Tren de Aragua Sex Trafficking Ringleaders Arrested In Houston

Thursday, February 13th, 2025

Arrest by arrest, the Trump Administration and Republican governors are rounding up the illegal alien criminals that the Biden Administration deliberately let into the country.

Federal authorities recently completed two separate operations in Houston targeting criminal illegal aliens.

The first operation targeted illegal aliens indicted for their role in a Tren de Aragua sex trafficking scheme, while the second operation resulted in the arrest of illegal aliens and the seizure of drugs and a gun. Both took place this week.

At least two of the suspects apprehended in the first operation are accused of promising women in Venezuela a good life in the United States and then forcing them into prostitution.

The arrests are part of a case from the U.S. Attorney’s Office targeting a multistate sex trafficking ring with Tren de Aragua members accused of intimidating victims into compliance.

Eight people in total are charged for their roles in the sex trafficking ring.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Wildasin wrote to Texas Scorecard: “All of the defendants are Venezuelan. All are in the United States without any legal status. All are in federal custody with ICE detainers. For security reasons, we do not share where people are being detained.”

According to Wildasin, two of the suspects arrested in Houston are defendants Ariannys Beatriz Gutierrez-Carrillo and Endrik Alexander Morales-Rivero.

Defendants Frankyanna Del Valle Romero-Rivero and Jesus Enrique Castillo Rodriguez were arrested in Dallas, and Yuribetzi Del Valle Gomez Machuca was arrested in San Antonio.

After the first operation was made public by FBI Houston on Tuesday, a second operation conducted a day later was revealed. Two illegal aliens were arrested in that operation, and drugs and a gun were seized.

Snip.

Tren de Aragua was designated a foreign terrorist organization by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott last year.

“Tren de Aragua gangsters are like cockroaches,” said Department of Public Safety Director McCraw at the time.

“They multiply quickly; small intrusions into communities become infestations if not aggressively pursued. These Venezuelan thugs are highly combative, violent, and certainly adaptable. They’re always involved in situations that first start with human smuggling. Then they are involved in the extortion, kidnappings, rape, assaults, and sex trafficking of migrants.”

Earlier this month, Abbott directed the Texas National Guard and DPS to work with federal authorities to arrest and deport illegal aliens.

It’s impossible to fathom the leftist mindset that finds letting women be inducted into sexual slavery as a small price to pay for theoretically improving the electoral chances of the Democratic Party via illegal alien amnesty somewhere down the line.

Arrest by arrest, the evil work of the Biden Administration’s open borders policy is being undone.
