Trump’s ICE Racks Up Hundreds of Arrests

In a swift and aggressive move to enforce immigration laws, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under the Trump administration has carried out over 460 arrests of illegal immigrants within just the first 33 hours of the new administration. These arrests include individuals with severe criminal histories, such as sexual assault, domestic violence, and drug-related offenses.

According to information obtained by Fox News, from midnight on January 21 to 9 a.m. on January 22, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) apprehended individuals involved in crimes such as robbery, burglary, aggravated assault, resisting arrest, and more.

The operation spanned across several states, including Illinois, Utah, California, Minnesota, New York, Florida, and Maryland, targeting illegal immigrants from a range of countries such as Mexico, Honduras, Brazil, Colombia, and Venezuela.

Major Arrests Highlighted in the Operation

Among the key arrests reported:

  • Mexican national, Jesus Perez, arrested in Salt Lake City for aggravated sexual abuse of a child.
  • Jamaican national, Kamaro Denver Haye, arrested in New York City for promoting a sexual performance by a child.
  • Colombian national, Andres Orjuela Parra, apprehended in San Francisco for sexual penetration with a foreign object on an unaware victim.
  • Six illegal immigrants in Miami from Guatemala, with criminal backgrounds including child abuse, fraud, battery, and trespassing.

In addition to the arrests, ICE issued more than 420 detainers, requesting that local authorities notify ICE before releasing individuals who have been detained for crimes including homicide, sexual assault, and kidnapping.

Trump Administration’s Push for Mass Deportations

The administration has taken immediate action to expand expedited deportation powers, with Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials emphasizing their commitment to removing public safety threats. Former acting ICE Director, Tom Homan, stated, “Right out of the gate it’s public safety threats that we are looking for.”

The current enforcement efforts come in the wake of recent executive orders signed by President Trump, which have rescinded Biden-era policies that previously limited ICE operations.

Concerns Over Sanctuary Cities

One of the challenges facing ICE operations is the presence of sanctuary cities, which often refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Officials have expressed frustration, stating that in such cities, ICE must actively seek individuals in communities rather than detaining them directly from jails.

Reports from Fox News indicate that these recent efforts are just the beginning, with further large-scale deportation operations expected in the coming weeks.
