Convicted Hijacker Among 1,361 Violent Criminals in ICE Houston Sweep

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced details surrounding the arrest of 1,361 illegal aliens in the Houston, Texas, area in June.

Among those arrested, whom liberals apparently do not want apprehended and off the streets,  were 32 child predators, 9 murderers, 16 gang or cartel members, and Adermis Wilson-Gonzalez, who was convicted in 2003 of hijacking an airplane traveling from Cuba to Key West, Florida.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting Field Office Director Gabriel Martinez shared, “Despite attempts by some to undermine our mission by spreading false and malicious rumors, the brave men and women of ICE continue to work tirelessly around the clock targeting dangerous criminal aliens to restore integrity to our nation’s immigration system and bolster public safety in our communities.”

“The number of dangerous criminal aliens that they removed from local communities across Southeast Texas last month is just another example of their selfless and unyielding efforts to return our local communities to places where we can all raise our families without having to worry about child predators, gang members, or other violent criminal aliens preying on our loved ones.”

ICE reports that included among the criminal aliens arrested were:

• Adermis Wilson-Gonzalez, a 56-year-old criminal alien from Cuba, arrested by ICE June 29 who was convicted in 2003 of hijacking an airplane traveling from Cuba to Key West, Florida.
