NEWARK, N.J. — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations officers in Newark arrested Juan Luis Ramos Marin, 23, an illegal alien and Venezuelan fugitive wanted for homicide in his home country, in East Orange April 29.
“This illegal alien wanted for a violent crime committed overseas was placed into removal proceedings for violating immigration law by illegally entering the United States,” said ICE Newark Field Office Director John Tsoukaris. “Ramos is a criminal alien with multiple charges for crimes committed on the East Coast primarily related to theft. We are dedicated to keeping our public safe from fugitives who think they can hide in the U.S.”
On an unknown date and an unknown place, Ramos entered the United States, without being inspected, admitted or paroled by an immigration officer.
Ramos has criminal convictions in the United States for disorderly conduct and petit larceny, with pending charges for multiple theft-related offenses, including property theft valued between $100 and $25,000, and possession of stolen property with intent to sell.
On April 9, the U.S. Border Patrol referred Ramos to ICE Newark, identifying him as a fugitive from justice in Brazil.
ICE Newark, with assistance from Homeland Security Investigations Newark and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, arrested Ramos April 29 and served him with a notice to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge. He is detained in ICE custody without bond.
