(TheConservativeTimes.org) – Illegal aliens have struck gold by ransacking World Cup-winning soccer star Olivier Giroud’s Los Angeles home, running off with half a million dollars in stolen jewelry.
This brazen burglary is just the latest in a string of attacks on American athletes by organized crime groups from South America, exposing the dire consequences of the border crisis.
Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) describes Giroud as “one of the greatest goal-scorers of his generation” and as someone who has had an illustrious career.
He has scored 285 goals in 716 club matches and holds the record for most goals scored for the French national team.
He was part of the French team that won the 2018 World Cup. Now, as he prepares for his second season with LAFC, he finds himself a victim of America’s lax immigration policies.
Giroud’s wife was the one to discover their West LA home had been violated, with burglars smashing through an upstairs bedroom window.
The Los Angeles Police Department responded to the distressing call, confirming a break-in had occurred.
Around $500,000 worth of jewelry, including more than 10 men’s luxury watches, was snatched from the French soccer player’s residence.

Giroud, a 38-year-old striker who joined LAFC in August 2024, is among several high-profile athletes recently targeted by similar burglaries.
The FBI has linked these crimes to organized theft groups from South America, known for their ability to bypass security systems.
Other victims of this crime wave include NFL stars Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Joe Burrow, NBA sensation Luka Dončić, and NHL players Tyler Seguin and Evgeni Malkin.
The FBI and NFL have advised athletes to enhance their home security measures, but this reactive approach fails to address the root cause of the problem.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the real-world consequences of open borders and weak immigration enforcement.
It is not just about stolen jewelry but about the safety and security of American communities.
While authorities carry out their investigation, Giroud and LAFC gear up for their upcoming match against Minnesota United.
