Cesar Polanco, an illegal from the Dominican Republic who was picked up in an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid in Boston last week, is the exact kind of person we don’t want living in the United States, and he’s the perfect example of why President Donald Trump and his border czar, Tom Homan, are doing what they’re doing.

While it’s unknown how long Polanco has been illegally making the U.S. his home, what is known is that he made his way to the leftist utopia known as Massachusetts, where he eventually married Judith Guevara and began a family with her. After a night of boozing and dabbling in some nose candy, Polanco murdered Judith, who was one month pregnant at the time, savagely beating her so badly around the head and face that she had no chance of survival. Oh, and he did this in front of her 5-year-old son.

Polanco pleaded guilty to second-degree murder back in 2007 and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. This being Massachusetts we’re talking about, Polanco was granted parole back in December after the commonwealth’s Parole Board found his “adjustment has been positive” and that he had “expressed remorse for his actions and reminded the Board that he called the police himself” after smashing in his wife’s face.

A Harvard University Law student working for the school’s Prison Legal Assistance Project (PLAP), whose stated mission includes “empowering” people incarcerated in Massachusetts, helped to secure Polanco’s parole this time around after the murderer was first denied in 2021.

Upon being granted parole, the Parole Board decided Polanco would be released on a “home plan”:

That plan states, in part, that “Mr. Polanco has a significant support system in the United States and Dominican Republic. The Board considered the support of Mr. Polanco’s sister, daughter, and friend,” the Parole Board added before they “approved” his release where he had to abstain from drugs and alcohol.

As it turned out, that “home plan” would instead involve a one-way ticket back home to the Dominican Republic, courtesy of Air Trump.

Due to his illegal immigrant status, ICE was notified of Polanco’s pending release and was there to greet him as he was discharged last Friday from the Massachusetts Correctional Institution at Norfolk. His arrest was part of a large-scale roundup of criminal illegals that saw ICE officers go into Boston-area sanctuary neighborhoods and nab “the worst of the worst.” That raid also saw a Haitian man being taken into custody while screaming, “F**k Trump, Biden forever!”

Border czar Homan had promised that criminals would be the first to go in the Trump administration’s plan to start mass deportations but was met with resistance from Massachusetts governor Maura Healey, Democrat, who stated she’d use “every tool in the toolbox” to “protect” those in her state. Well, it looks like, faced with the ferocity of the administration’s repatriation efforts, Healey is changing her tune:

“Whether you’re documented or undocumented, you commit crimes, you’re subject to investigation and prosecution and accountability, and it looks like that is what happened,” Healey said, according to Fox local outlet, .

Despite the momentum and success of the efforts underway, the district attorney involved in Cesar Polanco’s case offered a word of warning when arguing against his parole: “The inmate also has a history of entering the United States and using a variety of aliases, presumably to avoid detection.” 

Getting rid of the criminals is the easy part, keeping them out will be the next challenge.
