Maine LEO Arrested By ICE Was A Visa Overstay

By William Teach July 31, 2025 – 10:30 am

Democrats freaked out over this, saying ICE was going after good, upstanding legal aliens who had permission to work in the U.S.

(AP) The chief of police in a Maine resort town has called for an investigation into the arrest by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement of one of its officers, who the chief said was federally approved to work in the country in May. (snip)
Chard said the town submitted information via the Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify Program. E-Verify is an online system launched in the late 1990s that allows employers to check if potential employees can work legally in the U.S. Some large private employers use it, but most do not.

I guess that’s possible. Perhaps the Biden admin entered him into the system as employable. But, the reality has come out

ICE Arrests Visa Overstay Illegal Alien Employed as Police Officer in Maine
An illegal alien employed as a reserve police officer in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after he overstayed a visa.
Jon Luke Evans, an illegal alien from Jamaica, was arrested by ICE agents on July 25 in Biddeford, Maine, after initially arriving on a visa in the United States on Sept. 24, 2023.
According to ICE officials, Evans was supposed to depart the United States on Oct. 1, 2023, under the terms of his visa, but did not. As a result of overstaying his visa, ICE classifies him as an illegal alien.
Evans was arrested by ICE agents after he attempted to purchase a firearm for his job as a police officer in Old Orchard Beach. The attempted purchase of the firearm triggered a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) alert, which was then sent to ICE.
“Jon Luke Evans not only broke U.S. immigration law, but he also illegally attempted to purchase a firearm,” ICE’s Patricia Hyde said in a statement. “Shockingly, Evans was employed as a local law enforcement officer.”

He was hired in May, and given a department issued firearm. Seasonal cops are not allowed to take them home or carry personal firearm on duty. This could jeopardize any arrest he made, though, being a fancy beach town, could any of the busts be more than misdemeanors? Why did he need a personal firearm? For one thing, federal law precludes non-citizens from purchasing one.

They already live on the edge. Trump’s immigration crackdowns now threaten their housing
…
President Donald Trump’s intensifying immigration crackdown leaves those renters more vulnerable to eviction and exploitation, which could plunge more immigrants into homelessness or overcrowding, or even lead some to “voluntarily” leave the country, housing rights attorneys and scholars say.
The fear of retaliation from landlords has created what advocates describe as a chilling effect on immigrant renters, which “substantially undercuts” California’s strong tenant protection laws, said David Hall, co-directing tenants’ rights attorney with Centro Legal de La Raza, a nonprofit legal aid group in Oakland.

It’s a big tearjerker of an article, but, if they are worried, they can always leave the U.S. Simple. And you know what happens if 2.6 million illegals, along with all the fake asylum seekers, leave California? Millions of residences open up on the market, which could reduce rent. That would be a good thing, right?

ICE Arrests Visa Overstay Illegal Alien Employed as Police Officer in Maine

An illegal alien employed as a reserve police officer in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after he overstayed a visa.

Jon Luke Evans, an illegal alien from Jamaica, was arrested by ICE agents on July 25 in Biddeford, Maine, after initially arriving on a visa in the United States on Sept. 24, 2023.
According to ICE officials, Evans was supposed to depart the United States on Oct. 1, 2023, under the terms of his visa, but did not. As a result of overstaying his visa, ICE classifies him as an illegal alien.
Evans was arrested by ICE agents after he attempted to purchase a firearm for his job as a police officer in Old Orchard Beach. The attempted purchase of the firearm triggered a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) alert, which was then sent to ICE.
“Jon Luke Evans not only broke U.S. immigration law, but he also illegally attempted to purchase a firearm,” ICE’s Patricia Hyde said in a statement. “Shockingly, Evans was employed as a local law enforcement officer.”
Officials with the Old Orchard Beach Police Department claim Evans was authorized to work in the United States, and that they did not break any federal laws in hiring him. ICE officials say otherwise.

“The fact that a police department would hire an illegal alien and unlawfully issue him a firearm while on duty would be comical if it weren’t so tragic. We have a police department that was knowingly breaking the very law they are charged with enforcing,” Hyde said, “in order to employ an illegal alien. ICE Boston will continue to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing criminal alien threats from our New England communities.”

Over ten years ago, ALIPAC.us warned America that the elites supporting the illegal immigration invasion of America planned to put illegal alien invaders in positions of authority over US citizens as teachers, tax collectors, family services, prison guards, and police with badges, guns, and titles.

So often, our audience shared their disbelief in these predictions because we were the first to share these truths. Of course, the Soros groups mocked us and told Americans not to believe our made-up "conspiracies" and the media remained silent instead of sharing our accurate warnings.
