Illegal immigrants’ days in the United States are over— and they can’t handle it.
In a shocking display of criminal weakness, a member of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang was seen sobbing as he was arrested, along with four other criminal illegal aliens, at a Florida Sam's Club. This latest capture underscores the Trump administration's strong commitment to removing every illegal immigrant from the U.S. For years, illegal aliens have been allowed to bypass the law, but that’s no longer the case. These criminals are a reminder that tough border security and a no-nonsense approach to crime are essential to protecting American citizens from such violent organizations.
Ramon Jesus Carpintero-Luna, an alleged member of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, known as the "Scotch Bandits," was seen sobbing during his police interrogation after being arrested for robbing several liquor stores in Florida. At one point, he dropped to his hands and knees, pleading for his freedom as officers entered the room.
Carpintero-Luna was one of five illegal immigrants arrested for running an organized retail theft ring that stole over $30,000 worth of high-end liquor in a series of 36 thefts across the state.
During a press conference, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd displayed photos of the suspected gang members. While some were smiling, Carpintero-Luna's photo stood out—he was seen crying uncontrollably.
“He’s not such a big bad guy when he’s locked up. Maybe he’s having visions of El Salvador prisons at some point in time in this future,” Judd said. “It’s not such a happy time.”
Judd went on to say that the suspect's life of crime is over, questioning whether the tears are because he can no longer steal or commit robberies. The sheriff emphasized that the arrests mark the end for the criminal illegal immigrants, and plans to charge them with racketeering, send them to state prison, and eventually deport them.
“Life as he knew it is over. Is he crying because he can’t steal from Americans anymore? Is he crying because he can’t rob people in the middle of the night anymore? Is he crying because he can’t rip off high end liquor,” Judd said. “This is the end of the road for him and his companions. I hope he has his traveling clothes on because we want to charge them with racketeering and send them to state prison for a very long time. And then deport them.”
Samuel Oglis, David Anthony Charle, and Alexis Jose Rodriguez-Benavides are known Tren de Aragua gang members. At the same time, Carpintero-Luna, Ildemaro Miguel Escalona Mendoza, and Darwin Smith Vasquez Leon are considered associates.
Judd explained that the investigation into the retail crimes began last year when a grocery store in Central Florida reported a series of liquor thefts. Walmart and Sam’s Club also reported similar thefts at their locations, prompting authorities to open an investigation.
