FIRST ON FOX: Authorities in California have arrested a thrice-deported illegal immigrant in connection with a deadly house fire that killed a mom and two of her three of her children last month, according to a law enforcement source.
Stockton police announced the arrest of Jose Carmen Cardona, 59, Friday morning.
A source with knowledge of the investigation tells Fox News Digital the suspect has been deported three times and returned to the U.S. anyway.

The victims have been identified as Lisbeth Gutierrez-Salazar, 32, and her two sons, Juan Gutierrez-Salazr, 10, and Julian Cardona-Gutierrez, 7. A third boy whose name was not immediately released is the only one who escaped.
They were all asleep in their mobile home when Cardona allegedly set it on fire.
Cardona was dating the mother, but he was not the father of the children, police said.

He fled the area and police requested help from the U.S. Marshal Service after obtaining an arrest warrant on June 28, according to authorities.
A nationwide manhunt came to an end Friday with his capture in Modesto, about 30 miles away from the crime scene.
U.S. Marshal for the Eastern District of California Lasha Boyden said that Cardona was arrested without incident at a bus stop.

Cardona faces charges of murder, attempted murder and child endangerment, as well as special circumstances allegations of multiple murder, arson and torture, which make him eligible for the death penalty.
Boyden shared her condolences with the family and called Cardona a “violent offender.”
“I hope that the capture of this violent offender will bring some sense of justice to you and your loved ones,” Boyden said in a news conference Friday afternoon. “This horrific act of violence was felt by all not just in the Central Valley but across our nation.”

The man was transported to Kualoa Regional Park, where Honolulu Emergency Medical Services took over care and continued advanced treatment.
No additional information about the man’s condition was immediately available.

Virtual fencing study targets public land grazing conflicts | University of Idaho
Researchers hope the project will provide a case study demonstrating that much of the permanent interior fencing could be removed from federal grazing allotments and be effectively replaced with virtual fencing.
The first season of the planned two-year study started in mid-April and will conclude in October. The Foundation for America’s Public Lands funded the project with a $235,000 grant.
Furthermore, the ability to track livestock movements via the collars will provide the team with insights into other research questions. The researchers want to use data from their collared cattle to better understand important animal traits and to assess different management approaches.
“We’ve seen that where cattle spend the most time is not where they’re doing most of their grazing,” Ellison said. “We’re starting to learn little things like that by evaluating the data we’ve collected so far.”
The research team also includes K. Scott Jensen, an area Extension educator specializing in rangeland management and livestock grazing; Hadley Dotts, a research associate; and three graduate students — Henning Krúger and Maxine Walas, master’s students in animal science, and Abigail McClaflin, who is pursuing a master’s in water resources.
Ellison began research using virtual fencing in 2023, when she started a project on federal grazing allotments through which a wildfire had burned the previous grazing season, and in subsequent years, combined targeted grazing with collared cattle and aerial herbicide spraying to control cheatgrass. The team also used the collars to keep cattle away from critical fish habitat during the spawning season.
Ellison is also the lead on a separate, $181,000 grant from the Foundation for America’s Public Lands also involving virtual fencing. The project, scheduled to begin in March 2027, will entail grazing collared cattle in strips along roadways to establish wildfire fuel breaks.
