ICE Arrests Trio of Criminal Illegal Aliens Convicted of Child Sex Crimes in Minnesota in One Day

Release Date: April 16, 2026
Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, we will not allow criminal illegal aliens to rape and sexually abuse children

WASHINGTON – Today, the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents arrested three criminal illegal aliens convicted of sex crimes against children in Minnesota in one day.

“In one day, ICE law enforcement arrested THREE CONVICTED CHILD PREDATORS in Minnesota,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “These sickos can no longer prey on innocent children. No one should want these dirtbags in their communities. President Trump and Secretary Mullin are putting the safety of children first.”

The three arrests on April 14, 2026, of convicted pedophiles included:

HSI special agents arrested Rene Rosario-Miranda, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala convicted of third-degree aggravated sexual abuse of a minor, in Worthington, Minnesota.

HSI special agents also arrested Axel Javier Martinez-Castillo, a criminal illegal alien from Honduras, in Worthington, Minnesota. Martinez-Castillo's criminal history includes the sexual assault of a 7-year-old.

HSI agents additionally arrested Rene Flores-Lue in Luverne, Minnesota. Flores-Lue, a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador, is a convicted rapist of a 5-year-old.

The public can report crimes and criminal aliens like Rosario-Miranda, Martinez-Castillo, and Flores-Lue by dialing 866-DHS-2-ICE (866-347-2423) or completing the online tip form.
