ICE Helps Arrest Haitian Man After Fort Myers Hammer Killing
Police say the suspect confessed and told investigators he intended to kill the clerk, and ICE lodged a detainer after the arrest.
- Fort Myers Police Department and ICE agents arrested 40-year-old Rolbert Joachim on Mango Street following the fatal hammer attack of gas station clerk Nilufar Yasmin last Thursday.
- Homeland Security confirmed Joachim is a Haitian who entered the United States in 2022 and was granted Temporary Protected Status by the Biden administration, which expired in 2024.
- Surveillance footage shows Joachim attacking Yasmin, a 51-year-old Bangladeshi mother of two, in the gas station parking lot last Thursday, where he bludgeoned her six times with a hammer.
- Acting Assistant DHS Secretary Lauren Bis stated the Biden administration's "reckless immigration policies" cost the victim her life, as Joachim faces second-degree murder charges in Lee County.
- ICE has lodged a detainer against the suspect, ensuring he will face deportation proceedings regardless of the outcome of his second-degree murder case in Florida courts.
