Violent illegal alien criminals are about to get a rude awakening in the state of Texas.
Republican Governor Greg Abbott has just announced a new initiative to crack down on illegals who commit violent crimes in America.
Abbott’s new scheme seeks to apprehend illegal immigrants in Texas who have been charged with sex crimes and violent offenses.
On Wednesday, Abbott rolled out the “10 Most Wanted Criminal Illegal Immigrants” list.
The list was published alongside the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Through the initiative, cash rewards will be given to anyone who provides law enforcement with information leading to the arrest of the illegal aliens on the list.
In a statement about the move, Abbott said:
“When President Joe Biden took office, he dismantled every effective border policy his predecessor put into place.
“As a result, we have seen record high levels of illegal immigration, including dangerous criminals and terrorists who are a threat to the public safety of our state and our nation.”
“Texas is a law-and-order state, and with the help of our fellow Texans, we will ensure that the illegal immigrants on this list are taken off our streets and put behind bars to keep our communities safe,” Abbott added.
“Texas will continue to take unprecedented action to protect Texans and our state from President Biden’s border crisis.”
Illegal aliens on the list include Victor Hugo Chox Gonzalez, who is wanted for aggravated sexual assault of a child.
Omar David Zavala also made the top ten for sexual assault and making a terroristic threat.
Other charges faced by individuals on the list include sex abuse of a child and smuggling offenses.
A detailed description of each crook along with a photo was published in the list:
In a statement about the new initiative, DPS Director Steve McCraw said:
“Criminals from around the world who enter the United States illegally and commit crimes in Texas are a threat to public safety.
“Individuals on Texas’ 10 Most Wanted Criminal Illegal Immigrants List are likely to commit other crimes, and DPS is enlisting the public’s help in apprehending these offenders before they commit additional crimes.
“I thank Governor Abbott and Texas Crime Stoppers for their partnership in launching this important program.”
Tipsters are instructed to call the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477).
People can also submit a tip through the DPS website.
As illegal immigration has skyrocketed to record highs under Democrat President Joe Biden, crimes committed by illegals have made national headlines.
Earlier this year, an illegal alien was charged with murdering Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student in Georgia.
The suspect, José Antonio Ibarra, had previously been apprehended illegally crossing into the United States and released.
President Donald Trump has said that Biden has unleashed an illegal alien crime wave on the United States.
Trump recently slammed Biden after an illegal alien from Venezuela was accused of shooting two NYPD cops.
