Illegal alien accused of stealing Kristi Noem's purse
The suspect who was arrested Saturday in the theft of Secretary Kristi Noem’s purse is in the country illegally, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia said in an interview with NBC News.
Ed Martin said a second suspect who also is in the country illegally is being sought by law enforcement.
It is not believed the suspect targeted Noem because she was the Department of Homeland Security secretary, Martin said.
“There is no indication it was because of that. It was frankly, it was a nice looking purse,” Martin said, in a recorded telephone interview.
In the call, Martin said Immigration and Customs Enforcement is now involved.
“President Trump’s direction to us is we charge these folks that are here illegally and we prosecute them, as well as deport them when need be, you know, as soon as that can happen,” Martin said, adding, “What I can tell you is he won’t be back on the streets in America.”

The perps picked a high-profile way to make the case against illegal immigration by stealing the purse of the head of Homeland Security. They should make the guy spend some hard time before deporting him. The story does not indicate what country the illegals were from, but they were clearly a long way from the border when they committed the theft.
