ICE SAN DIEGO NABS 4 CONVICTED CHILD SEX OFFENDERS; LOCAL CLUSTER SIGNALS ENFORCEMENT PUSH NEAR DAYCARE, SCHOOLS

ICE’s San Diego field office arrested four noncitizens with prior convictions for child sex crimes on Sept. 25, taking them into custody for removal proceedings. Those arrested are citizens of Mexico, Vietnam, the Bahamas, and Cuba, with convictions including lewd acts with a child under 14, molestation, sexual assault of minors, rape, and failure to register as sex offenders. ICE emphasized public safety, noting one arrestee lived adjacent to an in‑home daycare two blocks from an elementary school. The arrests align with a recent San Diego–area cluster of ICE actions targeting convicted child sex offenders, including incidents tied to child‑care settings.
