Federal authorities have arrested a slew of dangerous illegal aliens across the sanctuary city of Chicago this week.
On Monday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) launched Operation Midway Blitz, surging federal assets into the Windy City to track down the “worst of the worst” criminals aliens, many of whom were released back to the streets despite committing heinous crimes.
While the exact number of apprehensions has not yet been made public, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has published information about some of the most egregious offenders hunted down during the first days of the operation, including:
- Carlos Roman-Berrera. Mexico. Arrested for aggravated sexual assault of a child family member and convicted of DUI.
- Bernardino Perez-Arrevillaga. Mexico. Convicted of aggravated sexual assault victim 13-17 and sex offender registration violation.
- Varinderpal Singh. India. Convicted of strongarm rape.
- Juan Manuel Gaspar-Nochebuena. Mexico. Convicted of criminal sexual abuse of a child.
Since January, DHS has lodged more than 2,000 detainer requests against foreign suspects arrested in Chicago and local authorities have honored just eight, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin revealed this week.
“In just the last few days in Chicago, ICE has arrested pedophiles, rapists, abusers, armed robbers, and other violent thugs. These are the criminal illegal aliens Governor Pritzker, Mayor Johnson, and their fellow sanctuary politicians protect over the law-abiding American citizens,” McLaughlin stated.
“These criminal illegal aliens flocked to Illinois because sanctuary policies allow them to roam free and terrorize innocent Americans without consequence. President Trump and Secretary Noem have a clear message: no city is a safe haven for criminal illegal aliens. If you come to our country illegally and break our laws, we will hunt you down, arrest you, deport you, and you will never return.”
