Left On A Church Doorstep: Newsom's Officials Investigating Group Of Migrants In Sacramento Who Arrived 'Without Warning'

The central questions of this probe are to ascertain whether any illicit activities, such as kidnapping, took place and to identify the responsible parties for their transportation.

Newsom, a Democrat, highlighted in his official statement that these migrants had an exhausting journey, being ferried from Texas to New Mexico and ultimately to Sacramento. He stated they were unexpectedly deposited on a local church's premises.

The Governor emphasized his commitment to ensuring that these individuals are accorded respect and dignity in collaboration with the Mayor's office, local and nonprofit entities.

In his bid to uncover the mystery surrounding their journey, Newsom affirmed that his administration and the California Department of Justice would scrutinize who financed this group's travel. They would also determine whether the organizers of this trip had deceived anyone with dishonest guarantees or had breached any criminal laws, including those relating to kidnapping.

Meanwhile, Attorney General Rob Bonta shared in a separate statement that the migrants carried documents alleging their origin from Florida. Bonta underlined his office's determination to ascertain the precise conditions under which these individuals were ushered into California, and he did not rule out the possibility of potential criminal or civil action against the individuals or groups that facilitated this transport.

At this stage, the identity of the party responsible for the migrants' move remains unknown. This incident comes amidst multiple states, including New York City, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., accepting migrants into their sanctuary cities as the U.S.-Mexico border sees an uptick in migrant crossings. Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican, pledged to continue transporting migrants to these cities until the federal government resolves the border crisis.

This migration issue has also permeated states distant from the Mexican border. Florida Governor and presidential aspirant Ron DeSantis, a Republican, transferred migrants from his state to Martha's Vineyard last autumn. Colorado's Democrat Governor Jared Polis dispatched migrants to sanctuary cities earlier this year.
