ICE asks North Carolina to hold illegal immigrant accused in toddler’s bathtub death

EXCLUSIVE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer against a criminal illegal alien who allegedly left a 14-month-old toddler to drown in a bathtub, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The ICE detainer asks North Carolina officials not to release Angel Israel Deras-Rivas, a Salvadoran national who was arrested Sunday in Garner.

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin criticized the Biden administration's immigration policies, arguing they contributed to the circumstances surrounding the case.
