Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita investigates illegal immigration’s impact on Hoosiers
AG Rokita announced he is investigating the impact of illegal immigration on Hoosiers. In this second trip to the border in three months, AG Rokita is gathering evidence of the border crisis and its damage, ahead of further legal action. Attorney General Rokita will meet with other likeminded attorneys general from around the country while in Texas to determine next steps to address the border crisis.
“The Biden Administration and the radical left are tearing our country apart by incentivizing lawlessness and breaking the rule of law, which is the opposite of what makes our country great,” said Rokita. “These hallmarks of American Exceptionalism are ignored when illegal immigration is practically encouraged.”

The arrest comes after Popa’s Butler University email was used to upload child porn to an online program, and the results of a served search warrant of Popa’s home, revealed additional illicit images of children between the ages of 6 and 10.
