Our<em> Corruption Chronicles <\/em>blog has the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/illegal-alien-sexually-assault-girls\/\">details<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; padding-left: 40px;\">The Virginia public school district that allowed a 19-year-old illegal immigrant to enroll in high school and sexually assault multiple girls is now paying a global law firm to \u201cinvestigate\u201d the crimes and offer legal advice, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/documents\/fcps-foia-responsive-records\/\">records<\/a> obtained by Judicial Watch. The big league firm, the state\u2019s largest, is billing taxpayers up to $1,850 an hour to tame blowback ignited by the scandal, which involves Fairfax High School in northern Virginia, a Washington D.C. suburb. The campus is part of Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS), the Old Dominion state\u2019s biggest public school system and ninth largest in the U.S. with an enrollment of 177,000 across 200 campuses. FCPS prides itself on serving a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcps.edu\/about-fcps\">\u201cdiverse population\u201d<\/a> that speaks 194 languages and the district with a budget of $3.9 billion spends $21,986 per student, which is above the national average of around $16,000. FCPS received dozens of complaints about female students being groped and sexually assaulted before the high school finally had the illegal immigrant arrested, information obtained by Judicial Watch reveals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; padding-left: 40px;\">Thanks to sanctuary policies that protect illegal immigrants\u2014even those convicted of serious crimes\u2014Virginia is inevitably a magnet for the undocumented. In this case an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, Israel Flores Ortiz, was welcomed into the community and allowed to enroll in 11th grade, despite his advanced age. Virginia officials claim Ortiz is 18 years old but federal authorities confirm he is 19 and living in Fairfax after entering the U.S. illegally in 2024 and released into the country under Biden\u2019s disastrous open border policies. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairfaxva.gov\/News-articles\/Police-News-Release\/Q1-JanFedMar-NR\/Q1-2026-NR\/Fairfax-High-School-Assault-Arrest\">Fairfax Police investigation <\/a>determined that Ortiz, \u201can adult male student assaulted numerous female juvenile victims.\u201d The illegal alien was transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center last month and charged with 13 counts of assault and battery. He is scheduled for a court hearing in early April. Initially Ortiz was charged with nine counts, but additional victims came forward, according to city officials. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is demanding that Fairfax County sanctuary politicians not release the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/news\/2026\/03\/16\/dhs-asks-fairfax-county-sanctuary-politicians-not-release-illegal-alien-pedophile\">\u201cillegal alien pedophile\u201d<\/a> who groped high school girls. \u201cThis 19-year-old criminal illegal alien should NOT have been attending a Virginia high school and allowed to prey on innocent teenage girls,\u201d said DHS Deputy Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; padding-left: 40px;\">The agency blasted Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger for ending cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and \u201csiding with criminal illegal aliens over American citizens.\u201d DHS confirms the recently elected governor has released pedophiles, rapists, gang members, and murderers onto Virginia\u2019s streets. Earlier this year Spanberger issued an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.governor.virginia.gov\/media\/governorvirginiagov\/governor-of-virginia\/pdf\/ed\/EO-12-Public-Safety,-Constitutional-Policing,-and-Community-Trust.pdf\">executive order <\/a>terminating all cooperation between state law enforcement agencies and corrections departments and ICE, the DHS law enforcement agency charged with protecting national security and public safety by, among other things, enforcing immigration laws. The directive will put more Virginians and law enforcement in danger, according to a Virginia congressman, who <a href=\"https:\/\/mcguire.house.gov\/media\/press-releases\/rep-john-mcguire-condemns-gov-spanbergers-executive-order-local-ice\">condemned the order<\/a>. \u201cThis action creates a dangerous situation where liberal paid protestors can interfere with federal officers who are working hard to get dangerous criminals off our streets,\u201d said Republican John McGuire, who is serving his first House term. \u201cLaw enforcement cooperation with local, state and federal agencies is vital to the safety of our Commonwealth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; padding-left: 40px;\">Spanberger\u2019s order will undoubtedly attract more criminal aliens like Ortiz, who will feel protected from federal immigration authorities and shielded from deportation. Even for a local government like Fairfax County that has long offered illegal immigrants sanctuary, failing to act against a repeat sexual predator on school grounds takes it to the next level. Now the school will spend taxpayer dollars to \u201cretain an independent outside law firm to conduct a comprehensive review,\u201d according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcps.edu\/news\/message-superintendent-regarding-fairfax-high-school\">statement<\/a> issued by FCPS Superintendent Michelle Reid. The goal, according to the superintendent, is \u201cto establish a clear understanding of what occurred, when it occurred, and confirm that all policies, procedures, and regulations were properly followed.\u201d The law firm hired by the district, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcguirewoods.com\/about-us\/\">McGuireWoods<\/a>, claims its experience in high-stakes litigation and government investigations is second to none. \u201cWe have represented Fortune 100 companies and individuals in some of the most prominent criminal, regulatory and investigative matters in recent years, repeatedly earning top national accolades,\u201d the firm\u2019s website states. The records obtained by Judicial Watch indicate the firm bills from $700 per hour for associates to $1,850 per hour for senior partners and that the firm agreed to offer FCPS some unspecified \u201cdiscount.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Until next week,<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom Fitton&#8217;s Judicial Watch Weekly Update | April 10, 2026 Judicial Watch Sues for Search Warrants in Rudy Giuliani RaidColorado Removes 372,000 Inactive Voters from its Rolls after LawsuitJudicial Watch Election Integrity Team to Monitor Hungary\u2019s ElectionsSchool District Where Illegal Alien Sexually Assaulted Girls Lawyers Up \u00a0 Judicial Watch Sues for Search Warrants in Rudy [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6101,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6100","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-conservative-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6100","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6100"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6100\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6100"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6100"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conservative-politics.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6100"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
