Halloween weekend takes out sex offenders, murderers and kidnappers

First on Fox: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continued its crackdown on the “worst of the worst” of dangerous illegal immigrants over the Halloween holiday, arresting criminals convicted of having sex with minors, sexual assault, kidnapping, murder and other serious crimes.

The Department of Homeland Security highlighted that 70 percent of ICE arrests are of criminal illegal aliens accused or convicted of a crime in the United States, according to a statement to Fox News Digital.

One illegal offender, Sisawang Khambonhiuang, from Laos, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement after being found guilty of having illegal sex with a minor in San Diego. Just to the north, another criminal illegal alien, Milton Rene Méndez Arevalo, from Guatemala, was arrested after being convicted of kidnapping in Los Angeles.

In Houston, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested more than 120 illegal immigrants over the weekend, the agency arrested illegal Honduran criminal Hector Eugenio Ramirez Martinez, who was convicted of indecency with a child in Harris County. Francisco Nava Garcia, from Mexico, was arrested in Houston after being found guilty of assaulting a family/household member.

ICE also continued its crackdown in Florida, where it arrested Lazaro Mateo Ruiz, of Cuba, who was convicted of murder, weapons offenses and robbery in Miami-Dade County. On Florida’s Gulf Coast, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Juan Gomez Gutierrez, of Colombia, who was convicted of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute five kilograms of cocaine while on a ship in Tampa.

In Illinois, a sanctuary state resisting the Trump administration’s crackdown, ICE arrested Brigidio Oviedo Gomez Garcia, of Guatemala, who was convicted of aggravated domestic battery/strangulation, domestic battery, and drunken driving in Wheaton, a suburb of Chicago.

Commenting on the arrests, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin noted that, in the face of opposition from pro-sanctuary politicians, 70 percent of all ICE arrests were of illegal aliens accused or convicted of a crime in the United States.

“President Trump and Secretary Noem unleashed ICE to remove the worst criminal illegal aliens from American communities,” McLaughlin told Fox News Digital.

“Despite the Democratic government shutdown, ICE continues to arrest criminal illegal aliens across the country,” she continued. “While Americans were enjoying their weekends, ICE was hard at work removing the worst from our streets — including child molesters, murderers, and kidnappers.”
