An illegal alien listed among the “Top 10 Most Wanted” in Honduras has been apprehended in New York after dodging a 44-year prison sentence in his native country.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said Olivin Martinez Coto was arrested on Long Island on Tuesday, where he was reportedly in hiding.
Coto was sentenced in Honduras for aggravated femicide, which, according to ICE, involves killing a woman because of her gender. He was also found guilty of attempted homicide and forcible home invasion.
“We’ve already deported him twice, and he has never entered the country legally,” ICE stated in a social media post. “He shows no regard for our nation’s immigration laws and is far from pleased about being captured.”

There were only 8,039 apprehensions on a national scale by Border Patrol, which is lower than the record set in March. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the first three days of June 2024 had over 11,000 apprehensions, with the southern border alone having over 7,000 apprehensions in the first two days of that month.
Homan said the total number of encounters in June is less than half of a single day under Biden on several of the days in the month.
“Also, none of the 6,070 were released into the U.S. ZERO. President Trump has created the most secure border in the history of the nation and the data proves it,” Homan said. “We have never seen numbers this low. Never. God bless the men and women of the US Border Patrol and God bless the men and women of ICE. The interior arrests and consequences help to drive down illegal immigration. The TRUMP EFFECT keeps America winning.”
