Tennessee Wants To Lead The Nation In Fighting Illegal Immigration. It May Have A Shot.

2026-03-28

Weren’t ICE and Homeland Security helping restore order to the streets not long ago, rounding up criminals, both illegal and otherwise, much to the gratitude of the previously loyally Democratic locals?

[Daily Wire] NASHVILLE—It was a humid night in June 2024 when Matt Carney encountered a pair of men rummaging through his truck.

Carney, who owned the popular chicken restaurant Smokin’ Thighs, went to confront the men. As he did, they sped out of the parking lot, striking Carney and knocking him onto the street. As police hunted for the men behind the fatal hit-and-run, Carney succumbed to his injuries in the hospital.

Eventually, Nashville police arrested Ulises Martinez, first confirmed by The Daily Wire to be an illegal immigrant from Mexico, and charged him with murder over the incident. Martinez admitted to police that he was driving the car that fatally struck Carney, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement slapped a detainer on him.

Smokin’ Thighs, which Carney built from the ground up, closed a few short months after his death. Martinez has yet to face justice as his case makes its way through the Davidson County court system.
