WATCH: Four weeks ago, a frustrated ICE agent in the sanctuary city of Boston contacted me, telling me a group of anti-ICE agitators had just blown their operation to arrest a Salvadoran fugitive who is wanted in his home country on an arrest warrant for child rape & had been living near a Boston elementary school. He told me while he & his team were in their vehicles surveilling the target's residence in East Boston & waiting for him to come out, the ICE team was quickly surrounded by activists who blew whistles, cursed at them, and said they were traumatizing children at the nearby school down the street. Their cover was blown, the whole neighborhood was alerted, and the child rapist wasn't arrested. The agent provided me several videos of the activists interfering that day (February 12th) as they unknowingly protected the child rapist from ICE arrest due to blind opposition to ICE. The agent asked me to sit on the videos until they were able to arrest the target. I’m told that fugitive target is now in ICE custody four weeks later (arrested March 10th). The agent says the target, a child rapist, was on the streets four weeks longer than he should have been because activists interfered without having any clue who they were protecting - and they dealing with this almost every day. I’m told his the target’s name is WALTER ROBERTO VIDES-ORTEZ, a Salvadoran national who crossed the Texas border illegally in 2016, the same year that El Salvador issued an arrest warrant for him for the offense of child rape.
