Summary

Kayla Hamilton was just a 20-year-old Maryland women when she was tied-up, sexually assaulted and strangled to death by 17-year-old illegal migrant Walter Javier Martinez. Martinez was in the U.S. claiming Unaccompanied Alien Child (UAC) status. A new bill, the 'Kayla Hamilton Act', introduced by Congressman Russell Fry (R-SC) would create stronger restrictions on how HHS assess illegal migrants who are minors by requiring HHS to contact the consulate or embassy of a UAC’s home country to determine any criminal history or gang affiliation. FOX's Ryan Schmelz speaks with Congressman Russell Fry (R-SC), Representative for South Carolina’s Seventh Congressional District, who tells us more about the 'Kayla Hamilton Act' and how it strengthens our migrant vetting process.
