🚨 A COP AND HIS GIRLFRIEND ARE DEAD: Bridgeport Officer Cooper Whiteside, 38, and Brittany Islami, 34, a mother of three, killed head-on in Danbury.
The driver charged, Melissa Ramirez-Romero, is in the country illegally. ICE lodged a detainer.
Her blood alcohol was 0.14, nearly twice the limit. She also tested positive for cannabis. She crossed the double yellow at 63 in a 45.
Connecticut is a sanctuary state. Its Trust Act limits when local police can work with ICE.
A cop is dead. Three kids lost their mother. And the state's politicians are still arguing about cooperation with the people trying to deport her.
