North Carolina Murder Suspect Was Admitted To US Through Biden’s CHNV Program

A Haitian man accused of murdering three family members in North Carolina was paroled into the United States under the Biden administration’s migrant flights program, according to federal immigration authorities.

On February 21, police in Fayetteville responded to a 911 call and discovered three victims inside a home, all suffering from fatal stab wounds. The deceased were identified as 77-year-old Beatrice Desir, a 13-year-old, and a 4-year-old. Authorities arrested 26-year-old Mackendy Darbouze, who was reportedly covered in blood when they arrived.

ICE officials later confirmed that Darbouze legally entered the country in July 2024 through the CHNV parole program, which allowed migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to fly into the U.S. and receive parole status. The Biden administration promoted the program as a way to reduce illegal crossings, but it has faced mounting criticism over security concerns.

Investigators say surveillance footage shows Darbouze moving through the home with a knife before police recovered a blood-stained weapon from his room. He does not speak English and required a Creole interpreter for questioning. ICE has since issued a detainer to prevent his release.

The CHNV program has come under increased scrutiny after multiple violent crimes were linked to individuals who entered under its provisions. Venezuelan migrant Jose Ibarra, who arrived through CHNV, was charged earlier this year in the killing of University of Georgia student Laken Riley.

Though President Donald Trump ended the program immediately after taking office, records indicate that over 50,000 migrants had already been paroled into the country. The case has reignited debate over the consequences of Biden-era immigration policies.
