BOSTON — ICE Boston had a busy April. And by "busy" we mean they arrested child rapists, murder fugitives, an MS-13 killer, and a man who suffocated a pregnant woman — all in Massachusetts, all in one month.
Every arrest below is sourced directly from ICE Boston's own posts on X. We didn't editorialize the charges. We didn't have to.
Let's meet the cast.

The Final Count
Two child sex offenders. Two murder fugitives with Interpol Red Notices. An MS-13 gang member wanted for aggravated homicide. A man who suffocated a pregnant woman. A felony rapist with a removal order that was never enforced. A foreign fugitive who'd already been deported once and came back. And a man charged with indecent assault with a dangerous weapon on a family member.
Nine arrests. One month. One state.
And every one of these operations happened while Massachusetts Democrats fought to condemn ICE agents, block their funding, and file lawsuit after lawsuit to stop deportations. Activists physically blocked the Burlington ICE facility — twice — in the past five months. AG Campbell has filed dozens of challenges against federal immigration enforcement.
These agents go into the streets every day knowing that elected officials in the state they're protecting would rather see them defunded. And they still pulled child rapists, murder fugitives, and an MS-13 killer off Massachusetts streets in 30 days.
Tomorrow is May Day. Activists will march through Boston demanding an end to ICE operations. They're welcome to bring this list and explain which of these people should have been left alone.
