WASHINGTON - The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) arrested a criminal illegal alien and convicted drug trafficker with 126 kilograms of methamphetamine.

On August 13, HSI Atlanta carried out a controlled delivery to a residence where Pedro Guadarrama-Loza, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico, was observed retrieving the packages. When HSI Atlanta arrested Guadarrama-Loza, they also seized 126 kilograms of methamphetamine.

Guadarrama-Loza's criminal history includes a prior conviction for felony drug trafficking and a prior arrest for driving without a valid driver's license in Georgia.

"This criminal illegal alien from Mexico was arrested with 126 kilograms of methamphetamine, has prior convictions for drug trafficking, and has already been deported from our country TWICE," said a DHS Spokesperson. "Thanks to the hard work of the brave men and women of HSI, this drug trafficker is off our streets and will soon be removed from our country. He will no longer be able to peddle his poison on American streets and endanger American lives."

Guadarrama-Loza claims to have illegally entered the United States through Texas, near Austin, in 2004. A Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge issued Guadarrama-Loza a final order of removal on May 8, 2008, and he was deported on May 15, 2008. He then claimed to have illegally re-entered the United States - a felony - at an unknown date through Texas, near Eagle Pass. He was deported for a second time by the Trump Administration on June 22, 2017. He then illegally entered the United States for a THIRD time at an unknown date and location.
