BOSTON, MA - An illegal alien facing criminal charges related to the sexual exploitation of children has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement after a Massachusetts court cleared him release from jail- in defiance of a request from ICE to transfer him to federal custody.
Hugo Israel Ruiz, 55, was apprehended by ICE earlier this month after bailing out of the Nashua Street Jail in Boston, according to Fox News. Ruiz is facing felony charges of indecent assault and battery on a child under the age of 14.
After Ruiz's initial arrest in August, the Chelsea District Court approved his bail- defying the request from ICE to transfer him into immigration custody.
Subsequently, Ruiz was released into the community, pending the adjudication of his child sex crimes charges. The exact circumstances of Ruiz's release aren't clear- it's uncertain if the jail willfully ignored ICE's request to detain the accused pedophile, or if the county failed to account for the federal interest in Ruiz's continued detention.
It's also unclear for how long Ruiz was allowed to walk the streets of the community before his immigration arrest.
With Ruiz's federal arrest, he stands to face deportation after his sex crimes charges are resolved.
ERO Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde defended her agency's purview to detain illegal aliens after the arrest.
"ERO Boston will take every opportunity to identify, locate and take into custody criminal noncitizens facing felony charges and keep them in custody until their criminal and immigration proceedings are resolved. Not only is this our mission, it is also the lawful thing to do."
The Suffolk County Sheriff's Department opted to end a partnership arrangement with ICE in 2019, instead pledging to divert the resources involved in the partnership to women detained in the Suffolk County House of Correction. The head of ICE ERO (Enforcement and Removal Operations) expressed her dissatisfaction with the decision, ending a law enforcement partnership that had served the community since 2003.
Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey has pledged to undermine the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump as it relates to deporting illegal aliens, pledging to use "every tool in the toolbox" to shield illegal aliens from deportation.
Illegal immigration significantly raises housing costs on local communities flooded with an influx of largely low-wage workers, and Massachusetts hosts one of the most onerous cost burdens for housing in the United States.

Monsters who violate children should be executed.
