Suicide — individual or societal — is a choice

Venezuelan migrant arrested in sanctuary city for 6th time in 13 months days after prosecutors drop charges

A Venezuelan migrant has been arrested for the sixth time in the past year for allegedly robbing a woman at gunpoint, just days after prosecutors in an Illinois sanctuary city dropped additional charges against him. 

Edmonds Peraza Cortez, 25, is facing one felony count of armed robbery with a firearm, according to the Chicago Police Department.

Cortez allegedly was riding a bike on April 11 when he approached a 41-year-old woman, brandishing a gun and yelling, "Money! Money!" 

Cortez allegedly demanded the woman hand over her cellphone, wallet and electric scooter. 

Police located and arrested Cortez less than an hour after the alleged robbery. The incident was caught on surveillance footage, CWB Chicago reported. 

Cortez has been arrested six times in just 13 months, with prosecutors dropping four of the cases against him.
