(DC Pundit) – Three Virginia Department of Corrections officers were stabbed Friday morning after a calculated and brutal ambush carried out by five illegal alien MS-13 gang members. These are the folks the left is bending over backward to keep inside our borders.
According to Virginia Department of Corrections Director Chad Dotson, the attack happened at Wallens Ridge State Prison around 9:45 a.m. It involved six inmates, five of whom are confirmed MS-13 members from El Salvador—and, yes, they’re in the U.S. illegally. Their résumés? A charming lineup of aggravated murder, first and second-degree murder, and rape. The sixth thug, a member of the Sureno 13 gang, is at least a homegrown killer, currently locked up for second-degree murder.
So just to recap: we’ve got foreign gang members with rap sheets thicker than a phone book, and instead of being deported, they’re housed in U.S. prisons on the taxpayers’ dime, where they’re now stabbing corrections officers. Sounds like a flawless immigration system, right?
“Five of the individuals responsible for this senseless attack should never have been in this country in the first place,” Dotson said. Bingo. That’s a statement we can all agree on. “Every single day, our officers put their lives on the line to ensure public safety for the more than 8.8 million people across the Commonwealth. This attack is an example of the dangers they face when they show up to work every day. Our officers are heroes, and I commend the team at Wallens Ridge for their swift response.”

Dotson isn’t wrong, corrections officers are walking into war zones every single day. And when they’re forced to guard violent foreign gang members who should’ve been booted from this country on arrival, it’s not just dangerous, it’s a national disgrace.
Five officers were sent out for medical treatment, with three suffering minor injuries, including two officers hurt while responding to the chaos. Two more were admitted to the hospital in stable condition.
But here’s the part that really stings: none of this had to happen.
This is what happens when you have open-border fanatics working overtime to protect criminal illegal aliens instead of, say, American citizens or the men and women in uniform tasked with keeping them behind bars. The same politicians who lecture everyone about “compassion” and “inclusion” are nowhere to be found when correctional officers are bleeding on the floor.
It’s worth remembering that MS-13 isn’t your average criminal street gang. Known for barbaric violence and ritualistic killings, the gang has a motto that loosely translates to “Kill, Rape, Control.” Lovely, right? These are not people crossing the border for a better life, they’re bringing death, destruction, and chaos with them. And they found a target Friday morning in Virginia.
This incident should be a wake-up call to anyone still pretending there’s no connection between open-border policies and public safety. The blood spilled at Wallens Ridge didn’t have to be spilled. But until more leaders with common sense and a spine step up, leaders like President Donald Trump, we’re going to keep seeing headlines like this.
