As if the story weren't horrible enough: The teenage monster accused of raping and burying that 8-year-old girl in Florida who was found alive in a landfill was here illegally. Despite numerous arrests for burglary and vandalism, no action was taken to deport him.
According to the Palm Beach Post:

Two years ago, [Milagro] Cunningham's mother shipped him here from the Bahamas, acquaintances said. Banished this year from the Lake Worth home of his fed-up aunt, Cunningham drifted to the house where the girl sometimes stayed. He claimed he didn't have the proper immigration paperwork to get a job or continue attending high school. With no work and no studies, he played video games and basketball, spending his nights on the sofa of a sympathetic neighbor.
"He was basically just floating," said Lisa Taylor, who took pity on Cunningham and took him in. "I couldn't put him in school. He couldn't get a job."
...In a one-month period last year, Cunningham was arrested three times by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office on burglary charges. A relative said he also had been arrested recently on a charge of throwing a rock through a car window. Cunningham attended John I. Leonard High in Greenacres this school year but dropped out after one of his arrests, acquaintances said.
...Cunningham slept on the sofa and played video football on a Nintendo Game Cube day after day. He played basketball on the nearby courts, and at night he and Taylor's 16-year-old son would step out to party with friends.
Taylor couldn't get him back in school or find him a regular job. She said Cunningham told her he didn't have a green card or a birth certificate because he had entered the United States illegally.

Just another "undocumented person" driven "into the shadows," huh? If only we had "driver's licenses for all" and amnesty now, this never would have happened, right, OBL? Yeah, right.
