ICE Deporting Violent Sex Traffickers
Listen Directly At Real Clear Podcast
The episode explores the urgent issues surrounding child sex trafficking and violence against women related to the Biden/Harris immigration policies at the southern border. We discuss the terrible consequences of sanctuary cities, the staggering number of unaccompanied minors in peril, and the moral responsibility to protect vulnerable populations.
Okay, today we're going to talk about the deportation efforts, the terrible problem of child sex trafficking and mass rape of women coming across the southern border, why it's a good idea to close the southern border for that reason and to get violent criminals out of the country who have committed these acts against women and children. We're going to start off with a recording from ICE in Boston and then get into the numbers. Please consider listening directly through RealCarpodcastcom and you can get a seven-day free trial to try it out and see if you like it. Thank you.
Speaker 2:It's a frigid five degrees in the pre-dawn hours just outside of Boston, where this team of elite ICE officers is briefing on their targets for the day. We're going to be targeting some extremely violent offenders today. Within moments, the officers are on the move with eyes on their first target. They quickly take him into custody. He's an MS-13 gang member wanted in El Salvador for aggravated murder, and he has an Interpol red notice out for his arrest. We are targeting very violent threats to our community.
Speaker 1:I'm not going back to them.
Speaker 2:One of those threats is this illegal alien from Haiti Ice says he's a gang member with 17 criminal convictions in recent years.
Speaker 1:You put me little Biden, put Alvaro, put Obama, put everything that he said for me, bro.
Speaker 2:Ice Boston quickly takes down its next targets, including this illegal alien from Brazil who has an Interpol red notice for armed robbery, this Salvadoran illegal alien charged locally with rape and released by a sanctuary jurisdiction, and this Dominican illegal alien charged with assault with a deadly weapon and heroin trafficking. Officers also arrested this Guatemalan MS-13 gang member facing gun charges. Ice says he was released from local custody just the day before their detainer request was ignored because of sanctuary policies and in a sign of shifting priorities with the new Trump administration. This man, who was in the same apartment as the target, was also arrested after ICE determined he's also in the US illegally. This is what ICE calls collateral. So you guys got your main target just now, but you got somebody else. What just happened?
Speaker 2:So our main target was released by a sanctuary jurisdiction not honoring a detainer. That person was released back to the United States and when we went to go find him, he's with somebody else who was previously removed from the United States. So he's going to go today too, and that is exactly what Border Czar Tom Holman has warned would happen. When we find the bad guy, he's probably with others Others that are in the United States illegally. They may not be a criminal priority, but we're not walking away from them. Ice Boston says they will continue to go into sanctuary jurisdictions and do their job.
Speaker 1:Immigration Customs Enforcement is moving through the country, removing violent aliens from the nation. Some people are very upset by this. I'm puzzled as to why, and some people are, of course, happy about it. I'm one of those people. I'm going to tell you specifically why I'm someone who is happy about this. Obviously, I think someone who is in the country legally and who has committed violent assault is a danger to the community.
Speaker 1:This is not the same as saying immigrants are criminals disproportionately. I actually don't know the stats on that. What I do know is that it's a false cause narrative. The argument is not that immigrants are criminals disproportionately, although if they were, that would be something to take into account. The argument is that you don't import crime to a nation that already has a high incarceration rate and trouble enforcing its own laws domestically. You don't import additional problems. But much more importantly, my position here comes from experience.
Speaker 1:I was a court-appointed assessor for the Superior Court of California for juveniles who had been abused and traumatized in many ways and helped this court decide what to do with them and how to help them, and many of these children were the children of illegal immigrants near the southern border. I'm in San Diego County and it was just tragic to assess these kids and take note of their circumstances and the traumatic effects of what they'd been through, many of whom had been seriously sexually abused. This is a matter that I care deeply about. I don't know, actually, what someone's argument would be against me were I to say I'm very happy about closing up the southern border because, number one, you have to do that for a nation to have a border. But, number two, we're going to greatly reduce the amount of child sex trafficking as well as the amount of women raped coming over, which is staggering. If you are a woman coming over through a coyote territory, you are almost guaranteed to be raped on your way, and people left of center seem to be fine with that. They don't. Of course. When they're asked about it, they might give some platitudinal denial, but it's not talked about in any kind of meaningful way. It is the singular, most important humanitarian issue of the southern border. So let's talk about the reality.
Speaker 1:Over a half a million unaccompanied alien children have become victims of sexual assault and sex traffickers at our southern border. They've been sold into $150 billion a year industry in the United States. Do you realize this billion dollar a year industry in the United States. Do you realize this? This industry has existed in the United States to sell children into child sex trafficking. This has surged under the Biden-Harris administration and they lost contact with nearly 100,000 illegal migrant kids who were released to adult quote sponsors unquote. There have been documentaries on this. Dr Phil actually did a pretty good one. Border sent with notes that they're looking for a sponsor. They have an address with them and these little kids are often requested by perverts throughout the United States. They have contacts down in Mexico and other countries who then channel these kids specifically up to the people who requested them. So some evil pervert might request a particular kind of boy that he wants sent across the border and these smugglers will find that boy and that young child will make his way across the border and up to that quote sponsor. There are other reports that these children are also subjected to organ trafficking as well as forced labor, in addition to sexual exploitation.
Speaker 1:This is one of those issues that we have a giant red herring that is getting in the way of our public discourse. For the left right now they see this as somehow the United States is rounding up brown people and sending them away in some kind of 1940s Japanese internment camp. Again, I simply don't know what the reaction would be of someone who is presented with the facts that I just presented you with. What would they say if they didn't agree? No, that's not important. The exploitation of children is not important. The mass rape of women coming across the border is no, they don't care about that.
Speaker 1:And what exactly is happening in our sanctuary city areas where they are not complying with ICE and they're releasing violent criminals once they've been detained? That's the non-detainment policy of the sanctuary jurisdictions. They refuse to cooperate with the federal government. And then they have something called non-detainment, which means that when they arrest someone and a violent, terrible history comes up, they don't ping ice and say come, get them. They say it would be bad to keep you, it would be mean, so we're gonna let you go. As we look back on the casual indifference of the biden harris administration with respect to humanitarian efforts, and as we look back on the casual indifference of the Biden-Harris administration with respect to humanitarian efforts, and as we look back at the absolutely dismal HHS Secretary Javier Becerra and his complete indifference to these matters, this will be one of the worst administrations that has gone down in American history with respect to protecting human rights has gone down in American history with respect to protecting human rights. When they suspended the Remain in Mexico policy and they stopped the border wall construction, what they did was incentivize human sex trafficking smugglers. They signaled the US border is open for business.
Speaker 1:So, folks, real Clear members, I urge you not to get caught in the red herring. Don't get caught on your heels when you're talking with someone who disagrees with you on the matter of the border. Don't get put on the defensive as though you have to defend why you're such a bigot and want to close the border. That's not the issue. You're not a bigot. Humanitarian crisis. There's over half a million kids sold into sex trafficking. I care about them. I've looked in their eyes. I have sat with them for hours while they cried out their life story to me a complete stranger, because it was just overwhelming for someone to be interested in their story, someone to actually want to know the terrible traumas that had unfolded in their lives. When I sit down and talk with people, friends or otherwise, who want to come the terrible traumas that had unfolded in their lives. When I sit down and talk with people, friends or otherwise, who want to come across in a morally righteous manner to me that ain't playing. Not on this matter. It's not playing. You can go packing.
Speaker 1:There are some issues in life that you can middle around about and take perspective and get into the inner subjectivity of it all. This is not one of them. When you present a matter as grave as this, there is a good position and there is a bad position. It's that simple. There is a decent position and there is an indecent position. I firmly believe that you don't have to be left or right or of any particular persuasion to be decent. Matters that should unify all of us. It's important to take note of the people who are being deported In Boston.
Speaker 1:Ice has arrested many illegal immigrants with terrible criminal records, including MS-13, rapists and murderers, and that Haitian immigrant who I just played for you, who said fuck Trump, fuck Trump, biden forever. Thank Obama for everything he did for me, bro. He's got 18 convictions. Ramon Aparicio Pimentel is a Mexican national who was sentenced to 17 years in prison for attempted murder. He's gone. Ariel Rene Romis Patino is another Mexican national, sentenced to 62 months in prison for sexual exploitation of a child, and he was let free on the streets. Guess what Ice got him in San Francisco. Christopher Alexander Ramirez Olivia was a Honduran national, third-degree criminal sex conduct. Now he's gone. Pedro Julio Mejia, dominican Republic, convicted of sexual conduct against a child Out of here, from Buffalo. Jesus Perez, aggravated sexual abuse of a child, salt Lake City, apprehended Gone. Andres Orulio Parra, colombian national, convicted of sexual penetration with a foreign object on an unaware victim, let free to go through the streets of San Francisco. Ice got him Gone. Magdalena Magdaleno Zena Hernandez Garcia, mexico, let free in the United States after continuous sexual abuse of a child under the age of 14.
Speaker 1:Gokhan Adrugzul, from Turkey, is actually a known or suspected terrorist apprehended. So we need to set the record straight. There is a morally righteous reason for being very happy about these sweeps. This is one of those issues that is a moral inversion in terms of public discourse. The idea that you're going to object to the things that I have stated in this podcast and somehow be cast as a mean, bad, immoral person by those who you're conversing with or by how the mainstream media is trying to make you feel, is a complete moral inversion. That's a cluster B behavior to invert the truth. In fact, the refusal to detain these people and deport them is the moral problem, and for people who somehow get lost in the notion that this is an anti-brown person initiative, this is just stupid.
Speaker 1:The reason these people are all Mexican or El Salvadorian is because Mexico is on our southern border and Mexico is a third world country, and so are these other nations. They're higher in crime, they're less developed. They're higher in crime, they're less developed. Look to make this really clear and simple. I get the impression from people who I've talked to on this matter, who are left of center, that they believe that if America was not racist, that ICE would be detaining and arresting an equal distribution of races, aside from Hispanics, in the ICE raids. I just I don't know how people operate like this.
Speaker 1:The reason, obviously, that we're arresting people from Mexico and El Salvador and so forth is because that's where they came from and Norway is not on our southern border. If there were a lot of tall, pale, blonde people with funny accents and nice sweaters walking around committing crimes, I would want them arrested also, but Norway is not a third world country that shares a land border with us. I don't know if you knew that, and the Norwegians are clever, but they have not mastered walking across the ocean yet. I don't know if you knew that, and the Norwegians are clever, but they have not mastered walking across the ocean yet. So until the white walkers from Game of Thrones invade the country and start sex trafficking, I'm less concerned with an equal representation of Scandinavian-looking people as I am with getting whoever actually has committed sex trafficking and getting them out of here.
Speaker 1:Of course I'm being a little snarky here, but this matter appears so stupid that it deserves a kind of sarcasm. Look, there are going to be problems with the deportation efforts in the longer haul. I actually don't know what the Trump administration is planning to do with the 20 some odd million people who came over during the Biden administration. The idea of deporting all of them seems highly unrealistic to me, and I'm not sure that that's something that actually would be very good for the nation. So I'll have a different kind of analysis on the longer term model, but for now, to remove violent criminals who the hell could disagree with that? All right, folks, I hope this helped.
