Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have arrested what officials are calling “monstrous” illegal aliens convicted of sex crimes, most against children, across the United States over the weekend.

“Over the weekend, our brave ICE agents arrested monstrous illegal aliens convicted of heinous crimes, including rape of a child, sexual assault, and possession of child pornography. ICE is putting their lives on the line to keep America’s children and families safe,” the Department of Homeland Security’s Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement:

Yet, they are now facing a nearly 700 percent increase in assaults against them as gutter politicians attempt to attack and demonize our brave law enforcement. This is sick. We will only double down in getting these dangerous criminals off of our streets. [Emphasis added]

Indeed, over the weekend, ICE agents arrested 45-year-old illegal alien Porfirio Bernal-Fregoso of Mexico in Durham County, North Carolina. Bernal-Fregoso has been convicted of attempted rape of a child and indecent liberties with a child.
