WASHINGTON -- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced the arrest of more worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens, including those convicted for despicable crimes such as child molestation, rape, and assault.

"Just yesterday, ICE arrested child molesters, rapists, domestic assailants and other worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens," said Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.

Under President Trump's leadership, ICE is detaining and removing illegal aliens every single day."
