A 23-year-old Nicaraguan illegal immigrant named Julio Morales-Jarquin has been charged with two counts of second-degree sexual assault against elderly residents at a nursing home in Fitchburg, Wisconsin — and he was only in this country because the Biden administration’s humanitarian parole program rolled out the welcome mat for him back in 2023.

But sure, tell me again how the border was “secure.”

According to the Daily Wire, Morales-Jarquin worked at Dimensions Living, a nursing facility in Dane County, Wisconsin, where he allegedly preyed on the most defenseless people imaginable — elderly residents, including at least one suffering from dementia and in hospice care. The Fitchburg Police Department charged him on April 29 after investigating assaults that allegedly occurred in February or March.

Let that sink in for a second. A man who should never have set foot on American soil was given access to your grandmother’s nursing home. He wasn’t sneaking in through the back door. He was employed there. Working the hallways.

Acting Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis didn’t mince words. “This dirtbag was released into the country by the Biden Administration,” Bis said. That’s a direct quote from a federal official, folks. “Dirtbag.” That’s how bad this is — even the bureaucrats dropped the diplomatic language.

The Biden-era humanitarian parole program that let Morales-Jarquin waltz into America admitted over 500,000 individuals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela before it was finally shut down in April 2025. Half a million people, waved through with minimal vetting, scattered across the country. And now we get to find out — one horrifying headline at a time — what that decision actually cost.

But it gets worse. Because when ICE tried to do something about Morales-Jarquin after his arrest, Dane County — a proud sanctuary jurisdiction — gave the feds the bureaucratic stiff-arm. The county emailed ICE that “if you want the subject held, you must provide a court document signed by a judge” and warned that “the subject will be released without delay” if ICE didn’t show up within 30 minutes.

Thirty minutes. That’s the window a sanctuary county gives federal agents to pick up a man accused of sexually assaulting elderly dementia patients. You get more time to return a pair of shoes at Nordstrom.

Bis called out the local politicians directly: “DHS is calling on sanctuary politicians in Dane County, Wisconsin to NOT release this criminal.” She added, “We need Wisconsin sanctuary politicians to cooperate with us to remove criminals from our country.”

Good luck with that. These are the same people who’d rather protect their ideological purity than protect a 90-year-old woman in hospice care. The sanctuary city crowd loves to talk about “compassion” and “dignity.” Where was the compassion for the elderly victims at Dimensions Living? Where was their dignity when a man who shouldn’t have been in this country allegedly assaulted them in the place they were supposed to be safest?

This is the human cost of open borders. Not a policy debate. Not a talking point. Real victims — elderly, vulnerable Americans who can’t fight back and can’t speak for themselves — paying the price for Biden’s immigration recklessness.

Every single one of those 500,000 parole entries was a gamble with American lives. This time, the house lost. And it wasn’t a politician or a bureaucrat who paid the tab. It was someone’s grandmother.
