🚨Organized Migrant Gangs Fuel Crime Wave Across New York City New York City is in the midst of a serious crime wave fueled by organized migrant gangs that operate in all five boroughs. These gangs aren’t just petty criminals; they are part of a highly structured, organized crime syndicate that is causing havoc across the city. Migrants themselves are often their victims, while these gangs look at our justice system as a joke, using its weaknesses to their advantage. One of the biggest drivers behind this crime surge is the Venezuelan gang Tren de Agua, which has been at the forefront of these criminal activities. In neighborhoods like Sheepshead Bay, Gravesend, and Midtown Manhattan, shoplifting has become rampant. Store owners are routinely robbed by groups of migrants, who come in with strollers stuffed with stolen goods. This might sound like small-time theft, but it’s not—these actions are carried out in coordination, with gang members reporting up the chain of command to their leaders. It’s not just young gang members involved; older members issue orders and organize operations, turning what might look like minor crimes into a much larger issue. Central Park has seen massive robbery crews operating over the past few months, robbing 20 to 30 people at a time, and it’s clear these gangs are far more organized than they appear on the surface. I was one of the first to report on the rise of scooter robbery crews, who were robbing people across the city. People doubted me at first, but it was soon proven to be true. These crews were stealing from New Yorkers at an alarming rate. The level of violence has also escalated. Gangs linked to multiple murders have spread across New York City, turning once-safe neighborhoods into danger zones. Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, long known for prostitution, has become a hub for gang activity, with Tren de Agua extorting local store owners, who are too terrified to speak out. Guns are now being pulled off migrants in shelters more frequently than ever before, highlighting the real and growing threat. It’s no longer just about theft. These gangs are involved in violent crimes, including slashings, stabbings, and even human trafficking. There are rumors of children as young as 12 being trafficked by these criminal organizations. The gangs don’t just target random people either; many of their victims are fellow migrants, whom they extort and terrorize within shelters. One particularly chilling case I’ve followed is a migrant who’s been arrested multiple times for robberies and a slashing of a 15-year-old boy. Despite these serious crimes, he was released and sent right back to his shelter. He’s just one example of how the system is failing to stop these gang members, allowing them to continue their criminal operations. In Brooklyn, three people were killed during riots at a migrant shelter, showing the deadly consequences of these gangs’ influence. This organized crime has infiltrated many of the migrant shelters around the city, creating fear among residents and endangering everyone. If proper vetting had been done at the border, these dangerous criminals would have never entered the country. The lack of border control has allowed these gangs to establish a foothold in New York, where they’re now wreaking havoc. It’s clear that what many see as petty crime is, in fact, part of a much larger problem—organized crime syndicates exploiting the city’s vulnerabilities. Without a stronger, more coordinated response, these migrant gangs will continue to take advantage of the system, spreading violence, fear, and chaos throughout New York City.

🚨What Are You Doing at the Migrant Shelters, Eric? Here’s the truth , sources state. ⚠️ New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been quietly moving migrants from HERRC (Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Centers), funded by the city, into Department of Homeless Services (DHS) shelters, which are backed by federal dollars. This shift, confirmed by sources at multiple migrant shelters and hotels, appears to be Adams’ strategy to ease the immense financial burden on New York City as the cost of the migrant crisis soars to $5.6 billion annually. HERRC, operated by Health and Hospitals, is funded by New York City taxpayers, while DHS facilities receive federal funding. By moving migrants into federally funded DHS shelters, Adams is aiming to shift the financial burden away from the city and onto federal programs. For more than a year, Adams and his staff have publicly complained about the overwhelming expenses tied to the migrant influx, repeatedly asking the federal government for help. Having spent time at City Hall, I witnessed firsthand how frustrated Adams and his team became—if Adams had hair, he would have pulled it out from the stress of dealing with this crisis. The rising costs have led to deep budget cuts across the city, impacting key agencies and essential services. New Yorkers are feeling the effects as resources are redirected toward managing the migrant situation, leaving other critical areas underfunded. Now, Adams finds himself at the center of a federal indictment, which he claims is politically motivated. According to the mayor, the indictment is retaliation for his vocal criticism of the federal government's handling of the migrant crisis. Former President Donald Trump has even come out in support of Adams, backing the claim that the federal probe is linked to Adams' outspokenness on the crisis. While Adams' decision to move migrants to federally funded shelters may offer some financial relief, it raises bigger questions: Is this a short-term fix or a way to deflect growing criticism? With figures like Trump weighing in, the spotlight on Adams is only getting brighter, and the pressure to find a long-term solution continues to mount.

🚨Exclusive :ICE Presence Growing at NYC Courts Amid Sanctuary Law and Jail Access Challenges? ICE agents are increasingly being spotted at courthouses and other public locations in New York City—something that could have been avoided if federal agents had been allowed access to Rikers Island and local jails. This issue stems from a recent decision by a city judge who blocked an executive order signed by Mayor Eric Adams. That order would have granted ICE permission to enter local jails to detain and deport violent migrant offenders. The judge’s ruling essentially forces federal agents to find alternate ways to track down migrants with criminal records—including showing up in public places and courtrooms. The people I’ve spoken with say they don’t want good, hard-working migrants deported. They say, “These guys mow our lawns, fix our cars, help maintain our homes. Sometimes, they just stop showing up—and later we find out they were deported.” Meanwhile, the gang members—who should have been deported—are somehow still walking free. A while back, former Border Czar Tom Homan warned that if ICE wasn’t allowed into the jails, agents would have to find these criminals elsewhere. He said, “If we run into other undocumented migrants while we’re out looking for the bad guys, we’ll take them too.” Homan even added on multiple occasions, “If sanctuary cities don't want to help us find the bad guys, we'll flood sanctuary cities with armies of federal agents to find the bad guys on our own.” That policy has now become reality. Homan made those remarks before the city judge blocked the mayor’s executive order. What’s even more troubling is that NYPD officers—and I myself—have tracked known gang members who went through Rikers Island only to be released and commit more crimes. Some now have fresh warrants for violent attacks against officers or civilians. These are not small-time offenders. Under New York City’s sanctuary city law, local authorities are allowed to turn over migrants to ICE if they have committed any one of 20 serious crimes — including violent offenses like murder, assault, robbery, and certain sex crimes. In other words, the law already permits cooperation in removing dangerous offenders. The problem isn’t the law itself; it’s the refusal to enforce it fully. Federal agents are blocked from accessing jails like Rikers Island where these offenders are held, forcing ICE to chase them elsewhere — often in public courts or neighborhoods — putting law-abiding migrants at greater risk of being caught up in enforcement actions. Some of the gang members that cycle through Rikers are not just any gang members. Some have been convicted of serious violent crimes and are tied to international criminal organizations like Venezuela’s Tren de Agua (TDA)—a gang the U.S. considers a designated terrorist group. These criminals don’t just pose a threat to the public—they prey on other migrants, knowing they are the most vulnerable targets. So, whose fault is it that ICE is now forced to show up at courthouses, homes, and job sites? That blame falls on city leadership and the judge who blocked Mayor Eric Adams’ executive order. Instead of allowing ICE to pick up gang members directly from Rikers Island — where no innocent person would be at risk — the city tied their hands. Now, while searching for violent offenders, federal agents may end up detaining otherwise law-abiding undocumented migrants. By keeping ICE out of Rikers Island, politicians and judges have made the city less safe—not just for citizens, but for the migrant communities they claim to protect. By Leeroy Johnson .

🚨“THEY USED THE KIDS”: Inside NYC’s Migrant Underground — Theft Rings, Fake Families, Forced Labor & Trafficking Allegations By Leeroy Johnson Behind the chaos of New York City’s migrant crisis lies a disturbing truth — migrant children are being exploited, and almost no one wants to talk about it. Through video footage I captured, interviews with hotel and shelter staff, and tips from law enforcement sources, a pattern of manipulation, abuse, and trafficking has emerged. And yet, many continue to look the other way. 🔴 Toddlers Involved in Shoplifting Rings I personally filmed NYPD officers arresting migrant shoplifting crews who used children — some as young as three years old — to help carry out the thefts. These kids were used to conceal stolen goods or distract store workers. 🔴 Minors Used in Pickpocket Crews In crowded public areas, migrant children have been observed working alongside adult pickpockets. Some children were actively removing items from people’s bags and pockets — others were used as distractions or lookouts. 🔴 Children “Rented Out” for Begging — With Reports of Abuse Staff from multiple shelters reported that some migrant children were passed between adults to beg on the streets or go door-to-door asking for money. One troubling case at the Roosevelt Hotel involved a child who was reportedly harmed after being entrusted to an adult acquaintance. Staff members expressed concern about the lack of oversight and accountability. 🔴 “Recycling” Children to Gain Shelter Access According to hotel staff, some adults falsely claimed unrelated children as their own to repeatedly qualify for free rooms. This tactic — known among insiders as “recycling” kids — was reportedly common and in some cases overlooked by staff. 🔴 Underage Migrants Used in Gang Violence NYPD sources told me that older gang members were using underage migrants to commit robberies, slashings, and assaults — exploiting the fact that minors face reduced legal consequences. These youth were being used to carry out violent acts for adult gang members. 🔴 Forced Labor Involving Very Young Children Credible reports indicate that migrant children as young as 3 to 6 years old were seen working in parts of NYC — helping adults with street vending, deliveries, and other labor. Some sources described this as a form of modern-day exploitation. 🔴 Allegations of Inappropriate Recordings Involving Minors Hotel staff shared disturbing allegations that some underage boys had brought younger girls — also believed to be minors — into hotel rooms. Staff feared that exploitative material was being recorded, but say it was never properly investigated. 🔴 Claims of Underage Human Trafficking Inside Hotels Perhaps the most serious claim: multiple hotel staff members alleged underage human trafficking was happening within hotel shelters. They described seeing minors being moved in and out by adults who appeared to have no legitimate guardianship — and said they reported these patterns but were ignored. ❗ For some reason, no one wants to talk about these issues involving migrant children — not even open-border activists, who have stayed silent about the harm these kids are facing. Some city officials still refuse to acknowledge that children have been hurt during this crisis — despite the growing evidence from those on the ground. This story is based on real footage, firsthand accounts, and trusted insider sources. It is not speculation . For licensing email [email protected]

The Mental Health Crisis in New York City: A System in Disarray New York City’s mental health and homelessness crisis, already severe, worsened in the wake of COVID-19. The isolation and trauma of the pandemic pushed many into mental health struggles, with some turning to drugs as a way to cope. As a result, the city is now grappling with a system that fails to adequately help its most vulnerable. Having spent years on the streets, researching this issue and speaking with hundreds of individuals, including both professionals and homeless New Yorkers, I’ve seen firsthand the extent of the problem. From Penn Station to Washington Square Park, the streets are filled with individuals struggling with severe mental health and addiction issues. Many of these individuals refuse to enter city shelters, citing the violence and unsafe conditions that make living on the streets seem like a safer option. “It’s safer on the street,” they say, as shelters are often described as places filled with crime and exploitation. At some locations where homeless people are living, cops are left as babysitters, assigned to watch over them while they should be fighting crime elsewhere. This not only wastes valuable resources but also highlights how the system has failed to address the root causes of homelessness and mental health crises. When police bring people in crisis to hospitals, they’re often released within 20 to 30 minutes, particularly if they lack insurance. This revolving door continues as the system struggles to provide proper treatment, due to both legal restrictions and underfunded services. Unless someone is deemed an immediate danger, intervention must be voluntary. But many individuals suffering from mental illness and addiction believe they’re fine, keeping them trapped in the cycle of homelessness and untreated conditions. Recent violent incidents, including stabbings and the death of multiplevictims, highlight the dangers of untreated mental illness in public spaces. Washington Square Park, for example, has become a hotspot where vulnerable individuals, often struggling with mental health and addiction, are preyed upon by drug dealers. The lack of intervention puts both these individuals and the public at risk. Politicians remain divided on how to solve the crisis. Some advocate for allowing the homeless to live on the streets, citing personal freedom, while others argue for involuntary treatment for those who pose a risk to themselves or others. The debate over how to handle those in crisis is complicated, with each side offering a different vision for what should happen next. Many individuals in the crisis have expressed a desire for help. “If I could get help, I know I could do better,” one man told me. But help remains scarce. Shelters must be made safer, hospitals must offer long-term care, and laws need to allow for earlier intervention. For those who don’t believe they need help, outreach and education are key to breaking through the denial. New York City has an opportunity to address this crisis, but it requires a unified approach that balances compassion, safety, and effective intervention. If the city can overcome its divisions and create a cohesive strategy, it can begin to break the cycle of mental illness and homelessness that continues to plague its streets.

Beaten to Death Outside Midtown Shelter: Migrant Man Killed in Brutal Robbery, Two Arrested :Exclusive A violent robbery outside a homeless shelter in Midtown Manhattan has now been reclassified as a homicide, according to sources. Investigators say 36-year-old migrant Santiago Ajsac Sirin was beaten to death outside the shelter where he was living. The incident was initially investigated as an assault but was upgraded after Sirin succumbed to his injuries. Police have arrested two men in connection with the fatal attack: Lavel Boddie, 32, of Brooklyn, and Fritzgens Delia, 32, of Manhattan. Sources state that one suspect lived in the same shelter as the victim, while the other was staying at a different homeless shelter in Brooklyn. Authorities believe the pair targeted Sirin in a robbery that escalated into a deadly beating. It remains unclear if Sirin and Delia knew each other personally from the shelter system, though sources confirm they both lived at the same facility at some point. According to sources, Delia has been in and out of the city’s shelter system for years. He reportedly had a long shelter stay beginning in December 2019, left in August 2023, and returned in July 2024. Boddie had been staying at the Kingsboro STAR shelter for approximately three months, from June 2025 through September 2025. The killing comes as homeless shelters across New York City continue to face ongoing issues with violence, drugs, and other illicit activity, according to residents and sources familiar with conditions inside the system. The investigation remains ongoing. By Leeroy Johnson For licensing email [email protected]

Exposing Fraud and Crime in the Migrant Crisis: What I Found and the Retaliation That Followed : Exclusive During my investigation into the migrant crisis, a staff member at a taxpayer-funded shelter came forward with allegations of widespread fraud, including no-show jobs, empty rooms being billed, and expenses unrelated to migrant services. According to sources, the no-show positions alone were costing taxpayers millions of dollars per month, amounting to tens of millions annually. I believe this represented only a small portion of a much larger problem tied to migrant contracts. The migrant program has cost taxpayers more than $7 billion, nearly 20 times more per migrant than Chicago. I immediately brought this information to someone close to government and requested to speak with a senior City Hall official. That person told me they were already aware of the misconduct and stated, “everybody does this.” After that conversation, the same individual attempted to give me access to information and opportunities that no other journalists had. At the same time, I was discouraged from reporting on the alleged scams and urged to move on from the story. Despite that pressure, I continued my reporting and ultimately published the findings they had wanted buried. As my reporting expanded, I began focusing on alleged organized criminal activity operating out of some taxpayer-funded migrant hotels. Multiple sources alleged these locations were being exploited as hubs for serious crimes, including child exploitation, illegal gun sales, drug trafficking, and other illicit activity. Some shelter rules appeared structured in ways that limited law enforcement involvement or meaningful oversight, allowing criminal enterprises to continue operating unchecked. It often felt as though one arm of the system was undermining the other—despite both operating under the same authority. After I published the reporting on fraud and criminal activity, the response from some at City Hall shifted sharply. Messages went unanswered. Calls were ignored. Requests for information were met with silence. My primary contacts and sources within City Hall cut me off completely after the stories were released. Some people I approached for questions and information no longer responded—no more information was coming in. At the same time, certain individuals outside of City Hall warned me that I was “messing with other people’s money,” suggesting that financial interests and external actors were attempting to intimidate me and influence how the story was handled. Months later, the consequences escalated further. I was informed that a police officer had been approaching other officers on the street, warning them not to speak with me and falsely claiming that I get officers in trouble, and could not be trusted. The apparent goal was to isolate me, intimidate sources, and disrupt the flow of information. Importantly, I do not believe this misconduct was limited to one political party. Based on what I encountered, I believe individuals aligned with both Democrats and some Republicans had involvement in, or benefited from, aspects of the migrant crisis and the contracts surrounding it. The issue appeared less about politics and more about money, access, and the absence of accountability. Reporting on these issues came with professional consequences: access was restricted, sources were chilled, and retaliation followed publication rather than preceding it. The experience underscores the risks journalists face when investigating misconduct tied to government-run programs and taxpayer-funded contracts—particularly when those investigations intersect with powerful financial interests, organized criminal activity, and institutional resistance to oversight.

🚨Little Devils Gang Terrorizes Midtown, Threatening NYC’s Tax Revenue and Local Businesses. This morning, around 10 AM, they robbed an innocent New Yorker in broad daylight. Four suspects were arrested and taken to Downtown Manhattan courthouse A few hours later, the same crew hit Five Below. What started as shoplifting quickly escalated when they pulled a knife on employees, turning it into a full-blown robbery, according to sources. This isn’t a one-off. Every single day, this crew is tied to multiple incidents—robberies, shoplifting, and violent confrontations. They run through the city with complete impunity, fully aware that because of their age, the law rarely holds them accountable, according to sources. Most of these younger gang members live in taxpayer-funded shelters. They get arrested, they rob people, they stab people, and then they return to their city-funded accommodations. Parents of these suspects do nothing. Why are New Yorkers paying for these gang members to hurt people—and then paying for their safe return? Business owners have been telling me this gang is costing them tons of money, not only through theft but by scaring away customers. With the holiday season around the corner, tourists may avoid spending money in Midtown or even in New York. Some may even tell friends they got robbed while visiting the city, which could have a lasting impact on tourism and local businesses. Midtown alone generates roughly 20% of New York City’s taxpayer revenue. Yet gangs like the Little Devils, coming from the Bronx or Queens, are terrorizing the area, hurting local businesses, scaring residents and visitors, and costing the city millions. If nothing changes, sooner or later they’re going to kill a cop or an innocent person. The situation is spiraling out of control, and Midtown is on edge. Every day there’s another crime, and every day they get bolder. This gang is a ticking time bomb, and the city’s residents, tourists, and businesses are watching in fear.

Federal Sources: Juvenile Migrant Gang Members Shielded from Deportation, Even After Violent Crimes By LeeroyPress Federal sources have confirmed to Viral News NYC that juvenile migrant gang members are largely off-limits from deportation, even after being charged with violent crimes. What was meant to be a protective measure for vulnerable youth is now being exploited by criminal networks operating across New York City — especially in Midtown Manhattan, where the majority of the issues are concentrated. According to NYPD officers, Midtown has become the epicenter of gang activity involving young migrants. These groups, often moving in organized packs, are involved in everything from petty theft and robberies to stabbings, slashings, and shootings. In multiple cases, local deadly gangs have actively recruited these younger migrant gang members, using them to carry out violent acts because they face lighter penalties due to their age. I’ve personally reported on numerous bloody crime scenes, with pools of blood on the street left behind from brutal knife attacks. These juveniles often behave like a pack of wolves, surrounding a target, stabbing them, and fleeing before help can arrive. My coverage on Viral News NYC shows the raw aftermath: gruesome pools of blood, torn clothing, and trauma left behind for the community. Officers say 34 of these migrant juveniles have been arrested more than 270 times combined — and they're immediately released after each arrest. “They’re not mandated to any kind of behavior program,” said one source. “They get arrested, joke about it with their parents at the precinct, and go right back to the street.” Disturbingly, some of these juveniles have been arrested multiple times with firearms. “There are repeat offenders who are still walking the streets with prior gun charges,” one officer said. “And we’re supposed to pretend age makes them harmless?” Another cop told me bluntly: “Just because they’re 16 doesn’t make any difference to a stabbed or shot victim. Blood is blood.” While some of these offenders are indeed minors, many are suspected of lying about their age. “We don’t know their real age,” said an officer. “They come across the border, and boom — they get a new identity, new birth date, and we have to take their word for it.” Older gang members often direct the younger ones to commit crimes, knowing they’ll face minimal consequences. “It’s a game,” one officer added. “The adults stay out of sight. The kids do the crime and walk.” It’s not just the public that’s at risk — these juveniles are dying too. I’ve reported on several migrant gang members under 18 who were stabbed to death by rival crews. One was stabbed in the neck and bled out on the sidewalk. Another was stabbed in the stomach and died at the scene. A 14-year-old migrant gang member is currently in a coma after being stabbed in the head — clinging to life in a hospital bed. Even worse, they seem to enjoy the attention. “They laugh when they see themselves on the news,” said an NYPD source. “It’s a badge of honor to them.” One officer warned, “Sooner or later, Leeroy, they’re going to kill someone completely innocent. It’s not ‘if’ — it’s when.” Officers are calling for change. “If we’re not going to deport them, then mandate them to boot camp or a behavior modification facility upstate,” one said. “But doing nothing just ensures more blood on our streets.” While most migrants in New York City are not involved in crime, this small but violent group is taking advantage of a system with no teeth — and Midtown Manhattan is paying the price. It’s about time the local and federal government work together to fix this issue before more innocent people get hurt.

Armed Teens, Brutal Robberies, and Gunfire: NYC’s migrant gangs Bring Midtown to Its Knees: Exclusive For months, Midtown Manhattan has been terrorized by a migrant crew known as the Little Devils — teens and young adults whose crimes have escalated from petty shoplifting to violent robberies, slashings, and now gunfire in the city’s busiest hubs. NYPD sources say they grow bolder every day, openly mocking officers and swinging blades without fear. “They don’t care about cops. They don’t care about the law. They act like the streets belong to them,” one officer said. A few years ago, I reported on this same crew — maybe some new faces, but the same circle pulling the same violent routines, including brutal robberies in Central Park. Back then, warnings were ignored. Now, the cycle has returned, stronger and more dangerous. The Little Devils have hit stores with strollers packed with stolen goods, grabbed chains off tourists in broad daylight, assaulted victims in the street, and nearly stabbed an NYPD officer during a confrontation. At times, they roam the streets in packs of 80 or more members, robbing anyone they cross paths with. Police confirm several have been recruited by established gangs, including the Trinitarios and Crips. Rival crews have started showing up in Midtown to challenge them, turning the streets into a chaotic battleground. Their violence is indiscriminate. A few nights ago, members of the crew beat up the mother of a different victim at the Row Hotel, showing they don’t care who they target — innocent bystanders are fair game. Most of these teens live in taxpayer-funded shelters, moving from one block to another with no fear of consequences. Store owners say they’re terrified. Employees are threatened, tourists avoid the blocks, and businesses report tens of thousands in lost revenue. One manager said, “Nobody wants to shop in a place where you could get jumped any second.” This week, the violence escalated further. Inside the 42nd Street–Port Authority station, a gunshot sent commuters running for their lives. Police recovered a shell casing and a knife, and arrested two 18-year-olds connected to the same crew. Crime statistics show Midtown is facing a spike in criminal activity directly tied to this crew. Sources estimate that the Little Devils are responsible for about 65% of the crime happening in the area, from petty theft to violent assaults. What was once small-scale theft has evolved into armed, unpredictable chaos. Every warning was there. Every pattern repeated. But now Midtown is living in a city under siege: rival gangs, massive packs of robbers, brazen attacks, terrified business owners, and a crew that grows more violent with every passing day — and shows no regard for anyone, anywhere By Leeroy Johnson For licensing email [email protected]

Gang Shootouts in Bronx Happen in Front of Police — Yet Media Chooses to Look Away. Gang violence is spiraling out of control in the Bronx and parts of Manhattan. The Trinitarios, Bloods, Crips, and several fringe groups are in open conflict, turning city streets into war zones. NYPD sources say officers are stationed on nearly every block in the Bronx, but that hasn’t stopped gang members from shooting at each other—sometimes right in front of police. Adding to the crisis, the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TDA) has infiltrated the Bronx. Some TDA members have crossed over and aligned with local gangs, making the situation even more volatile. Law enforcement sources tell me local gangs are aggressively recruiting minors, knowing that when younger members are arrested, they’re quickly released due to lenient laws. These juveniles are being used to commit violent and heinous crimes on behalf of older gang members. What’s more, the media largely ignores this ongoing crisis. Sources say as long as it doesn’t affect wealthy neighborhoods, the news simply doesn’t care. If it’s not happening in “good” neighborhoods, it doesn’t make headlines. This has long been the case for Black and Brown communities throughout New York City—not just the Bronx. Other neighborhoods are enduring multiple shootings daily, yet you rarely hear about it in the news. The violence continues to escalate, and entire communities are caught in the and entire communities are caught in the crossfire. By Leeroy Johnson For licensing email [email protected]

A group of alleged child predators were arrested after they'd been working around children and families aboard a Disney cruise. They were apprehended by the same immigration agents Democrats want to defund. KNSD reported Wednesday that a Disney cruise docked in San Diego after a trip with stops in Ensenada, Baja California, as well as Catalina Island, where federal agents took several employees into custody. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Sandra Grisolia released a statement about the raid: “On April 28, HSI San Diego arrested twenty-three crewmembers from multiple cruise ships at the Port of San Diego as part of Operation Tidal Wave. The arrests targeted individuals suspected of involvement with Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM), based on information received from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children." Political commentator Libs of TikTok posted footage of the arrests to social media platform X. "The arrestees were transported to Los Angeles for processing, and their visas were revoked," the ICE spokeswoman continued. The New York Post clarified that it's unclear which other ships from companies outside of Disney may have been involved. Dharmi Mehta, a passenger on a Disney cruise, said that witnessing the arrests was "really unsettling." She commented on the arrest of the head waiter, saying, “So that was just my big concern like how is he gonna reach out to his family? Does the family even know that he’s not getting back on the ship today?” Mehta later attended a press conference with immigrant rights groups. Benjamin Prado from Union del Barrio stated, “This is not an isolated incident,” adding, “In fact, it has become a growing pattern, not only here in San Diego but throughout this country. “It is our responsibility as a society, as working people, to really denounce these actions by Customs and Border Protection, by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the prolonged detention of migrant workers, whether it be here in our own community as well as those that work on ships." Perhaps Mehta and Prado feel differently now knowing they're defending accused child predators. The arrested included Filipinos, an Indonesian, and a Portuguese crewmember. Per the New York Post, U.S. Customs and Border Protection stated of those individuals, "Officers confirmed all subjects were involved in either the receipt, possession, transportation, distribution, or viewing of CSEM or child pornography." CSEM stands for "child sexual exploitation material." Disney needs to do a lot more vetting when hiring their crew members. Parents are likely mortified to know these monsters were lurking around their children. If Democrats had their way, the operation to catch these people would not have gone through. Immigration officials are compared to Adolf Hitler's Gestapo or some other secret police for a totalitarian regime. By interfering with their work, real evil is allowed to flourish.
