The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced Thursday the arrest of five illegal aliens convicted of severe offenses such as manslaughter, child sexual assault, and carjacking.
ICE arrested individuals from Honduras, Mexico, Guatemala, and Vietnam with past convictions for violent acts, according to the Department of Homeland Security. DHS Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said in a statement that ICE detained criminal illegal aliens convicted of homicide, sexual assault on a child, and carjacking. “These types of depraved criminals should never have been in the U.S. in the first place.”
Bis called ICE officers “patriots” who risk their lives to remove dangerous criminals from their neighborhoods. ” Next time you see an ICE officer, thank them for their service to our country,” she said.
According to DHS, among those apprehended was Angel Rodriguez-Padilla, a criminal illegal immigrant from Honduras who had been convicted of manslaughter in Dallas County, Texas.
