DHS Highlights Worst Tren de Aragua Gang Members Arrested in Georgia

Release Date: October 16, 2026

WASHINGTON - The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement highlighting the worst arrests of illegal alien Tren de Aragua gang members in the state of Georgia in recent months.

"The four long years of Biden's open borders allowed some of the worst gang members to enter our country and terrorize our communities. The Trump Administration has been working tirelessly to right these wrongs and get these public safety threats off our streets," said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. "In recent months, in the great state of Georgia, ICE has arrested Tren de Aragua gang members whose criminal histories include armed robbery, aggravated assault, and drug possession. DHS will always put the safety of the American people first, and we will not stop until we have arrested and deported as many illegal aliens as possible. Mass deportations save lives."
