34-year-old Osmar Mendez Martinez, an illegal immigrant from Mexico who is wanted in his home country for the murder and decapitation of his fiancée, was arrested in North Houston and then given back over to Mexican officials on Wednesday.
According to Breaking911, acting field office director for ERO (Enforcement and Removal Operations ) Houston Matt Baker said, "This is another example of the strong partnerships that the ERO Houston Field Office has with our international partners and ICE offices abroad."
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Houston Field Office transported Mendez Martinez, from the Montgomery Processing Center (MPC) to Juarez-Lincoln Bridge in Laredo, Texas where Mexican authorities took the man.
"The ability to receive intelligence from our attaché offices around the world and investigate those leads in near real-time to locate and remove dangerous fugitives from our community is an invaluable tool that strengthens public safety and bolsters international cooperation," Baker added.
In Mexico, it is alleged that in 2015 he strangled his fiancée, cut off her head, and burned her body. He then left her corpse in southeast Mexico, dumping it in Tabasco State Park. He then fled to the US and entered in November of 2015, but was captured and returned to Mexico after giving a fake name. He reentered America at a time and location that is unknown and managed to get away without being detained.
The acting ICE ERO AAR in Mexico City, Pedro R. Crescente III, said "This was another excellent opportunity for ERO to showcase the full extent of our portfolio, along with highlighting the extensive work that goes into building these collaborative relationships with our foreign law enforcement officials. From the initial investigation to the arrest, removal proceedings, and closing with successful repatriation – we all benefit in our mission of enforcing our commitment to making our communities safer and strengthening our international partnerships."
ICE ERO worked with Foreign Service National Investigators and Tabasco State prosecutors under the Security Alliance for Fugitive Enforcement (SAFE) program in the efforts.
Authorities believe Mendez Martinez took the identity of Maximo Garcia-Gutierrez while in the US, a dead Mexican citizen whose identity he took.
Mendez Martinez was arrested on February 9 and he was ordered to be deported on November 1.
Biden's border crisis has seen a record-high number of illegal immigrants pouring into the United States month after month. There were 2,378,944 encounters in the 2022 fiscal year. In 2021 a record number of 1,659,206 illegal immigrants crossed the southern border, and Joe
Biden secretly shipped many of those migrants to locations across the US.
Joe Biden drastically slowed the prosecution of illegal immigrants by almost 80 percent in 2021 despite the historic drug and human trafficking along the border.
