He made these comments following a question about a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/true-crime-zodiac-killer-the-most-famous-unknown-serial-killer\/\" title=\"Zodiac Killer: The Infamous, Yet Unknown Serial Killer.\">murder attributed<\/a> to an illegal immigrant who entered the U.S. through\u2063 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/congress-to-hold-hearing-on-bidens-border-wall-waste-after-washington-examiner-reporting\/\" title=\"Congress to investigate Biden's border wall spending following Washington Examiner's report.\">southern\u2062 border<\/a>. Mayorkas emphasized that the individual criminal should be held accountable for their actions, rather than the administration. The victim, a Maryland mother \u200dnamed Rachel Morin, and the administration&#8217;s handling of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-red-wave-of-conservative-women-elected-to-congress\/\" title=\"The Red Wave of Conservative Women Elected to Congress\">border security<\/a> were\u200c central to the discussion. Criticism\u200b noted by commentators\u200c focused on Mayorkas&#8217;s impersonal reference to the victim, alternating from &#8220;individual&#8221; to &#8220;woman&#8221; to &#8220;mother&#8221; during the interview. Critics argue \u200cthis approach reflects a lack\u200c of responsibility and sensitivity on the part\u200c of the administration.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p>Homeland Security Secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/alejandro-mayorkas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alejandro Mayorkas<\/a> denied any responsibility for himself or for President Joe Biden\u2019s administration, saying \u201cthe criminal\u201d was to blame after yet another murder was allegedly traced back to an illegal immigrant who crossed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jd-vance-blames-the-childless-left-for-the-decline-of-the-american-family\/\" title=\"JD Vance Blames The \u2018Childless Left\u2019 For The Decline Of The American Family\">porous southern border<\/a> since Biden took office.<\/p>\n<p>CNN host Jim Acosta posed the question to Mayorkas directly \u2014 after first giving him a little cover by claiming that illegal immigrants were statistically not more likely to commit crimes than natural-born Americans \u2014 asking how he would respond to those who blamed the administration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Mayorkas denies any responsibility for the illegal alien monster who crossed Biden\u2019s open border in early 2023 \u2014 and went on to savagely murder Maryland mother-of-five Rachel Morin <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zmrZkA9WiT\">pic.twitter.com\/zmrZkA9WiT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RNCResearch\/status\/1803427481405313369?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 19, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWhat do you say to critics who blame the administration for allowing something like this to happen?\u201d Acosta asked. \u201cObviously this is something you hear in Right-wing media all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJim, first and foremost, of course our hearts break for the children, the family, the loved ones, the friends of the individual who was murdered \u2014 the woman \u2014 the mother,\u201d Mayorkas replied. \u201cJim, a criminal is responsible for the criminal act.
