Prosecutors seeking death penalty for deported illegal alien indicted in murder of sister-in-law

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty involving an illegal alien who re-entered the U.S. after being deported and allegedly killed a Florida woman before fleeing to a sanctuary city.

Bangladeshi national Shahidul Islam, 44, was indicted Wednesday by a Lake County, Florida, grand jury on a premeditated first-degree murder charge for the May 2, 2025, shooting death of his sister-in-law, Monica Islam.

Hours after Monica Islam's disappearance on May 2, she was found with a gunshot wound to the head on the side of the road, according to State Attorney Bill Gladson of the Fifth Judicial Circuit.

She was last seen walking toward Shahidul Islam's car, and Gladson said authorities discovered he made numerous "suspicious" searches online on the morning of the killing.
