HOUSTON, Texas – Ice Enforcement and Removal Operations Officers have deported a 58-year-old Mexican national accused of raping a child in his home country. Illegal aliens from Mexico entered the United States illegally four times.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement Removal Operations (ERO) transported Nestor Flores Encarnacion from the Montgomery Processing Center in Conroe, Texas to the Juarez Lincoln Bridge in Laredo, Texas. Elo officers walked a man who illegally entered the United States four times across a bridge to Mexico. Officers transferred custody of the prisoners to Mexican authorities.

“This foreign fugitive entered the United States in violation of our nation's laws on four separate occasions to avoid prosecution in Mexico for allegedly raping a child,” Elo said. – said Brett A. Bradford, Houston Field Office Director. “Dangerous alien fugitives and criminals who are accused of or have committed heinous crimes like sexually assaulting children will not find safe haven in Southeast Texas.”

“Our immigration officers work tirelessly to successfully locate and apprehend undocumented aliens in the Houston area who threaten public safety, national security, and border security, and ensure that they are returned to their countries of origin.” We will not rest until we are no longer a threat to the community.'' Bradford said.
