A Haitian migrant accused of killing three family members in Fayetteville, North Carolina, entered the United States through President Biden’s migrant flights program, authorities say, Fox News reports.

The Fayetteville Police Department charged 26-year-old Mackendy Darbouze with three counts of first-degree murder after the fatal stabbings of 77-year-old Beatrice Desir, a 13-year-old, and a 4-year-old on February 21.

Police responded to a home around 9 a.m. after receiving a report of a stabbing. When officers arrived, they found three victims suffering from stab wounds inside the residence. A local ABC station in Raleigh reported that Darbouze greeted police at the door with blood on his hands, face, and pants.

Authorities said three other children were inside the home at the time of the attack. Surveillance footage allegedly shows Darbouze walking around with a knife, and investigators later found a knife with blood on it in his room.

Darbouze was arrested at the scene and is being held at the Cumberland County Detention Center without bond.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) told Fox News that Darbouze entered the U.S. in July 2024 under the Biden administration’s Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela (CHNV) migrant parole program. ICE also stated that Darbouze does not speak English and was interviewed in Creole. An immigration detainer has been lodged against him.

The CHNV program, launched in 2022, initially allowed Venezuelan asylum seekers to be paroled into the U.S. for up to two years if they had financial sponsors. In 2023, the program expanded to include migrants from Cuba, Haiti, and Nicaragua, allowing up to 30,000 people per month from these countries to enter the U.S.

While the Biden administration has promoted the program for reducing land border crossings, critics argue it has not decreased overall migrant numbers, as those admitted through CHNV are required to fly into the country before being paroled in.

The program has drawn increased scrutiny following violent crimes committed by its beneficiaries. In another high-profile case, Jose Ibarra, a Venezuelan national paroled into the U.S. under CHNV in 2022, was charged with the murder of University of Georgia student Laken Riley
