ICE arrests 91 in New Jersey operation targeting criminal aliens

NEWARK, N.J. — An Salvadoran national in the country illegally, who has an Interpol warrant for being a member of MS-13 and trafficking in firearms and narcotics, is among 91 foreign nationals taken into custody during a five-day operation conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last week in New Jersey, targeting at-large criminal aliens, illegal re-entrants and other immigration violators. The operation was supported by ICE's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) New Jersey Field Office.

Of those arrested during the operation, which was spearheaded by ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), 77 percent were convicted criminals and 70 percent of them had prior felony convictions.
"The remarkable results of our officers and law enforcement partners highlight ICE's ongoing commitment to public safety," said John Tsoukaris, Field Office Director of ERO Newark. "This operation focuses on the arrest of individuals convicted of serious crimes and are a threat to public safety. Because of the targeted efforts of these professional officers, there are 91 fewer criminals in our communities."

These individuals will go through removal proceedings before an Immigration Judge or for those under a final order of removal, arrangements will be made to remove them from the U.S.

"U.S. Customs and Border Protection is extremely proud to have assisted in this operation," said Frank Russo, Acting Director New York Field Office. "It is through collaborative efforts that law enforcement agencies can combat illegal acts and apprehend criminals who pose a threat to the Homeland."

  1. Sentence them to hard labor before they are deported to the middle east. Make them slaves at the ME and they might be discouraged about crossing our border again.

  2. ICE would have a field day in PG, Howard and Montgomery counties. Illegals have taken over the apartment complexes and are dividing up the bedrooms to fit 6 to 8 people in each bedroom and them collecting anywhere from $60.00 to $100 a week for each person sleeping in the bedroom. That is up to $3200.00 a month for each bedroom in an apartment.
    MS-13 controls the security of these large apartment complexes and tenants are too scared to say anything.
