ICE Tells Spanberger: Don't Free Migrant Facing 21 Child Porn Counts

Jorge Gilberto Zamorano-Burciaga, arrested August 12 in Rocky Mount, held DACA protection that expired back in 2018.

  • Franklin County Sheriff's Office arrested Zamorano-Burciaga August 12 in Rocky Mount, Virginia, after an investigation.
  • Charges span 21 counts: nine possession, six production, three sale, two obscene-material counts, one transmission.
  • ICE lodged its detainer August 13, asking Spanberger to keep him jailed for removal.

Why it matters: Whether Spanberger honors this detainer decides whose authority the jail actually answers to.
