Elkhorn, Wisconsin - On December 19, 2025, the Walworth County District Attorney's Office filed one felony count for bail jumping against Julie C. Valadez, 41, in addition to two prior felony charges filed on February 3, 2023 for interfering with child custody of other parent including party to a crime, and for interfering with custody after custody order including party to a crime regarding her then 15-year-old son Ethan D. Valadez (now 18) who ran away from his abusive father, Ricardo Valadez, a former pastor in Waukesha, Wisconsin.

At the time when Ethan ran away, he fled to Canada to be with his mother, Julie who was seeking asylum, Ethan also sought asylum in Canada, but he was forced by the Canadian immigration services to cross back involuntary into the U.S. with his father. Once, Ethan and his abusive father arrived at the Milwaukee Intentional Airport, it was decided that Ethan would stay with Julie's parents.

Later in May 2025, Julie decided to return to the U.S. and face the frivolous criminal charges filed in Walworth County against her. (Article link: http://hispanicnewsnetwork.blogspot.com/2025/08/41-year-old-julie-c-valadez-jailed-for.html)

History: Julie's 4 children were illegally taken away from her by Waukesha County Family Court Judge Michael Aprahamian, despite the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling that he failed to follow state law and was ordered to correct his error. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals District II on February 2, 2022 ruled that Waukesha County Judge Aprahamian erred in removing full custody from Julie in the divorce case and awarded full custody of their children to the father who was found to be a known domestic abuser and couldn't prove in court that he had complied with state law by submitting to a state certified batterer's treatment program and completing the program as required by law.

Judge Aprahamian was forced to remove himself from the divorce case in Julie Valadez v. Ricardo Valadez in Waukesha County. Then, Waukesha County Family Court Judge Ralph M. Ramirez was assigned to the case and he allowed for Judge Aprahamian's illegal decision to place Julie's 4 children with their abusive father to continue. To date, Judge Ramirez was later removed from the Valadez divorce case and Judge Jennifer R. Dorow took over the case who has also failed to abide by the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling to correct Judge Aprahamian's erroneous decision, and to allow Julie joint custody of her children as well.

Waukesha County judges Aprahamian, Ramirez and Dorow have never held a court hearing to determine, if Julie was an unfit mother, but rather their decisions to continue to ignore the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling to correct Judge Aprahamian's error continues today with no accountability. According to state law, abused children are not normally placed with an abusive parent for their safety, which in this case was Ricardo Valadez.

Julie Valadez and her family were recognized as the United Migrant Opportunity Services (UMOS) Hispanic Family of the Year in 2017.

In the Walworth County two criminal cases, Julie's attorney has requested the court to remove the Walworth County District Attorney's Office from the case and appoint a special prosecutor, according to Walworth County court records.

To date, the Walworth County District Attorney's Office has failed to provide Julie's attorney with the discovery documents.

If convicted, Julie is facing up to 6 years in prison and up to $10,000 in fines, or both for bail jumping, and she is also facing up to 12 years and 6 months in prison and up to $25,000 in fines for each count of interfering with child custody of other parent including party to a crime, and for interfering with custody after custody order including party to a crime.

Julie's next Walworth County court appearance for a preliminary hearing for bail jumping is February 12, 2026, and for the two other criminal charges proceedings is set for February 12, 2026 as well, and February 16, 2026 to February 19, 2026 for jury trial (12-person jury), according to Walworth County court records.

Justice for Julie and her 4 children!

Jesus Ochoa, 43, A U.S. Border Patrol agent And Raymundo Gutierrez, 35, A Border Protection Officer Publicly Executed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, In Minneapolis

Minneapolis, Minnesota - Both Jesus Ochoa, 43, a U.S. Border Patrol agent and Raymundo Gutierrez, 35, a Border Protection Officer have been identified by ProPublica as the two immigration enforcement agents from South Texas who on January 24, 2026 cold bloodedly killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, in an execution style in Minneapolis, which was video recorded.

Both Ochoa and Gutierrez have been placed on leave pending the outcome of the homicide of Pretti.

It hasn't been made public by the USDHS, which of the federal immigration officers shot Pretti in the back after he was disarmed by another agent. Pretti was no threat to the agents, according to video made public of the cold blooded execution of Pretti.

The U.S.DOJ division of Civil Rights has launched a Civil Rights investigation to find out if Pretti's civil rights were violated by both Ochoa and Gutierrez.

According to the Occupy Democrats Facebook page, Ochoa, 43, joined CBP in 2018 after years of wanting the job. According to his ex-wife, Angelica Ochoa, he graduated from the University of Texas–Pan American with a degree in criminal justice and spent much of his life in the Rio Grande Valley dreaming of becoming a Border Patrol agent. By the time the couple split in 2021, she said, he had become a gun enthusiast, owning roughly 25 rifles, pistols, and shotguns.

Gutierrez, 35, joined CBP in 2014 and works for the Office of Field Operations. He’s assigned to a special response team—a high-risk unit modeled after police SWAT teams. Records show both men were brought in from South Texas to enforce a crackdown that turned Minneapolis into a militarized zone.

Editor's note: The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office has ruled Alex Jeffrey Pretti's death a homicide.

Public Outcry Influence Change, Let's Do It! It's Our Obligation And Duty To Preserve Our Democracy Today, Tomorrow And For The Next Generation!

Public Outcry Influence Change, Let's Do It!

Trump and his MAGA corrupt White Nationalist administration are facing a national crisis after the recent Epstein files alleged that he forced a 13 or 14-year-old girl to perform oral sex on him and revealed that many of the MAGA oligarchy were connected to Epstein, and the current public outcry against the MAGA Gestapo USICE-CBP illegal acts and murders of multiple people including U.S. citizens by immigration enforcement masked agents.

Millions of anti-ICE protesters and students from public, private and voucher high schools have come out to peacefully protest around the nation, since the current events in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota.

Still missing from peaceful protests are the students from universities, colleges and technical colleges.

Also missing from protests are all the top music and rock entertainment singers, including the Latino/Hispanic entertainment singers, groups and bands.

Also missing from protests are all the film entertainment so called stars, actors and etc...

Get off your couches, locate a local organized protest event and flood the streets to preserve our Democracy, our Civil Rights and future of democracy.

Resist, rise-up, stand strong & united, march peacefully against the invasion of our cities and states by the Trump MAGA Gestapo USDHS-ICE-CBP regime, in order to influence change.

As we all know, the USDHS-ICE-CBP doesn't follow state and federal laws, don't follow federal court orders, and especially don't abide by the U.S. Constitution and due process for all.

Silence is complicit, rise-up and make a difference to be proud off!
