Soros prosecutor in danger of being removed after grieving mom’s desperate alarm: ‘Can’t believe this’

A Democratic prosecutor backed by George Soros faces a recall effort after an angel mom urged voters in her county to remove him from office "before another family pays the price." Earlier this year, Stephanie Minter, 41, was stabbed and killed at a bus stop in Fairfax County, Virginia .

An illegal immigrant from Sierra Leone, Abdul Jalloh, is accused of killing her.

Jalloh had a lengthy criminal record, including convictions for malicious wounding, identity theft, trespassing and assault.

He also had a prior charge of forcible rape.

The case comes as violent and sexual crime has increased in Fairfax County and has renewed scrutiny of Democratic Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano.

Descano won office with significant financial backing from the Soros family’s Justice and Public Safety PAC.

So far, the recall effort led by the victim’s mother, Cheryl Minter, has collected more than 12,000 signatures.

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Minter said she is calling for Descano to be removed from office because she believes "had they actually prosecuted these people, then Stephanie would still be alive." SOROS-BACKED DA'S LAX ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION POLICIES LED TO 'PREVENTABLE' BUS STOP STABBING MURDER: COMPLAINT Under Virginia law, organizers must gather valid signatures from registered voters equal to 10% of the votes cast in the last election, file a detailed petition alleging specific legal grounds and prove those grounds in circuit court before a judge can remove the prosecutor.

In her petition, Minter pointed to Jalloh’s more than 30 arrests and criminal charges and said that "again and again, Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano let him walk." Jalloh had been arrested more than 30 times and faced dozens of charges before Minter’s killing; some cases were dropped, while others resulted in convictions and jail time.

"Thirty times the system had a chance to stop him.

Thirty times," she said, adding, "I think about that every single day.

This was not an unavoidable tragedy.

It was the predictable consequence of decisions made by Descano." Speaking with Fox News Digital, Minter explained, "Stephanie was my world.

She was my only daughter.
