Obiden’s America: Kristi Noem’s Gucci Purse Snatcher Is a Chilean Illegal Alien Who Served Time in the U.K.

Mario Bustamante Leiva, a Chilean illegal alien has been confirmed to be the purse thief who on Easter Sunday snatched DHS Secretary Kristi Noem‘s Gucci bag, which contained her DHS badge, passport, driver’s license, mobile phone, and $3,000 in cash.

As has been further revealed: the perp served three years in a London prison for other crimes.

Who woulda thought?

A Daily Mail article from 2015 says Bustamante Leiva is Chilean who stole wallets, computers, and phones in London.

Bustamante Leiva’s MO has not changed over the years, as that 2015 Daily Mail article described.

He would enter the premises wearing a flat cap, large coat and backpack or large bag over his shoulder, even in the height of summer.

He would then stand or sit close to a person who had their bag on the floor or the back of a chair.

He would observe them and at an opportune moment remove the bag with his foot or the back of his hand.

‘fter he obtained the bag he would hide it under his coat and leave the premises with the bag and its contents.

Days after the theft, on Wednesday, April 23, Noem documented her experience to podcaster Vince Coglianese:

‘It was kind of shocking, actually, because it was sitting right by my feet. I actually felt my purse—he hooked with his foot and drug it a few steps away and dropped a coat over it and took it,’ the Homeland Security Secretary recounted to podcaster Vince Coglianese Wednesday.

‘I thought it was my grandkids kicking me in the legs, but it was very professionally done,’ she added[.]

Noem was not wrong. Bustamante Leiva is a professional thief who, in 2014, bopped around London and stole from the well-heeled and toney. The magistrate who handled his trial said he was dishonest to his “fingertips,” and decided he needed to be locked up.

So, how did Bustamante Leiva get into America? He was a gift of the four-year Obiden border crisis where the “best and brightest” aliens from all countries illegally overran our borders, sucked up government resources and services, and either disappeared without a trace, or set up their criminal networks. Tren de Aragua are the big fishes, Bustamante Leiva an example of a small one. As Twitchy notes, you really cannot make this stuff up.

Bustamante Leiva may be the best at what he does, but he certainly is not the brightest. Why would anyone knowingly steal the bag of the government official who can throw you into Gitmo or deport you on a dime?

However Bustamante Leiva entered the country, the point is he is one of those criminal illegal aliens the Left has been claiming do not exist.
