ICE removes Costa Rican citizen wanted for rape against a minor

NEWARK, N.J. – A citizen of Costa Rica was removed from the United States Nov. 1, by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). Upon the man’s arrival in Costa Rica, he was turned over to local authorities by ICE ERO officers.

Jose Alberto Orozco-Ramirez, 48, was the subject of an Interpol warrant for rape against a minor. He entered ICE custody May 26. Orozco-Ramirez was originally admitted to the United States as a nonimmigrant B-2 visitor June 3, 2003, but exceeded his stay.

“This removal further illustrates ICE ERO’s steadfast commitment to addressing threats to national security, border security, and our public safety,” said ERO Newark Field Office Director John Tsoukaris. “ICE works closely with domestic and international law enforcement partners to ensure individuals such as Mr. Orozco-Ramirez are removed from the U.S.”

Since Oct. 1, 2009, ERO has removed foreign fugitives from the United States who were sought in their native countries for serious crimes, including kidnapping, rape and murder. ERO works with the ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Office of International Operations, foreign consular offices in the United States, and Interpol to identify foreign fugitives illegally present in the United States.

Interpol, the world's largest international police organization with 188 member countries, facilitates international police cooperation. Being the subject of an Interpol warrant is not a presumption of guilt.

Members of the public who have information about foreign fugitives are urged to contact ICE by calling the toll-free ICE tip line at 1 (866) 347-2423 or internationally at 001-1802-872-6199. They can also file a tip online by completing ICE’s online tip form.

First thing President Trump should do is get busses to all our jails and Prison's...load up the illegal criminals from Mexico and bus them right to the border and hand them over to Mexican authorities. Relieve our jails and prison's of overcrowding and taxpayers costs. They are the easiest and closest to deport.

Then start loading up the Military C130s and ship the ones out that go overseas! Load the plane up full...not ONE at a time.

"Operation Return to Sender"!!

A Costa Rican man who raped his own daughter and got her pregnant back in 2002 was just extradited back to his home country – but only after living in the United States for the past 14 years.

ICE officials on Wednesday said 48-year-old Jose Alberto Orozco-Ramirez was handed over to Costa Rican officials earlier this week after being picked up by Immigration Officials back in May. Ramirez, who was apparently the subject of an Interpol warrant for rape against a minor, had been living in the United States since first being admitted as an HB2 non-immigrant worker in 2003. Like millions of other temporary workers allowed into the United States on work visas, Ramirez overstayed his visa and never went home.

But what ICE officials didn’t divulge in their report is when exactly Ramirez committed this heinous crime, or what exactly it involved.

An article in Teletica, written entirely in Spanish, details the crime Ramirez had been accused of back in his home country. In 2002, the year before he was legally admitted into the U.S., Ramirez reportedly raped his own underage daughter and got her pregnant, the report states. According to the article, Ramirez fled the country and came to the U.S. after a rape complaint was filed against him.

To recap, the same government that allowed at least 1.5 million immigrants (both legal and illegal) into the United States each year on the promise that they’re being thoroughly vetted allowed a child rapist to come into this country on a legal work visa, permitted him to overstay his legal welcome and only removed him 14 years later thanks to an Interpol warrant.

About 13.5 percent of the U.S. population is comprised of immigrants, up from only about 5 percent back in 1970, according to a recent analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies. The dramatic increase has sparked plenty of warranted debate over America’s history of providing safe haven for the destitute versus its need to protect itself against the economic impact of importing millions of unskilled laborers.

But setting aside the difficulty of balancing compassion with wisdom, along with our chronic and unaddressed visa overstay problem, herein lies a greater risk: criminal records of immigrants entering from foreign nations aren’t readily available to United States law enforcement. A child rapist can enter the United States on a work visa because no one’s checking to see if he’s wanted in Costa Rica.

Ramirez’s story is just one in a series of snapshots offered by government officials this week into our porous immigration system that admits both illegal aliens along with potentially dangerous legal ones.

A 44-year-old Mexican national was sentenced to three years in federal prison Thursday for fraudulently using an America citizen’s I.D. for an astounding 17 years before finally getting caught.

Two days before, ICE announced a 41-year-old Somalian cab driver in Orange County was shipped back to Mogadishu after it turned out he was funneling money to the terrorist organization al-Shabaab. Ahmed Nasir Tahlil Mohamud had been a lawful permanent resident in the U.S. since 2004.

Also on Monday, 22-year-old Miguel Zelaya, an illegal alien from Honduras, was sentenced to life in prison along with Guatemalan illegal Luis Ordonez-Vega for murder and racketeering. The men represented just two of more than 30 gangbangers associated with MS-13 who were arrested in connection with the case out of Charlotte, N.C. While ICE didn’t specify how many of those were in the country illegally, the Salvadorian-based MS-13 gang is known for stocking its U.S. ranks with undocumented aliens in its cliques across the country.
