WORST OF THE WORST: ICE Arrests Pedophiles, Sexual Predators, and Other Dangerous Criminals

80% of Americans support our commonsense efforts to deport criminal illegal aliens from our communities

WASHINGTON -- Yesterday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), arrested more worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens across the country, including those convicted for despicable crimes such as aggravated criminal sexual abuse, aggravated sexual battery, and lewd acts upon a child.

"Every single day, the brave men and women of ICE are arresting and removing criminals from American communities. Just yesterday, ICE arrested pedophiles, sexual predators, and other dangerous illegal aliens," said Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin. "Under the Trump Administration, DHS is enforcing the law, deporting illegal aliens, and defending the homeland. It's no wonder crime rates have reached historic lows. We will always put the safety of the American people first."

Yesterday's arrests include:
