ICE Continues To Round Up ‘Depraved’ Illegals In California Despite Dem Shutdown

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested more illegal alien criminals on Thursday as the Democrat-led shutdown continued into its fourth week. 

In a “worst-of-the-worst” update provided to The Daily Wire, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) highlighted five illegals convicted of crimes ranging from sexual assault to robbery picked up by ICE. 

“Every day, and despite the Democrats’ government shutdown, our ICE officers are arresting pedophiles, sexual assailants, murderers and violent criminals,” said DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “It is unimaginable to think sanctuary politicians put these monsters and sickos over their own constituents.”

According to DHS, the arrests included: 

• Froilan Mejia-Olvera, an illegal alien from Mexico, convicted of sexual assault in Collin County, Texas
• Juan Enamorado-Leiva, an illegal alien from Honduras convicted of second-degree murder in Durham County, North Carolina
• Jose Alfredo Gomez-Vallecios, an  illegal alien from El Salvador, convicted of robbery in Los Angeles County, California
• Alejandro Gonzalez-Ortiz, an illegal alien from Mexico, convicted of lewd or lascivious act with a child under 14 in Santa Ana, California
• Quoc Ky Luong, a criminal illegal alien from Vietnam, convicted of robbery in Pasadena, California

“American citizens deserve better. Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, we are making America safe again one depraved criminal illegal alien removal at a time,” McLaughlin said.

The California arrests come as state Democrats have resisted the Trump administration’s efforts to crack down on illegal immigration in the Golden State. 

While California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that bans ICE agents from wearing masks during arrests, Reps. Nancy Pelosi and Kevin Mullin have threatened that ICE agents could be detained as President Donald Trump considered a major immigration operation in San Francisco. 

In a letter to California officials, U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told them to “abandon this apparent criminal conspiracy.”

“The Department of Justice views any arrests of federal agents and officers in the performance of their official duties as both illegal and futile,” Blanche wrote.
