Tim Walz Says He’s Not Even Familiar With Minnesota Women Killed By Illegal Immigrants

Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz told Republican Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert on Wednesday that he was unfamiliar with the names of two Minnesotan women allegedly killed by illegal immigrants.

During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Boebert asked Walz if he knew who Victoria Eileen Harwell and America Mafalda Thayer were. Walz said he did not believe he was aware of either victim.

“These are Minnesota women who were brutally killed by illegal aliens in your state,” Boebert said. “You don’t know who they are, so I would also assume that you did not attend their vigils or speak out to their families when they were brutally killed by illegal aliens in your state.”

“I’m not familiar with both of these,” Walz replied. “No, congresswoman.”

Harwell was allegedly killed by Ecuadoran illegal immigrant German Llangari Inga in a vehicular homicide in August of 2024, according to a May 20 Department of Homeland Security press release.

“Despite a lack of cooperation from local Minnesota authorities, ICE arrested criminal illegal alien German Llangari Inga,” former Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said at the time. “This criminal illegal alien has been evading prosecution for vehicular homicide that resulted in the death of Minnesota mom, Victoria Eileen Harwell.”
