Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

January 30, 2020

Lars:

It has been an interesting last week in the month of January when it comes to criminal aliens (illegal aliens) here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week we take a look at for your Pacific Northwest radio listeners an illegal alien previously removed from United States who was recently involved in a Hit and Run accident that allegedly caused the death of a woman in Multnomah County, Oregon.

But first some background information; last year I requested from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs immigration enforcement stories.

Monday, January 27, 2020 ICE Public Affairs Officer (PAO) Tanya J. Roman sent via e-mail the following statement on Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, aka Manuel Garcia-Ledesma, age 42, a crime story with illegal immigration enforcement implications:

“Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, aka Manuel Garcia-Ledesma, is a citizen of Mexico and is in the United States illegally. On June 5, 2019, Mendoza-Chavez was arrested by the Portland Police Bureau in Portland, Oregon for felony criminally negligent homicide and failure to perform duties of a driver to injured persons and was booked into the Multnomah County Jail. On June 7, U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers lodged an immigration detainer on Mendoza-Chavez with the Multnomah County Jail. On that same day, Mendoza-Chavez posted bail and Multnomah County Jail released him back into the community. No notification was given to ICE of Mendoza-Chavez’s release.

On July 12, 2019, Officers with ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), located and arrested Mendoza-Chavez and he was subsequently transferred to the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington. On Jan. 6, 2020, Mendoza-Chavez was ordered removed from the United States to Mexico by a federal immigration judge with the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) which is under the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Mendoza-Chavez’s is an illegally present Mexican national who was previously arrested in Phoenix, Arizona on April 19, 1999, by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). At the time of this encounter, Mendoza-Chavez was granted a voluntary return and was allowed to voluntarily return to his native Mexico. Mendoza-Chavez later illegally entered the U.S. from Mexico at an unknown time and location. He is currently pending further immigration proceedings.

Due to sanctuary policies that shield criminal aliens and endanger public safety, local law enforcement requesting to have an ICE detainee returned to local custody to face criminal charges, must provide ICE with an arrest warrant in addition to a judicial transport warrant, from the requesting court, requiring the ICE detainee be returned exclusively to ICE custody at the conclusion of the criminal court proceedings. The arrest warrant and judicial transport order ensures all ICE detainees will not be released back into the community where they can reoffend and/or released by non-cooperative jurisdictions that do not honor ICE detainers. As of Jan. 27, 2020, Multnomah County has not provided any such documents to ICE.” – Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

“On Background:

▪ Federal prisoners in ICE custody may lawfully be transferred to the custody of a state or local government pursuant to a state writ of habeas. Writ’s, also referred to as transport warrants, are an agreement that if ICE transfers custody of a criminal alien to a local jurisdiction for prosecution, that the alien will be returned to ICE prior to the individuals release.

▪ ICE officers carry out targeted enforcement actions every day in locations around the country as part of the agency’s ongoing efforts to protect the nation, uphold public safety, and protect the integrity of our immigration laws and border controls.

▪ When law enforcement agencies don’t honor ICE detainers, these individuals, who often have significant criminal histories, are released onto the street, presenting an avoidable public safety threat. Further, when ICE officers have to go out into the community to proactively locate these criminal aliens, it creates added risks to our personnel and to public safety. Additionally, once these criminals are out on the street, confirming their whereabouts is often time consuming and resource intensive. Many of our arrest targets are seasoned criminals who are savvy about eluding law enforcement.

▪ Any jurisdiction thinking that refusing to cooperate with ICE will result in a decrease in immigration enforcement is mistaken. Jurisdictions that choose to not cooperate with ICE are likely to see an increase in ICE field enforcement activity, as ICE has no choice but to conduct more at-large arrest operations. A consequence of ICE conducting more street arrests is the agency is likely to encounter additional unlawfully present foreign nationals that would otherwise not have been encountered had ICE been afforded the opportunity to take custody of a criminal target within the confines of a local jail.

▪ Despite the significant obstacles local sanctuary policies have created for ICE, we remain committed to our public safety mission and we will continue to fulfill ICE’s lawful mandate and sworn duty to identify, locate and arrest dangerous criminal aliens and other immigration violators. ICE seeks straightforward cooperation with all local law enforcement and elected officials.” – ICE Public Affairs.

Some recent criminal back ground history on Jaime Mendoza-Chavez (ID: 817510; DOB: unknown):

At the time of Jaime Mendoza-Chavez’s initial arrest and incarceration on June 5, 2019 at the Multnomah County Jail in Portland, Oregon Mendoza-Chavez was charged with one count of Negligent Homicide (A Class B Felony) and Failure to Perform the Duties of a Driver Injury (A Class C Felony). His combined bail on the two felonies was $25,000.00.

A June 6, 2019 Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office (MCDAO) news release titled “Charges filed against 42-year-old man in connection with April 2019 vehicular homicide investigation” revealed that on April 10, 2019 Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, the resulting consequences of Hit and Run accident, was charged in the killing 82 year-old Sandra Bosch.

The MCDAO June 6th news release also revealed Jaime Mendoza-Chavez admitted to consumption of alcohol prior to the accident that killed Sandra Bosch.

Analysis of the preceding ICE Pubic Affairs’ statement on Jaime Mendoza-Chavez:

April 19, 1999 the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) arrested Mexican national Jaime Mendoza-Chavez in Phoenix, Arizona for being illegally present in the United States.

After the INS arrested illegal alien Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, he was granted a voluntary return to Mexico.

ICE doesn’t know the time and location after Jaime Mendoza-Chavez was granted a voluntary return to Mexico he illegally reentered the U.S. from Mexico.

On June 7, 2019 ICE Officers’ lodged an immigration detainer on Jaime Mendoza-Chavez with the Multnomah County Jail.

June 7th, the same day, Jaime Mendoza-Chavez posted bail and Multnomah County Jail Deputies’ released Mendoza-Chavez back into the community, ignoring the immigration detainer, failing to contact ICE Officers on him being released from the jail.

On July 12, 2019 ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) located and arrested Jaime Mendoza-Chavez and he was then transferred to the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington.

January 6, 2020, a federal immigration judge with the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), which is under the Department of Justice (DOJ), ordered Jaime Mendoza-Chavez’s removal from the United States to Mexico.

According to the ICE Pubic Affairs’ statement on Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, he faces current further pending immigration proceedings.

The ICE Pubic Affairs’ statement offers a form of legal olive branch to Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, indirectly to the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office, in explaining there is set legal process ICE has in dealing with a county with sanctuary policies if legal authorities want to have an ICE detainee returned to local custody to face criminal charges.

Law enforcement “must provide ICE with an arrest warrant in addition to a judicial transport warrant, from the requesting court, requiring the ICE detainee be returned exclusively to ICE custody at the conclusion of the criminal court proceedings.”

As of Monday, January 27, 2020 Multnomah County legal authorities have not provided ICE with an arrest warrant and judicial transport order so Jaime Mendoza-Chavez, the alleged killer of Sandra Bosch, can be returned to Oregon to have the criminal charges against him adjudicated before he is deported Mexico.

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

January 23, 2020

Lars:

It has been an interesting third full week in the month of January when it comes to criminal aliens (illegal aliens) here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week we take a look at for your Pacific Northwest radio listeners a criminal illegal alien felon child molester who was prosecuted for illegal entry into the United States in the state of Washington.

According to a U.S. Attorney’s Office Eastern District of Washington (USAOEDW) Friday, December 13, 2019 news release titled “Foreign National Sentenced to Over 13 Months in Federal Prison for Illegally Re-Entering the United States Following Previous Deportations,” Mexican national William Moreno-Moreno, age 24, plead guilty on September 12, 2019, to being an alien illegally in the United States after previously being deported.

Some back ground information from the USAOEDW news release:

William Moreno-Moreno had three prior removals from the United States.

After illegally entering the U.S. a fourth time, William Moreno-Moreno was convicted in Grant County, Washington of third degree rape of a child and possession of methamphetamine.

At the completion of his Washington Department of Corrections (DOC) prison sentence, William Moreno-Moreno was taken into federal custody.

On January 13, 2020 William Moreno-Moreno (ID: 1528861; DOB: Dec 25, 1994) was incarcerated at the Benton County Jail in Kennewick, Washington.

Seeking additional information on the immigration status William Moreno-Moreno, I contacted via e-mail on Monday, January 13, 2020 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs Officer Tanta J. Roman with the following questions:

What federal law enforcement agency took William Moreno-Moreno into custody after he completed his DOC prison sentence?

How many times has ICE actually removed William Moreno-Moreno from the United States?

What were the dates and places William Moreno-Moreno was removed from the country?

Has William Moreno-Moreno ever previously served time in a federal prison for an immigration crime or violation?

On Friday, January 17th, ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman sent via e-mail the following response to my preceding questions on William Moreno-Moreno:

“Sexual predator, William Moreno-Moreno, is a citizen of Mexico and a repeat immigration violator who is in the United States illegally.

In 2014, Moreno-Moreno was removed from the United States by the U.S. Border Patrol on three separate occasions at various ports in California.

On Jan. 28, 2019, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) encountered Moreno-Moreno at the Washington Department of Corrections (DOC) while he was serving a sentence for a July 20, 2018, arrest and subsequent conviction in the Grant County Superior Court, for felony rape of a child. ICE lodged an immigration detainer with the Washington DOC the same day.

On May 13, 2019, he was turned over to ICE and spent nine days in immigration custody before being transferred to the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) for federal prosecution for felony illegal re-entry after deportation.

On Dec. 12, 2019, Moreno-Moreno was convicted of illegal re-entry after deportation and sentenced to 13 months plus one day in prison. ICE lodged a detainer with the USMS and Moreno-Moreno is expected to be turned over to ICE following the completion of his federal sentence.” – Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office Eastern District of Washington news release disclosing the prosecution and conviction of Mexican national criminal illegal alien felony child molester William Moreno-Moreno for illegal entry into the United States is a rare example of any U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho openly holding an individual accountable for a violation of U.S. immigration law.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Public Affairs Officer Tanta J. Roman’s statement on Mexican national illegal alien sexual predator William Moreno-Moreno is a full discloser story on how ICE processes criminal aliens.

Lars, third full week in the month of January and another criminal alien report for Lars Larson Show KXL FM 101.1 Pacific Northwest radio listeners.

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

Lars Larson Show: Criminal Alien of the Week Report

January 16, 2020

Lars:

It has been an interesting second full week in the month of January when it comes to criminal aliens (illegal aliens) here in the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

This week we take a look at for your Pacific Northwest radio listeners a criminal illegal alien who has a history of Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants (DUII) in Tehama County, California and Clatsop County, Oregon.

But first some background information; earlier this year I requested from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs immigration enforcement stories.

Thursday, October 31, 2019 ICE Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman sent via e-mail the following statement on Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez (ID: unknown; DOB: unknown), age estimation 50 years, a crime story with illegal immigration enforcement implications:

“Repeat immigration violator Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez is a citizen of Mexico and in the United States illegally.

Arciga-Bermudez has been apprehended by the Border Patrol attempting to enter the U.S. without inspection on four occasions between 2006 and 2009. Each time he was allowed to voluntarily return to Mexico rather than be detained for immigration removal proceedings.

On Feb. 3, 1991, Arciga-Bermudez was arrested by the Red Bluff Police Department charges of both felony DUI and causing bodily injury. He was subsequently convicted of DUI on Feb. 20, 1991.

On April 8, 2008, Arciga-Bermudez was arrested by Seaside Police Department for driving under the influence.

On Aug. 11, 2018, Arciga-Bermudez was again arrested by the Seaside Police Department for DUI and reckless endangering. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) encountered Arciga-Bermudez during criminal proceedings associated with that arrest. On Sept. 10, 2019, Arciga-Bermudez was convicted on all counts.

On Sept. 23, 2019, ICE detained Arciga-Bermudez without incident. He is currently being housed at the Northwest ICE Processing Center, pending immigration proceedings.”– Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

Analysis of the preceding ICE information on Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez:

Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez has been previously apprehended and sent back to his country of origin Mexico four times between 2006 and 2009:

Over an approximate 28-year period Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez has been convicted of DUII three times.

In ICE custody, with the three previous DUII convictions, Gilberto Arciga-Bermudez is very likely, if he hasn’t been already, going to be deported to Mexico.

Seeking additional information on the immigration status Hector Lucas-Aquino, I contacted via e-mail on Monday, January 6, 2020 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Public Affairs Officer Tanya J. Roman with the following questions:

Did ICE actually place an immigration detainer on Hector Lucas-Aquino during the time period he was incarcerated in the Benton County Jail in Corvallis, Oregon or at any other location he may have been held for prior criminal convictions?

How many times has ICE actually removed Hector Lucas-Aquino from the U.S.?

If Hector Lucas-Aquino was previously removed by ICE from the U.S., what were the dates and places Lucas-Aquino was removed from the country?

Has Hector Lucas-Aquino ever previously served time in a federal prison for an immigration crime or violation?

On Wednesday, January 8th, ICE Public Affairs Officer Roman sent via e-mail the following response to my preceding questions on Hector Lucas-Aquino:

“Convicted sex offender Hector Lucas-Aquino is a citizen of Mexico and a repeat immigration violator who illegally entered the United States on an unknown date and location. Lucas-Aquino has an extensive criminal history in the state of Oregon dating back to 1997 that includes multiple charges for sex crimes, forgery, several instances of driving under the influence of intoxicants, failure to appear and resisting arrest.

“On Jan. 29, 2019, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) encountered Lucas-Aquino at the Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) and lodged an immigration detainer with the jail. On March 19, 2019, Lucas-Aquino was turned over to ICE, and on March 26, 2019, he was removed to Mexico.

According to a CBP press release published Dec. 20, 2019, Lucas-Aquino was apprehended in California trying to illegally re-enter the U.S. He is currently being held in federal custody pending further criminal prosecution.” – Tanya J. Roman, ICE Public Affairs Officer.

Mexican national criminal illegal alien felon sex offender Hector Lucas-Aquino is another example of the thousands of previously deported aliens that U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents apprehend annually who try to illegally reenter the U.S.
