More than 200 child sex offenders have been arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the Houston area in the last six months.

According to a press release, the 214 individuals detained for immigration violations by ICE “have been charged or found guilty of sexual offenses involving minors.”

The number tops the 211 arrested “during the entire 2024 fiscal year.”

ICE attributes the increase in these arrests to “a comprehensive government strategy introduced by the current administration, which led to the creation of multiagency targeting units in each jurisdiction.”

“By uniting the resources and skills of the entire federal law enforcement network to tackle the significant rise in illegal immigration observed over the past four years, we have achieved record arrests and deportations of violent criminal aliens, international gang members, and child sex offenders,” stated Paul McBride, the acting Field Office Director for ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in Houston.

“While we still have a long way to go to truly get this crisis under control, the strides we have made in just six months to make our local communities safer are substantial, and our officers continue to work tirelessly every day to get the worst of the worst criminal aliens out of Southeast Texas to return our communities to places we can all enjoy,” McBride said.
