EXCLUSIVE:<\/strong> An Illinois Angel Mom whose daughter died after a tragic encounter with an illegal alien<\/a> last year revealed to Fox News Digital details of a conversation she had with President Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee that convinced her he’s the man for the job.<\/p>\n

“I immediately felt so pulled towards him,” Jennifer Bos said, speaking about Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche<\/a>. “You get a certain energy from people, and he is just the kindest… He listened to my story very intently, and you could just see his mind ticking like, ‘what are we going to do about this?'”<\/p>\n

Bos’ daughter, Megan Bos, was just 37 when she was found dead in April 2026, stuffed in a garbage can and soaked in bleach, 51 days after she disappeared. An illegal alien from Mexico, Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez, was charged with several felonies in relation to Megan’s death after her body was found on his property.<\/p>\n

Mendoza-Gonzalez is accused of abuse of a corpse, two counts of concealing the death of a person and obstructing justice. He claims Megan overdosed, and insists he had nothing to do with her death.<\/p>\n

Due to Illinois’ sanctuary policies, Mendoza-Gonzalez walked free after an initial hearing, infuriating Jennifer. He was tracked down and re-arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> (ICE) in Indiana in July 2026, just days after Jennifer shared her tragic story with Trump when they crossed paths at an anti-fentanyl bill signing.<\/p>\n

Jennifer and her husband are now raising Megan’s daughter, who was five years old when her mother died.<\/p>\n

Though, as Jennifer noted, there is nothing Blanche can do to help her family specifically, since her daughter has already tragically died, she is confident the attorney general nominee<\/a> understands the plight of Angel Families everywhere.<\/p>\n

“We’re trying to make a difference for people who haven’t been touched by this kind of tragedy, who haven’t been touched be the violence that can be from an illegal immigrant,” Jennifer said.<\/p>\n

She said she thinks Blanche, placed as acting attorney general<\/a> after Pam Bondi’s ouster, is “being true to the job he’s supposed to do.”<\/p>\n

“I trust that he’s doing the right thing for the right reasons,” she continued.<\/p>\n

Jennifer testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee<\/a> just 24 hours after Democrats on the committee attempted to shred Blanche’s credibility, and paint him as a personal yes-man for Trump.<\/p>\n

She told Fox News Digital those same Democrats have completely ignored families whose lives have been forever altered by the death of a relative at the hands of an illegal alien, including hers. She didn’t speak to any Democrats on the panel before her Thursday testimony.<\/p>\n

“You know, before President Trump came into office, Angel Families were inconvenient truths,” she said. “They didn’t want to acknowledge the damage that was being done by having open borders and by having people here illegally<\/a>, that they couldn’t track, they couldn’t identify.”<\/p>\n

She described Republicans and independents as “welcoming,” and said they’re always open to meetings and helping Angel Families tell<\/a> their stories.<\/p>\n

Jennifer came face-to-face with her own senator, Dick Durbin, D-Ill., who is the Ranking Member of the Judiciary Committee,<\/a> during Thursday’s hearing.<\/p>\n

“I was very frustrated listening to my own senator when he addressed me directly, giving his apologies, because all I could think of was, you know, I’ve been out in the public, I’m everywhere, I have been for the last year and a half, yet never once has he said anything to me, reached out to me or anything of the like,” said Jennifer.<\/p>\n

She said the issue of illegal alien crime is “very nonpartisan,” noting that it can happen to anyone regardless of political ideology and expressing disappointment that both sides of the political aisle can’t come together to solve the problem.<\/p>\n

Jennifer did say that Durbin approached her to chat after the hearing, and that she is hopeful the pair can collaborate on solutions in the future.<\/p>\n

During the hearing, Jennifer said Blanche is listening to Angel Families<\/a>, and that they’re “being taken seriously.”<\/p>\n

“I’m asking the committee not to wait until another mother is sitting where I am, confirmed Todd Blanche,” she said. “He is a leader who will uphold the law, honor victims, confront dangerous criminal organizations, and fight to give other American families the safety and lasting protection that came too late for mine.”<\/p>\n

“I couldn’t save my daughter. But Todd Blanche as attorney general, he might save yours because next time, it could be your child. It could be your family. It could be you.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
