WORST OF THE WORST: ICE Arrests Murderers, Pedophiles, and Violent Assailants

Our message to illegal aliens is clear: LEAVE NOW. If you don't, we will find you and deport you

WASHINGTON -- Yesterday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested more worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens, convicted for heinous crimes including murder, lewd or lascivious acts with a child, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon causing bodily injury.

"The brave men and women of ICE law enforcement work 24/7 to remove the worst of the worst from our communities," said Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. "Just yesterday, ICE arrested murderers, pedophiles, violent assailants, and other public safety threats. Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens who have either been convicted or charged with a crime in the United States."
