Summary
Fifteen immigrants with criminal records were arrested over the weekend, DHS said, including people previously convicted of homicide, aggravated rape, child sex crimes and drug trafficking.
DHS said the sweep reflects the Trump administration's broader interior-enforcement push, with officials also targeting fraud cases and people who obtained U.S. citizenship fraudulently.
Named arrestees included a North Carolina homicide convict, a Louisiana aggravated-rape convict and a Florida cocaine-trafficking conspirator; nine others had convictions including witness tampering and assault with a deadly weapon.
442,000 formal deportations were recorded in 2025, while DHS says total removals topped 605,000 and Secretary Markwayne Mullin expects this year's deportations to surpass last year's within six weeks.
