Rachel Morin’s family slams Biden-Harris for silence over her murder allegedly committed by illegal migrant


FIRST ON FOX: The family of Rachel Morin, the Maryland mother of five who was brutally attacked and murdered, allegedly by an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, in August 2023, slammed the Biden administration for a “lack of compassion” over their daughter’s death.

In a statement from Randolph Rice, the Morin family’s spokesperson, the family expressed “deep” disappointment in the Biden administration, including President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, for its “lack of acknowledgment and compassion” for their beloved family member.

The family noted Wednesday marked 75 days since Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, the 23-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador who allegedly murdered the 37-year-old, had been arrested in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 

“The Morin family is deeply disappointed by the lack of acknowledgment and compassion from President Biden and his administration,” they said. “It has been 75 days since Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, an illegal immigrant who slipped across our nation’s border multiple times, was captured. Yet, there has been no word from the White House.”

The family said the Biden administration has sent a “troubling message” that the “safety and well-being” of American citizens is “not a priority” for the White House.

“The silence is deafening, and it sends a troubling message that the safety and well-being of American citizens are not a priority,” the family said. “This lack of concern serves as a reminder of the apparent disregard by the Biden administration for the victims of preventable crimes committed by illegal immigrants. Like many others, the Morin family deserves recognition and action from their leaders to prevent such tragedies from happening again.”

The family of the mother of five, who was killed while going out on an evening run in Bel Air, Maryland, expressed their thanks to former President Trump, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore and former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan.

“In stark contrast to the silence from the Biden Administration, former President Donald Trump has met with the Morin family on multiple occasions, offering his support and condolences,” the family’s statement said. 

“Maryland Governor Wes Moore has also reached out to the family, expressing his sorrow for their loss. Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan contacted the family soon after the suspect’s apprehension. He and Maryland Lt. Governor Aruna Miller attended the one-year memorial walk with the family, demonstrating their commitment to honor Rachel Morin’s memory,” Rice said.

Morin’s family highlighted the human toll of the Biden administration’s lax border policies, calling for the Biden administration to recognize the impact its policies have had on everyday American citizens.

“The Morin family’s pain is a poignant reminder of the consequences of the lax border policies and the human toll that results from them,” Rice said. “As they continue to mourn the loss of Rachel, they call on the Biden administration to finally break its silence and acknowledge the tragedy that has devastated their lives.”

Morin, 37, was reported missing in August 2023 by her boyfriend, who said she never returned after going out for a run on the Ma & Pa Trail, a pedestrian trail in Bel Air, a quiet and typically safe town about 28 miles northeast of Baltimore, Aug. 5, 2023.

Her body was found on the trail the next day.

Police say Martinez-Hernandez was linked to Morin’s killing through DNA evidence.

In March 2023, DNA matched Martinez-Hernandez with a brutal attack in Los Angeles.

“Once in our country, and likely emboldened by his anonymity, he brutally attacked a 9-year-old girl and her mother during a home invasion in March of 2023 in Los Angeles,” Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler said in a previous press conference. “And as everyone I believe is aware, that was our first DNA match linking Rachel’s case to the one in Los Angeles.”

The FBI said familial DNA, or genetic material that leads to a small pool of relatives, helped it identify Martinez-Hernandez as the perpetrator in both cases.

Authorities said Martinez-Hernandez was also wanted for murder in El Salvador.

“We are 1,800 miles from the southern border,” Gahler said at the June press conference. “And American citizens are not safe because of [the White House and Congress’] failed immigration policies.”

Martinez-Hernandez was apprehended in Tusla, Oklahoma, in June and faces charges of first-degree murder, rape and kidnapping in Morin’s death.
