Chicago DRO Arrests Fugitive Haitian Gang Member

Chicago—ICE detention and removal officers arrested a Haitian member of the Black Gangster Disciples street gang September 28.

Jores Vieux, 32, was arrested at his residence without incident. During the arrest, ICE officers found drug paraphernalia in Vieux’s apartment, including a scale, cutting board, small bags of what appeared to be marijuana, and “bombers”—cigars that are emptied out and repacked with marijuana. ICE officers called the Chicago Police, who took possession of the substances.

During an interview, Vieux admitted to ICE officers that he joined the Black Gangster Disciples as a teenager. He has two teardrop tattoos under his right eye. In the gang and prison culture, teardrop tattoos represent jail time, that the wearer has killed someone, or that they have lost a family member, friend or fellow gang member.

Vieux came to the United States as a legal permanent resident, or in 1981. He has a 1993 conviction in Cook County on drug charges, and a 1998 federal conviction in for counterfeiting. He was stripped of his legal immigration status and ordered deported by a federal immigration judge in March 2003. Vieux appealed his case, but lost. On Apr. 28, Vieux was ordered to surrender at the ICE office in Chicago for removal. He defied the order and remained in the U.S. as a fugitive.
