Crockett is out of control.
Washington, D.C. — Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett is under fire after shocking comments during a heated House Judiciary Committee debate, where she dismissed the terrible death of Kayla Hamilton, an American woman, as simply the name of a “random dead person.”
Her remarks sparked nationwide outrage, with conservatives calling it another example of Democrats putting illegal immigrants ahead of American citizens — and a reminder of the dangeorous consequences of open-border policies.
Kayla Hamilton’s Murder: A Brutal Crime That Shook the Nation
Kayla Hamilton, a vibrant woman, was assaulted, bound, and choked by Walter Martinez, an underage MS-13 gang member who entered the U.S. illegally under the “Unaccompanied Alien Child” program supported by President Biden’s administration.
Martinez was later convicted and sentenced to 70 years in prison, but the horrific crime has become a symbol of the dangers posed by unchecked illegal immigration and lax vetting procedures.
Crockett’s Explosive Outburst Against GOP
During Wednesday’s committee session, Republicans introduced the Kayla Hamilton Act, a bill designed to prevent similar tragedies by requiring mandatory background checks on underage illegal immigrants before they are released into U.S. communities.
Instead of supporting the effort to protect American families, Rep. Crockett lashed out, accusing Republicans of “exploiting” victims for political gain.
“Quit using the name of some tragic victim just to score political points,” Crockett yelled at her Republican colleagues.
Before those shocking words, Crockett attempted to deflect the debate, bizarrely bringing up Jeffrey Epstein’s victims and accusing Republicans of hypocrisy, telling them to “stop pretending like you care.”
Republicans Fire Back: ‘Shameful and Disgusting’
Rep. Russell Fry (R-S.C.), who authored the Kayla Hamilton Act, blasted Crockett’s comments, calling them “disgusting rhetoric” and “shameful behavior.”
“Kayla Hamilton was far more than just a name,” Fry told Fox News Digital. “She was a beloved daughter with dreams and a future ahead of her. For Rep. Crockett to speak about her so coldly is absolutely disgraceful.”
Fry went further, linking Crockett’s remarks to Democrats’ failed border policies:
“Sadly, this is what we’ve come to expect from Democrats, who will take any opportunity to downplay the tragedies of Americans killed by criminal illegal aliens,” Fry said. “I expect Rep. Crockett to issue a public apology to Kayla’s family — and to every American harmed by her party’s reckless open-borders agenda.”
Kayla’s Mother Speaks Out: ‘This Could Have Been Prevented’
In a July interview with Fox News, Tammy Nobles, Kayla’s grieving mother, urged Congress to act:
“The Kayla Hamilton Act is necessary to ensure background checks are done before unaccompanied illegal immigrants are released into our communities,” Nobles said. “If that had been done in Kayla’s case, authorities would have known he was an MS-13 gang member. My daughter would still be alive.”
Her emotional plea underscores the life-and-death stakes of the immigration crisis — and why this bill matters.
Why This Matters to Every American
This debate is about far more than politics. It’s about protecting innocent Americans from the violent criminals streaming across the southern border.
Crockett’s dismissive comments have become a rallying cry for those who believe Democrats have lost touch with everyday Americans and are choosing illegal immigrants over their own citizens.

Final Thoughts
Rep. Crockett’s shocking rhetoric highlights the deep divide in Washington over border security. While Republicans fight to secure the border and protect American families, Democrats appear more concerned with political games and defending their failed policies.
The 2024 election isn’t just about politics — it’s about the safety and future of our nation. Voters must decide whether they want law and order or chaos and tragedy.
