Exclusive: ICE Nabs Violent Criminal Illegal Aliens in Nationwide Sweep

Under Secretary Kristi Noem’s leadership, the Department of Homeland Security is working on removing illegal aliens with criminal records. A DHS press release provided to Newsmax announced a series of high-profile arrests nationwide on Saturday, contributing to the over 100,000 total arrests thus far.

In a continued push to protect public safety and enforce immigration law, the Department of Homeland Security detailed multiple arrests of illegal aliens with violent criminal histories. The operations, carried out by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents across several states, resulted in the capture of individuals convicted of crimes ranging from child molestation to homicide.

“Child molesters. Murderers. Sex offenders. Our ICE officers put their lives on the line every day to arrest and remove these types of barbaric criminal illegal aliens from American communities,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “President Trump and Secretary Noem will not allow criminal illegal aliens to terrorize American citizens. We will continue to use every tool available to get these thugs out of our country.”
