When I asked two days ago, could it get any worse for Twin Falls, little did I know that a third criminal arrest had occurred in the ‘poster city’ for what a large refugee influx can do to your town.
Here is the news from Michael Patrick Leahy at Breitbart (the Eritrean was angry at the Bosnian! Isn’t diversity beautiful?):
A refugee from Eritrea was arrested on felony aggravated battery charges in Twin Falls, Idaho on July 28.
Mulugeta Zemu Mana, 32, told the presiding judge at his Twin Falls bond hearing, “The only guilt I have is the day I decided to come to this country.”
His alleged victim is another refugee, Samuel Gebreegziabher. The arresting officer, Dzevad Mustafic, was also a resettled refugee whose country of origin is Bosnia and Herzegovina. Both disagree with Mana’s claim of innocence.

The court provided a taxpayer-funded interpreter of Tingrinya, his native language, and common in Eritrea and neighboring Ethiopia. Mana told the judge he “didn’t care” if his bond was set as high as $100 million.
The judge obliged and set bond at $100 million.

This is the third public report of an arrest in a major crime in Twin Falls since June that involves Muslims who have been resettled in the community en-masse to take lower-wage jobs in the expanding agricultural industry.
I’ve only snipped a bit of the story because I want you to go read the whole thing! Click here!
Will this dangerous refugee ever be deported? I doubt it! He will be the ward of the US taxpayer for life—either behind bars or on welfare. We talk a lot about security screening for terrorism, but we wonder if any refugees are screened for mental health problems?
