ICE deportations of criminal suspects to Mexico

Entities: Juan Becerra Ruiz · Juárez-Lincoln bridge · Agustín Morales‑Renteria · U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement · Gabriel Martinez

Overview

In July 2026 ICE deported a Honduran MS‑13 member linked to Cartel del Noreste and later transferred two illegal immigrants wanted for aggravated homicide in Mexico via the Juárez‑Lincoln Bridge in Laredo. The agency also filed a detainer for a Mexican national convicted of second‑degree murder in Nashville, showing a broadening of removal actions against serious offenders.

The pattern continued in late July when ICE handed over two 24‑year‑old Mexican nationals, Agustín Morales Rentería and Juan Becerra Ruiz, to Mexican authorities at the same Laredo bridge. Both are wanted for homicide offenses in Querétaro; Morales also faces a U.S. firearms conviction. They were processed at the Montgomery Processing Center in Conroe before transfer. Mexican officials assumed custody to pursue the pending criminal cases.

These successive operations illustrate ICE’s ongoing focus on repatriating individuals charged with violent crimes to Mexico, employing coordinated processing facilities and bilateral cooperation at key border crossings.
