An illegal alien on the “Top 10 Most Wanted” list in Honduras has been arrested in New York after evading a 44-year prison sentence in his home country.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said Olivin Martinez Coto was arrested on Long Island on Tuesday, where he was reportedly in hiding.

Coto had been sentenced in Honduras for aggravated femicide, which ICE said is when someone kills a woman because she is a woman. He was also convicted of attempted homicide and forcible home invasion.

“We’ve already deported him TWICE and he’s NEVER entered the country legally,” ICE wrote in a social media post. “He has no respect for our nation’s immigration laws and isn’t the least bit pleased about getting caught.”

There were only 8,039 apprehensions on a national scale by Border Patrol, which is lower than the record set in March. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the first three days of June 2024 had over 11,000 apprehensions, with the southern border alone having over 7,000 apprehensions in the first two days of that month. 

Homan said the total number of encounters in June is less than half of a single day under Biden on several of the days in the month.

“Also, none of the 6,070 were released into the U.S. ZERO. President Trump has created the most secure border in the history of the nation and the data proves it,” Homan said. “We have never seen numbers this low. Never. God bless the men and women of the US Border Patrol and God bless the men and women of ICE. The interior arrests and consequences help to drive down illegal immigration. The TRUMP EFFECT keeps America winning.”
