The suspect in a brutal killing outside a Fort Myers, Florida, gas station has been captured, becoming another statistic in the national immigration debate, after federal officials confirmed the suspect had been released into the United States and later shielded from deportation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rolbert Joachim, a Haitian national, is accused of murdering Nilufa Easmin, known to friends and family as Yasmeen, by bludgeoning her with a hammer outside the Chevron station where she worked. The attack, captured on surveillance video, unfolded in broad daylight.<\/span><\/p>\n

This criminal illegal alien from Haiti BARBARICALLY MURDERED an innocent woman by hitting her in the head multiple times with a hammer.<\/p>\n

He was RELEASED into our nation by the Biden administration. Not only did they release this heinous murderer into our communities, but they\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/vbIKRNiIgx<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/P6NgTzCUQy<\/a><\/p>\n

According to the Department of Homeland Security, Joachim first entered the U.S. in August 2022 and was \u201ccaught and released\u201d at the border. Later that same year, an immigration judge issued a final order of removal against him. But instead of being deported, DHS says he was allowed to remain in the country under Temporary Protected Status, which expired in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis illegal alien barbarically hit this woman in the head multiple times with a hammer,\u201d said Acting DHS Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. \u201cThis heinous murderer was released into the country by the Biden administration. Not only did the administration release him, but they then gave him temporary protected status. Their reckless immigration policies cost this woman her life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Surveillance footage shows Joachim allegedly smashing a car windshield in the gas station parking lot. That vehicle, according to coworkers, belonged to Easmin. Moments later, she walked outside to confront him. He then rushed toward her and struck her in the head with a hammer. She collapsed, and investigators say he struck her repeatedly again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Police launched an intensive manhunt, ultimately locating Joachim nearby. \u201cI would just say one word \u2014 persistence,\u201d a Fort Myers police official said. \u201cWe were not going home until we found him. We had a cop on every single block in the last confirmed area, and we used every resource \u2014 from aviation support to canine units to boots on the ground.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Joachim is now in custody and being held without bond. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a detainer on him, and DHS says he will be deported following the resolution of his case.<\/span><\/p>\n

Neighbors described her as kind, devout, and consistent in her daily routine. \u201cShe was good,\u201d said M.D. Islam, a local man who knew her. \u201cShe came and did her prayer in the morning \u2026 just minutes before the attack.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody right now is sad,\u201d Islam added. \u201cNot only me or my Bangladeshi community \u2014 all of us. People around the world are very sad to see this news.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

A growing memorial now sits outside the gas station on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Highland Avenue, where flowers and candles mark the place where Easmin was killed.<\/span><\/p>\n

But alongside mourning, the case is raising broader questions, particularly about how an individual ordered deported was able to remain in the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to DHS<\/span><\/a>, Joachim\u2019s case reflects a wider system that has relied on release mechanisms and temporary protections rather than immediate removal. An immigration judge had already determined Joachim should be removed, yet he remained in the country for years after that order, long enough, tragically, for the April 3 killing to occur.<\/span><\/p>\n

For neighbors like Islam, the policy debate is secondary to the senselessness of the violence. \u201cI don\u2019t know why some people become like this,\u201d he said. \u201cI cannot explain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
