In recent incidents in Texas, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have successfully apprehended two immigrants with criminal backgrounds.
David Lopez Javier, a 45-year-old individual from Honduras, was apprehended in Conroe on Jan. 29, as stated in a press release. Having been deported twice before, Javier has unlawfully entered the United States on at least three occasions. He was previously expelled from the country in 2013 and 2016.
Javir has committed multiple crimes during his time in the United States, including engaging in lewd and lascivious battery against a child, trafficking and possessing cocaine, illegally reentering the country, and committing larceny.
Efrain Gomez Cac, a 30-year-old Guatemalan, was taken into custody on January 29th in Conroe. Cac had previously been deported from the United States in 2018. He has a history of criminal convictions, including aggravated assault with a deadly weapon causing bodily harm and driving while intoxicated.
“Criminal aliens who repeatedly violate our nation’s immigration laws only to commit sex offenses against innocent minors, traffic deadly narcotics in our local communities or commit violent offenses against law-abiding residents are quickly finding out that the law enforcement community is united and more determined than ever in our resolve to bolster public safety, national security and border security here in Southeast Texas,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston Field Office Director Bret Bradford.
