operate with President Trump's illegal immigration crackdown.

 New York City's Mayor Zohran Mamdani signed an executive order turning New York City into a shield for violent criminal illegal aliens to reoffend and create more innocent victims,  ICE NYC said in a statement.

Shortly after he took office in January, the newly-minted mayor signed an executive order to reinforce sanctuary protections and protect New Yorkers from  abusive immigration enforcement  by the Trump administration.

 Mamdani's action came after Gov. Kathy Hochul's legislative proposal to bar local police departments from partnering and cooperating with ICE law enforcement,  the agency added.

The most recent batch of criminal illegal aliens rounded up in the Empire State includes:

Mosiah Wright, a Jamaican national who was previously removed from the country who was convicted of murder by the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. His criminal history also includes arrests for carrying a concealed weapon illegally, drug possession, resisting arrest and probation violations.

Jose Fuentes-Saravia, a criminal illegal alien with a final order of removal from El Salvador convicted of sexual abuse, including sexual contact with individual less than 11 years old in Suffolk County.

Vicente Mejia-Marquez, of El Salvador, who was convicted of rape in the third degree and vaginal sexual contact with a person under 17 in Suffolk County.

Jose Israel Chapa Flores, an Ecuadorian national convicted of forcibly touching the sexual or intimate parts of another person and acting in a manner to injure a child under 17 in Suffolk County.

Blas Alberto Diaz, a previously removed criminal illegal alien from El Salvador, was convicted of sexual contact with a person incapable of consent in Nassau County.

Benjamin Quijada, a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador convicted of assault in Queens and wanted for the crimes of sex abuse of a minor and child abuse in Anne Arundel County, Maryland.

Franklin Saul Banegas-Cevallos, a previously removed criminal illegal alien from Honduras who was convicted of attempted drug possession and with a pending charge for attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance in New York.

All of the offenders are currently in ICE custody awaiting pending immigration and removal proceedings, according to ICE NYC.

The agency insists New York's failure to honor ICE detainers - which allow immigration authorities to pick up convicted criminals for deportation - has resulted in the release of 6,947 criminal illegal aliens in the state since Jan. 20, 2025.

Their crimes include 29 homicides, 2,509 assaults, 199 burglaries, 305 robberies, 392 dangerous drug offenses, 300 weapons offenses and 207 sexual predatory offenses, ICE claims.

As of Dec. 1, 7,113 aliens currently in custody in New York jails and prisons have active ICE detainers and have been convicted of 148 homicides, 717 assaults, 134 burglaries, 106 robberies, 235 dangerous drug offenses, 152 weapons offenses and 260 sexual predatory offenses, according to the agency.
