The suspect, 36-year-old Marcos Iriarte-Valdez, had allegedly attacked and killed 68-year-old Todd Stewart during a residential burglary on August 6, according to a statement from Contra Costa County. (RELATED: ICE Plans To Spend Up To $20 Million Dollars On Taser Gloves)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said that Iriarte-Valdez is a Venezuelan illegal alien and now resides in \u201csanctuary California.\u201d<\/p>\n

DHS said that Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom \u201cmust NOT RELEASE this murderer from jail and turn him over to us so we can REMOVE him from our nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The DHS statement was also accompanied by footage taken by security cameras that shows what appears to be Iriarte-Valdez getting out of an SUV while wearing a tactical vest and another video showing the same man wrestling Stewart over a knife outside of his home in broad daylight.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Court records showed that Iriarte-Valdez had been released the day before the stabbing on pretrial release after having been arrested and charged with two counts of residential burglary in April.<\/p>\n

Iriarte-Valdez has now received an additional felony charge of murder, with enhancements for killing during a burglary, using a knife and allegedly committing the crime while out on conditional release, court records show.<\/p>\n

The suspect\u2019s bail is now set at over $1 million, according to arrest records, and he has denied all charges, according to a county statement.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Iriarte-Valdez will also receive the same judicial officer, David E. Goldstein, that he had when he was released before the stabbing, court records showed.<\/p>\n

Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton told ABC7 Eyewitness News that her office will \u201cpursue this case with diligence and integrity to hold Iriarte-Valdez fully accountable under the law for this devastating act of violence.\u201d<\/p>\n

DHS went further, telling ABC7 that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had placed a detainer on a Venezuelan national, who they said also has citizenship in Spain.<\/p>\n
