Juan Busto-Chavez/Mexico/Assault, Burglary, Attempted Reckless Manslaughter

ICE Denver arrested Juan Busto-Chavez, a 50-year-old citizen of Mexico and an illegal alien present in the United States. Busto-Chavez was taken into ICE custody due to a serious and violent criminal history that includes multiple felony-level offenses. Among his convictions is attempted reckless manslaughter—an offense indicating a disregard for human life that could have resulted in a fatal outcome. He also has been convicted of burglary, a crime involving unlawful entry with the intent to commit a further offense, which adds to the overall risk he poses to public safety.

Additionally, Busto-Chavez has a conviction for kidnapping, a highly serious crime involving the unlawful restraint of another individual, often associated with threats or use of force. He was also convicted of assault involving serious bodily injury with a deadly weapon, which indicates he caused significant harm to another person using a dangerous object. His criminal record further includes menacing, meaning he threatened others in a way that put them in fear of imminent bodily harm.

All of these offenses taken together represent a pattern of violence and criminal disregard for law and order. ICE has placed Busto-Chavez in detention, and he will remain in custody pending formal removal proceedings. His history of violent conduct will be a significant consideration in the adjudication of his immigration case, as ICE works to remove him from the country.
