ICE Arrests Previously Deported Illegal Alien Wanted For Crimes Against Humanity

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) apprehended a previously deported illegal alien from El Salvador who was wanted in his home country for crimes against humanity including human trafficking.

ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in Boston, Massachusetts arrested the unnamed 50-year-old illegal alien on the wealthy island of Martha’s Vineyard.

“This Salvadoran fugitive is wanted by authorities in his native country to face some extremely serious and disturbing allegations,” ERO Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde explained in a statement.

“He attempted to hide out in Massachusetts and escape the law in his home country. He posed a substantial threat to the residents of Martha’s Vineyard,” Hyde added. “ERO Boston will continue to prioritize public safety in all of our New England communities by arresting and removing egregious noncitizen offenders.”

The illegal alien was deported in 1995 after he illegally entered the United States in 1994. He was then later convicted of disorderly conduct in Portland, Maine in 2003, and arrested again in 2009 in Framingham, Massachusetts by Boston ERO. He was arrested yet again in 2010 by Boston ERO and deported in 2011. ICE did not state when the unnamed illegal alien reentered the United States.

The arrest comes after Boston ERO apprehended four illegal aliens in Nantucket in September, each of whom had been charged with sex crimes. Of the four, two of them had been charged with sex crimes against children.

Data released by ICE indicates that as many as 425,000 convicted criminals could currently be residing in the United States illegally. Concerns about illegal alien crime hit a fever pitch following the deaths of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, and Laken Riley among others, each of whom is believed to have been killed by illegal aliens.

The flurry of illegal alien arrests by Boston ERO and the wave of migrant crime come amid an unprecedented crisis on both the southern and the northern borders. More than 10 million people have crossed the border under the Biden-Harris administration, with an estimated 1.7 million illegal immigrant gotaways recorded since Biden was inaugurated in 2021. There were a total of 415,000 reported gotaways for 2018, 2019, and 2020 during the Trump administration.
