The streets of Houston, Texas, are a little safer today, thanks to Houston’s Immigration & Customs Enforcement troops. Why? Thanks to ICE Houston, over 600 illegal alien criminals have been taken off the streets for repatriation. 

There are some seriously bad people among them.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents based in Houston continue to arrest and remove violent criminals illegally in the U.S. In several targeted operations, agents arrested more than 600 criminal foreign nationals, including scores who were previously deported multiple times, confirmed gang members, sex offenders and fugitives.

ICE agents recently removed Orbelin Benitez-Carbajal, a criminal Mexican national previously deported and convicted of manslaughter. He was returned to Mexico last week after previously being deported in 2014 and illegally reentering the country last January. His criminal record includes manslaughter and assault in Travis County, driving while intoxicated in Austin and illegal entry in west Texas in January 2024.

An-eight time removed Mexico national, Baltazar Pantoja Calderon, was also removed from the U.S. this month. He was convicted on charges of kidnapping, driving while intoxicated, illegal entry and resisting arrest. Each time he illegally entered the U.S., he was caught and returned to Mexico, including this month.

Another Mexican national, Leticia Caballero Guadarrama, was removed to Mexico this month after having been removed six times going back to 2002. Her criminal record includes 14 convictions, including six for DWIs, six for theft or larceny, and two for refusing to provide identification to law enforcement.

But wait! There’s more! In another operation, ICE worked with state and local authorities to bring in these bad guys:

140 charged or convicted of an aggravated felony or other violent crimes like homicide, aggravated assault, or domestic violence;

34 charged or convicted of sex offenses, including aggravated sexual assault of a minor, possession of child pornography, or rape;

38 convicted of illegal firearms offenses, including unlawful carrying of a firearm, alien in possession of a firearm and aggravated assault with a firearm;

52 charged or convicted of illicit narcotics offenses, including drug trafficking, or possession of a controlled substance;

51 charged or convicted of property crimes like burglary or theft;

93 charged or convicted of driving while intoxicated.

Those are a lot of people that we don’t want in our country.
