ABC the ONLY Nightly Newscast to Report Illegal Alien Killing GA Woman

It is now time for our latest installment in a long-running series of Elitist Media nightly newscast omissions of horrific crimes committed by illegal aliens. We take cold comfort in reporting that tonight’s omission is a partial one. ABC’s World News Tonight was the only evening newscast to cover the death of a beloved Georgia school teacher after the vehicle she was driving was wrecked by an illegal alien fleeing ICE. Here is that report in its entirety, as aired on Monday, February 17th, 2026: WATCH: @ABCWorldNews is the only network nightly to cover the death of a highly respected Savannah, GA school teacher at the hands of an illegal alien fleeing ICE. Her name was Linda Davis. pic.twitter.com/JQ3I88YBVI — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) February 18, 2026 DAVID MUIR: Tonight, authorities say a schoolteacher was killed in a crash that they say was caused by a man trying to escape immigration agents in Savannah, Georgia. Police say agents were trying to pull over Oscar Vazquez Lopez when he hit the other car. Lopez was treated for injuries. Homeland Security tonight saying he was in the U.S. illegally, with an order of removal. The brief, while…well, brief, was more coverage of this horrific and needless crash than was provided on CBS and NBC. The CBS Evening News chose instead to cover a non-lethal traffic accident: the truck that flew off the road and into an Oregon home. NBC eschewed traffic news altogether- choosing instead to report on a toddler that fell into an arcade claw machine. We’re also thankful that the brief didn’t follow the style and language of the coverage of the crash on ABC’s website, which all but blamed ICE for the wreck as opposed to the illegal alien that caused it. Local officials questioned whether Davis' death might have been prevented. “I’ve always been and remain very concerned about the activities of ICE in cities, particularly where they’re not coordinating or communicating,” Savannah Mayor Van Johnson, a former police officer, told reporters Tuesday. “What this individual was wanted for, did it necessitate the end result?" Johnson said. Chester Ellis, chairman of the Chatham County Board of Commissioners, noted that county police are constrained by a policy that allows vehicle pursuits only when officers believe a suspect has committed or is attempting to commit a violent felony. “The no-chase policy is to help protect our citizens more than it is anything else,” Ellis told WTOC-TV. "So there may have been a different way to corner the individual so that he could not run, or that he could not cause the accident that took the life of Dr. Davis.” To answer the mayor’s question, nothing necessitated the end result, which could’ve been avoided had administrations decided to enforce immigration law as opposed to letting tens of millions of illegal aliens flood into the country. No responsibility is placed on the illegal alien committing the crime of vehicular manslaughter while fleeing and eluding law enforcement.  ABC’s brief would have benefitted from naming the highly respected teacher taken from her community, and from showing her face. Her name was Linda Davis.
