Illegal aliens were released from county jail despite ICE detainer — and then allegedly shot young mom to death
The Department of Homeland Security says that local California officials ignored a federal immigration detainer request against two illegal aliens who went on to kill a single mom.
Kembery Chirinos-Flores, 24, was found bleeding from gunshot wounds in a car in Sunnyvale on Jan. 7. She was pronounced dead and left behind a 5-year-old son.
‘These illegal aliens should have never been able to commit these horrific killings and must NEVER be released from jail into American communities.’
In March, the Sunnyvale Dept. of Public Safety announced that two illegal aliens were arrested and charged with her murder. They were identified as Franquin Inestroza-Martinez and Gerzon Jose Chirinos-Munguia.
Detectives said they found the shotgun they believe to be the murder weapon.
On Monday, DHS excoriated the Santa Clara County “sanctuary politicians” for releasing both of the suspects while refusing their ICE detainer requests.
“Instead of cooperating with ICE, Santa Clara sanctuary politicians REFUSED to honor ICE’s arrest detainer and will not notify ICE when these murderers are released from jail,” reads a statement from Acting Assistant Sec. Lauren Bis. “This insanity of refusing to turn cold-blooded killers over to ICE must end.”
Inestroza-Martinez illegally entered the U.S. in 2013, was caught, and then was removed, according to DHS. He was originally from Honduras.
In 2018, he was caught illegally entering again and was then removed. He entered illegally into the U.S. a third time, but it’s unknown when that was.
Inestroza-Martinez also had a warrant for his arrest in relation to the homicide of 55-year-old Esteban Vicente Sacalxot in New Jersey in 2025. Sacalxot was also allegedly killed with a shotgun.
Chirinos-Munguia, also from Honduras, was caught illegally entering the U.S. in 2015 and was removed. He entered the U.S. a second time at some unknown date.
In 2018, he was arrested for battery and false imprisonment. Then in 2019, he was arrested in Santa Clara County for domestic battery and threatening crime with the intent of terrorizing.
DHS says he was released despite the detainer requests, and he allegedly went on to kill Kembery Chirinos-Flores, who is the mother of his child.

“A man lost his life, and a child is now without a mother. These illegal aliens should have never been able to commit these horrific killings and must NEVER be released from jail into American communities,” Bis added.
The boy was taken into custody of Child Protective Services after his father was arrested for the murder of his mother.
“DHS law enforcement is protecting American communities every day from another senseless tragedy like this taking place in another town, to another family,” DHS concluded.
