ICE Deports Honduran Woman Convicted of Attempted Murder of Newborn

On April 15, 2026, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deported Soili Xiomara Aparicio‑Santos, a Honduran national who had been convicted in 2018 of second‑degree attempted murder for attempting to smother her one‑day‑old son with a pillow, along with related assault and child‑welfare charges. Aparicio‑Santos had been sentenced to 16 years, but an appeal reduced her sentence to 10 years. She served eight years in a New York prison before her release, which was coordinated with local law enforcement. ICE arrested her on April 7, 2026, and completed her removal the following day. The Acting Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security described the case as a serious threat and noted that cooperation with local authorities helped bring her out of the country.
