The U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Carlos Corte‑Corte, an Ecuadorian national, after a kidnapping incident in Patchogue, New York. Local police said Corte‑Corte took a four‑year‑old girl from a laundromat on March 28, and the child was later found at a nearby library. Following his arrest on local kidnapping charges, sanctuary politicians released him from jail. ICE re‑arrested Corte‑Corte on March 31 and placed him in removal proceedings. Corte‑Corte had entered the United States illegally at least three times in 2020 and was removed each time; he re‑entered illegally a fourth time before the incident. ICE Director Todd Lyons sent a letter to New York Attorney General Leticia James asking her to keep more than 7,000 criminal illegal aliens in state custody. As of December 1, New York had released 6,947 such individuals, including those convicted of homicide, assault, burglary, robbery, drug offenses.
