Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Friday, Joshua S. Santos, 31, of Milwaukee was charged with 1st-degree intentional homicide for the November 23, 2024 homicide of Lillian J. Feliciano, 58, whose body was left behind an alley at the 2000 block of S. 8 Street, according to Milwaukee police. 

If convicted, Santos is facing life without the possibility of parole. A $350,500 cash bail was set for Santos.

A judge ordered  a competency exam for Santos and scheduled a doctor's competency report hearing for December 19, 2024.

Santos admitted to police that he strangled Feliciano to death with a belt to keep her quiet, after he panicked during a sexual encounter and altercation inside his vehicle.

He then pushed her lifeless naked body out of his vehicle and fled the scene.

Later, a passerby in the alley saw Feliciano's nude body in the alley and called police (911).

Police were able to connect Santos to Feliciano's murder by video surveillance footage nearby in the allyway, a vehicle and license plate in the video that police were able to collect for evidence led police to Santos.

According to the criminal complaint, Santos had the woman's  body in the back seat of the vehicle covered in a blanket, the female owner of the vehicle (2003 Lexus ES Sedan) told police. She told police that Santos had driven her to work on November 22, 2024 for her second shift job at 2:00 p.m. and when he came back to pick her up at 11:00 p.m., she noticed that Santos was seating in the rear seat and a person was underneath a blanket. Santos told the owner of the vehicle, that the person under the blanket had vomited in the vehicle. She and Santos went to her place and the person under the blanket that smelled in a foul odor was left in the rear seat of the vehicle overnight because she thought that the person was drunk. The next day, she and Santos drove around the Southside and finally ousted Feliciano's nude body out of the vehicle in the alley behind the 2000 block of S. 8 Street.

Santos told police that he wanted to buy some cocaine and picked up Feliciano around S. 18 and W. Greenfield Ave. who was a known prostitute in the area. Santos admitted that Feliciano was able to buy $40 of drugs from someone driving a white van. Both Santos and Feliciano got high on the drugs. Santos says he took some cocaine and Feliciano did crack, but Feliciano became agitated and wanted more drugs and wouldn't shut up, so Santos admitted to snapping and wanted Feliciano to stop asking to get additional drugs and choked her with a belt until she was dead.

After getting rid of Feliciano's body the next day, he and the female owner of the vehicle bought some cleaning materials and cleaned the rear of the vehicle of feces and fluids left by Feliciano's body. 

The female owner of the vehicle told police that after cleaning up the rear of her vehicle she then left Santos at a bus stop.

Police haven’t reported, if the female owner of the Lexus ES Sedan will be facing charges for knowing of Feliciano's body and not reporting it to police.

Feliciano was listed as homeless, according to the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office.

Santos had an open warrant for his arrest since October 23, 2023 for failing to appear in a Milwaukee County court to face several misdemeanor charges, one for operating with prohibited alcohol concentration (PAC-2nd) and second for operating while intoxicated (2nd-OWI).

Latinotrumpers Proudly Come Out Of The Closet To Elect Donald J. Trump, A 34-count Convicted Felon As Their 47th U.S. President

Milwaukee metro area Latinotrumpers come out of the closet proudly wearing their MAGA political caps in 2024.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - Latinos for Trump 2024 come out of the closet by proudly wearing their political gear like the Make Amerikkka Great Again (MAGA) caps in support of electing the 34-count convicted felon Donald J. Trump as the 47th U.S. President. MAGAs and Latintrumpers were instrumental in electing Trump and favored his mass deportation platform stand of undocumented workers who have contributed nearly 100B in federal taxes.

Sivily Maritza Paz, 64, also known as Chef Paz posted in social media a photo of her and several friends including Priscilla Villalaz both originally from Peru and an unidentified female at a Trump rally in Wisconsin. Maritza Paz operates the Chef Paz Restaurant in West Allis, Wisconsin.

Maritza Paz and Villalaz are just some of the many Latinotrumpers in the Milwaukee metro area that helped Trump get elected in 2024.

Editor's note: Everyone in the U.S. who can legally vote have a right to support and elect their preferred candidates for local, state and federal political office including President. 

Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) reported about Sivily Maritza Paz also known as Chef Paz who posted several photos in social media, which in one she was wearing a red MAGA cap with two friends at a Trump rally, also a second photo with alleged MAGA friends at her Chef Paz Restaurant in West Allis, Wisconsin.

In no instance, did HNNUSA's report was to bully, harass, demonized, penalized or shame Paz as she falsely alleged in a comment post in response to the HNNUSA reporting, but she on her own willful act publicized those photos on social media for anyone to share of her wearing a red MAGA cap and labeling the posted photo as Latinos for Trump. 

See attached Paz response to HNNUSA for more information about what she wrote.

Amerikkkan Nazism, Political Lies And Fake Religious Practicing Sects Come Out Of The Closet, Undocumented Taxpayers In 2009 Prevented A Depression In The U.S.

Editorial:

The November 5, 2024 U.S. Presidential Election resulted in an unprecedented election of a 34-count convicted felon, which was endorsed by many law enforcement departments and agencies throughout the nation, indicating that law enforcement ideology has gone array from its premise of law and order, or what many were led to believe that the good always wins over the bad.

Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

November 19, 2024

U.S.A. - Within 24 hours of the U.S. Presidential Election in the country, it was learned that 34-count convicted felon Donald J. Trump (R) had won the election with 312 Electorial votes and the popular vote with more than 75.1M votes, 50.3%, compared to U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris (D) with 226 Electorial votes and with 71.8M of the popular votes, 48.1%, also indicating that Trump had won all 7 swing states shocking Trump himself who never expected to be the actual winner, according to earlier interviews, which Trump refrained himself from saying he would actually win compared to 2020, which he actually lost the election to Joseph "Joe" Biden (D), who was certified to be the Electoral College Vote winner and became the 46th President. This time around, Trump came out early and asked his Make Amerikkka Great Again (MAGA) cult supporters to vote early, which after the votes were counted, had made a difference for the MAGA/Republican candidate.

Also exit polls around the nation showed that more than 54% of Hispanic men, 37% of Hispanic women and a majority of White men 59%, and 52% of White women, and 45% of people of color in urban cities voted for the convicted felon, according to the NBC Exit Polls. 

ABC Exit Polls also reported in November 2024 that Trump gained support from people of color, Black men increased to 34% on 2024 compared to 15% in 2020, Black women 9% in 2024 compared to 8% in 2020, Latino men increased to 54% in 2024 compared to 38% in 2020, and Latino women increased to 48% in 2024 compared to 36% in 2020.

Other groups including religious sects like Christians, Evangelists and the Amish population turned out in large numbers to vote for Trump in 2024, indicating that they are definitely all fake religions (sects) and practice double standards of religious preaching and most likely have sold their own souls to the devil for greed, financial gain (profit) by intentionally advocating widespread racist and hate rhetoric aimed at fellow mankind, the undocumented tax paying immigrants. 

Well it seems that for years, most Christians and Evangelists have managed to preached the word of God and for their followers not to commit adultery, fraud, lie and engage in criminal activity, but in this case they all looked the other way and preached and prayed for the election of Trump, a 34-count convicted felon who committed fraud in order not to pay taxes, is a known pathological liar, found liable for sex assault, committed adultery multiple times, stole national secrets, is half a billion in debt, and had made more than 35,000 lies or mistruths while in his first term as 45th President and continued to lie after being rejected by the majority of the U.S. electorate in November 2020. It only shows that in November 2024, the Trump MAGA followers from the mentioned religious sects identifying themselves as Christians and Evangelists who don't actually practice what they preached and today, as a true testament have definitely engaged in widespread fake religious practices by supporting and voting to elect Trump, a 34-count convicted felon, which sents a strong message to the younger generations of their religious sects, that Evil triumphs over Good, especially, if you commit fraud, adultery, elicit activities and lie to get to the top. 

How ironic, especially to all those corrupt law enforcement departments, agencies and associations (police unions) that endorsed Trump for President in 2024.

Some of the reasons Trump MAGAs and Latintrumpers supported the convicted felon in November 2024 were, the Biden current inflation at 5.2% after taking office in 2021, Trump's rhetoric of open borders, which he advocated of Republicans/MAGAs in the U.S. Congress to reject a bipartisan border security bill that would have secured the border, and his racist and anti-immigrant hate rhetoric promising for mass deportations of more than 11M undocumented tax payers without any replacement workers to do jobs that White, Black and Latino Americans don't want to do in the agriculture fields, dairy farms, construction,  manufacturing, food industry and etc..

Trump advocated to enact the military to gather and detain the undocumented tax payers and their families for mass deportations, and he is also expected too enact tariffs, which would result in the increase of wages and production costs that will be passed on to the consumer. Trump also wants to extend tax cuts, that could stimulate spending, which most likely result with the national deficit to increase and federal debt that could drive up interest rates, according to Newsweek.

Will Trump lead the U.S. into a depression in 2025?

According to several White nationalist and supremacist nominees that Trump has selected for his cabinet in 2025, it is most likely the Latintrumpers and the MAGA cult will experience a second depression and economic disaster for the nation.

Trump will inherit a strong Biden economy in 2025 when he is sworned-in as the next U.S. President, and if he is smart enough, Trump will avoid implementing tariffs and instead of mass deportations of undocumented tax paying workers, Trump would consider in enacting a similar amnesty like former Republican President Ronald Reagan implemented in the 1980's or signing into law a comprehensive immigration reform bill with a path to citizenship for than 11M undocumented workers. Trump would continue to stabilize the economy by implementing an amnesty to more than 11M undocumented workers and help the country to prosper in his second term. But, those White nationalists and supremacists that surround him will definitely prevent Trump from succeeding due to the continued racist and hate rhetoric that has consumed the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party as a whole.

Economic stats by undocumented tax payers in the U.S.:

According to the institute On Taxation And Economic Policy (ITEP):

• Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Most of that amount, $59.4 billion, was paid to the federal government while the remaining $37.3 billion was paid to state and local governments.

• Undocumented immigrants paid federal, state, and local taxes of $8,889 per person in 2022. In other words, for every 1 million undocumented immigrants who reside in the country, public services receive $8.9 billion in additional tax revenue.

• More than a third of the tax dollars paid by undocumented immigrants go toward payroll taxes dedicated to funding programs that these workers are barred from accessing. Undocumented immigrants paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes, $6.4 billion in Medicare taxes, and $1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022.

• At the state and local levels, slightly less than half (46 percent, or $15.1 billion) of the tax payments made by undocumented immigrants are through sales and excise taxes levied on their purchases. Most other payments are made through property taxes, such as those levied on homeowners and renters (31 percent, or $10.4 billion), or through personal and business income taxes (21 percent, or $7.0 billion).

In 2014, Stephen Goss, the chief actuary of the Social Security Administration told Vice News that in the last decade, an estimated 11M undocumented immigrants reside in the U.S. and about 7M are unauthorized workers and 3.1M of those worked with fake or expired Social Security numbers and paid automatic payroll taxes to the federal government. In 2010, a $13B annual net contribution was made to the Social Security Trust Fund.

In the last ten years, unauthorized workers have paid an estimated $100B into the trust fund and most of the unauthorized workers will never benefit from their tax contributions later in life, according to Goss.

Most of the payroll tax funds collected from unauthorized workers are not claimed at the end of the year because they fail to file a tax refund with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The IRS transfers unclaimed tax refunds to a suspended account totalling billions of dollars.

In Wisconsin, a swing states that turned red in 2024, undocumented workers paid more than $90M of combined taxes per year to the State.

Lastly, in 2009 when U.S. President elect Barack H. Obama was in office, the U.S. was facing a growing recession, which he inherited from former President George W. Bush, and the country was headed to a depression because there was no money to keep the economy of the country running. Former President Obama and the U.S. Congress were able to take billions of dollars from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) suspended account, which all the federal tax refunds that are not reimbursed to undocumented tax payers are held. The IRS suspended account billions of tax dollars contributed by undocumented workers were then invested in the U.S. economy to prevent a depression in America.
