A Venezuelan national who illegally snuck into the United States may not be deported despite committing "at least 22 criminal offenses" in New York City, according to the New York Post and a recent House committee report.
A 10-page report from the House Judiciary Committee revealed that the Biden-Harris administration's open-border policies allowed Daniel Hernandez-Martinez — a 30-year-old Venezuelan national with suspected ties to Tren de Aragua, a violent gang — to remain in the country even after being accused of committing a string of crimes.
'Threatened and assaulted multiple people.'
Hernandez-Martinez was released into the U.S. in early 2023 "without any legal justification," according to the report. It is unclear what vetting procedures were followed when Border Patrol initially encountered him, the report noted.
