White House admits to wrongly accusing man of child sex crimes in shocking error
The White House was forced to admit they made a shocking error after accidentally accusing a man of a child sex crime.
In a now deleted post on the White House X account, it had listed “worst of the worst” immigrants arrested in Minnesota and shared an image of alleged undocumented immigrants, The Daily Beast reported. One of the suspects featured on the post was Victor Manuel Carranza. Carranza, who is a Honduran national convicted of larceny and identity theft, was falsely accused by the White House of having committed child sex crimes.
After NOTUS pointed out the apparent errors, the White House deleted the images from an erroneous post on Jan. 26.
"The White House’s X account has 3.6 million followers — prior to deletion, the post had been viewed at least 257,000 times," NOTUS reported. "The graphics were shared by other X users and at least two news organizations. And although a White House official acknowledged the error, they said they will continue to post about individual arrests."
The Trump administration has not issued an apology — and has no plans to do so.
“In the process of highlighting the dangerous criminal illegal aliens arrested by law enforcement, two images of criminal illegal aliens were mistakenly swapped,” a White House official told NOTUS. “The error has been corrected, and the Administration will continue publicizing the dangerous criminal illegal aliens being removed from our streets.”
