Federal authorities have arrested more than 1,000 in Minnesota, including alleged murderers, rapists, pedophiles and gang members, after sending a surge of agents to the state in its "massive" response to the rampant fraud still being uncovered. Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital that since the agency "surged law enforcement" to Minnesota last week, it "has already made more than 1,000 arrests of murderers, rapists, pedophiles, and gang members." DHS said that among those arrested was a Somali criminal illegal alien named Liban Ali Osman, 43, who the agency said was convicted of robbery in Columbus, Ohio. Osman was sentenced to three years in prison and has had a final order of removal since May 17, 2011. Another, Vannaleut Keomany, a 59-year-old criminal illegal alien from Laos, arrested in the crackdown, was convicted of two counts of rape also in Columbus. DHS said that Keomany was sentenced to seven years in prison. Keomany has had a final order of removal since Dec. 17, 2009. FRAUD FALLOUT FORCES DEMOCRATIC GOV.
