The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has disclosed details from a recent Chicago book, highlighting some of the “worst of the worst” criminals apprehended during the initial week of the Trump administration’s “Midway Blitz.”
This operation was named in memory of Katie Abraham, who tragically lost her life in a hit-and-run incident caused by a drunk driver, specifically Julio Kukul Bor, who had a criminal background.
“President Trump was quite clear—if politicians fail to prioritize the safety of citizens, this administration will. I was in Chicago today, making it known that we will not back down,” Secretary Christy Noem stated. “This morning, DHS launched arrests pertaining to violence, DUI, and felony stalking, essentially removing dangerous individuals from the streets. Our work has only just begun.”
The DHS has shared information about eleven of the most serious offenders contributing to crime in Chicago, despite state Democrats’ efforts to shield these individuals.
Christian Alejandro Lopez Urbantes, a Mexican national, faces charges for felony assault, domestic violence, and illegal re-entry.
Mauricio Garcia Vasquez, also from Mexico, has been charged with illegal weapon use and possession of ammunition.
Aldo Salazar Bajena is an undocumented immigrant from Mexico, previously convicted of murder.
Gabriel Soto Ribara, another Mexican national, has charges of domestic violence against him.
Catalino Alejandro Lux Sakuik, a criminal foreigner from Mexico, was arrested due to domestic violence amid a final removal order.
Javier Garcia Diego, also from Mexico, faces charges related to felony assault.
Jose Gonzalez Ortiz, a Mexican immigrant, has been arrested for sexual assault and has a battery conviction.
Jose Patino Juares, another criminal from Mexico, has been arrested for obstructing justice, assault, and disorderly conduct.
Rosario Perajo Salgado is a Mexican national with a history of multiple DUIs and convictions for felony vehicle theft, obstruction of justice, and drugs.
Jean Carlos Aranda Gonzalez, originally from Colombia, has been arrested for drug trafficking and has convictions for resisting officers, traffic violations, and theft.
Luis Manuel Caracquel Hernandez, a criminal immigrant from Venezuela, faces charges for assaults, trespassing, and various weapons offenses.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) maintains an ongoing list of these “worst of the worst.” The website details information about many dangerous offenders. This resource indicates, “Each of the illegal aliens listed has been convicted or accused of a serious crime that endangers American citizens, but they are now in ICE custody or have already been deported.”
