ICE arrests another illegal immigrant in Mass. charged with child sex crimes, as administration rejects Trump’s deportation order

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested another illegal immigrant charged with child sex offenses in Boston, just as the governor of Massachusetts said it would not help the Trump administration’s deportations.

ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Boston announced this month that it arrested an illegal immigrant from Colombia on Oct. 29. He was arrested by the Boston Police Department on charges of soliciting a child under the age of 16, distributing obscene matter, and disorderly conduct. exposing and showing the child naked.

ICE filed a detainer — a request that the immigrant be detained until ICE can detain him — but the detainer was not respected by local authorities and released from custody. The man, Mateo Hincapie Cardona, met with the Border Patrol in Arizona in April and was released on his own recognizance.

“This individual is charged with committing a horrific crime against a child, which shows that he is a danger to our Massachusetts community,” said ERO Boston Office Acting Director Patricia Hyde.

It’s one of several incidents that ICE’s Boston unit has had to deal with after illegal immigrants have been released from local custody in and around the city. “Sanctuary” authorities generally do not honor ICE detainers, arguing that doing so encourages illegal immigrants to come forward and cooperate with police if they are victims or witnesses of crimes. Massachusetts is not a sanctuary state as it does not have a sanctuary law on the books, but a number of its cities – including Boston – are sanctuary cities.

In September, ICE announced that it had arrested an illegal immigrant from Salvador charged with multiple counts of child sex. He was one of the “bad” illegal sex offenders caught on a trip to Nantucket.

That same month, ICE announced the arrest of an “immigrant” in Lynn, Massachusetts. He was charged with raping, assaulting and assaulting an 18-year-old, but was released on bail without informing immigration.

Mateo Hincapie Cardona, 28, is currently in custody pending removal.

In August, ICE arrested an illegal Brazilian immigrant in Wakefield, Massachusetts, charged with assault, rape, assault and battery, domestic assault and battery in Massachusetts.

Source of law enforcement confirmed to Fox News that even though he had a warrant for his arrest for domestic violence, the local bail commissioner allowed him to be released on bond.

In March, Fox News embedded with ICE officers in Boston and saw them arrest five people, including four suspected child rapists and a member of MS-13, a potentially dangerous gang that police say is allowed on the streets because of sanctuary policies. that rejected the organization’s arrest requests.

While ERO Boston Field Office Director Todd Lyons praised the work of local officials to remove potential threats to the public from the streets, he acknowledged sanctuary policies. in Boston they are “frustrating” and make it difficult for the agency to do its job.

But those sanctuary policies are likely to be the focus of the incoming Trump administration.

President-elect Trump has promised to crack down on mass deportations, and this week called acting ICE Director Tom Homan “the king of the border.”

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey said state police would “absolutely” not assist agents in their deportation efforts, and hinted at possible backlash against the administration.

“Other facts must be looked at, and in 2016, we had a different situation in the courts, and I am sure that there may be litigation. There are many other ways that people will take and they need to take action. for the sake of their districts and citizens,” said Healey. “There’s regulatory and administrative power and stuff like that. There’s also law within our district.

“So I think the important thing here is that, you know, every tool in the toolbox should be used to protect our citizens, to protect our citizens and to protect our states and to hold the line of democracy and the rule of law. basic principle.”

A source at ICE Boston was not impressed with Healey’s comments.

“Governor Healey’s sanctuary laws protect criminals and put law enforcement in danger every day,” they said. “His policies do not protect the citizens of the communities he swears by.”
