Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Monday arrested more illegal aliens convicted of serious crimes like robbery and sexual offenses against a child, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire.
“Despite vile rhetoric and continued assaults on our ICE law enforcement officers, they continue to risk their lives every single day to arrest criminal illegal aliens convicted of child sex crimes, homicide, aggravated robbery, and other violent criminals. Our brave law enforcement are heroes Americans can be proud of,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Daily Wire.
“Our ICE officers are facing a more than 1000% increase in assaults against them as they carry out operations to remove criminal illegal aliens from American neighborhoods. Our brave law enforcement will not be deterred from enforcing the law and getting heinous criminals out of our country,” McLaughlin added.
Those arrested included:
- Javier Perez-Garcia, a 48-year-old illegal alien from Mexico convicted of indecent sexual contact with a child, in Hopkins County, Texas. Perez-Garcia was sentenced to eight years in prison.
- Jose Nehemias Zavala-Mejia, an illegal alien from El Salvador convicted of aggravated robbery in Finney County, Kansas.
- Carlos Vasquez-Castro, an illegal alien from Mexico convicted of criminal possession of a weapon, in Queens, New York.
- Adan Guerrero-Gonzalez, a 50-year-old illegal alien from Mexico convicted of voluntary manslaughter in Hardeeville, South Carolina. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
- Mirna Mendez-Escamilla, an illegal alien from Mexico, convicted of theft in Ogden, Utah.
Over the weekend, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law banning ICE agents from wearing masks while making arrests as he continues to oppose the Trump administration’s illegal immigration crackdown.
McLaughlin called the new law “despicable” and “a flagrant attempt to endanger” federal officers, and agency sources told The Daily Wire that the new law won’t stop them from masking their faces.
“Nice try by Newsom, but he knows it doesn’t apply to federal agents. He loves stirring the pot so that people find more ways to bring conflict to ICE,” said one ICE source.
