams County District Attorney Brian Sinnett revealed during the press conference that police have spoken to “multiple juvenile young boys” about inappropriate contact with Carr, though no additional charges have been filed yet.

Carr was held at Adams County Prison on $100,000 bail, with a preliminary hearing set for March 20.
