Three illegal aliens were arrested when they tried to use a dating app, Jaumo, to meet underage girls to have sex. ICE has put more emphasis on arresting these illegal immigrants committing these types of crimes, doubling the arrest rate of illegals committing sex crimes against minors.
.
The 214 illegal immigrants arrested for immigration offenses by ICE “have been charged or convicted of a sex offense involving a minor,” according to a media release.
.
The number tops the 211 arrested “during the entire 2024 fiscal year.”
.
ICE says the rise in arrests “is a direct result of a whole-of-government approach implemented under the current administration that led to the establishment of multiagency targeting teams in each area of responsibility.”
.
“Bringing together the resources and expertise of the entire federal law enforcement community to confront the overwhelming surge of illegal immigration that we saw over the past four years has resulted in the arrest and removal of historic numbers of violent criminal aliens, transnational gang members and child sex offenders,” ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting Field Office Director Paul McBride said in a statement. . . .
