Man Accused in Fairfax Bus Stop Killing Entered US Illegally, Had Previous Violent Charges Dropped

Abdul Jalloh, an illegal immigrant with over 30 arrests, was charged after fatally stabbing Stephanie Minter at a Fairfax County bus stop last month, officials said.

  • At a Hybla Valley bus stop last month, detectives charged Abdul Jalloh with second-degree murder after the victim was found stabbed, Fairfax County Police said.
  • DHS said on Sunday, March 1, that Jalloh is in the U.S. illegally and described him as a `career criminal` with over 30 arrests in Fairfax County.
  • Evidence reviewed by investigators indicates surveillance video and witness interviews helped detectives identify the suspect after he and the victim were last seen getting off a bus, and he was arrested at a Richmond Highway liquor store after an employee called 911.
  • ICE asked Virginia authorities not to release Jalloh without notifying them and said it lodged a detainer in 2020 and obtained an order of removal, prompting federal enforcement action.
  • Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney Steve Descano's office previously dropped most charges against Jalloh despite a past malicious wounding conviction, and county policy prevents police from sharing information with ICE, with critics citing `We got three problems` as said by Herrity.
