Jose Gregorio Rios Rios/Venezuela/Felony Assault

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested Jose Gregorio Rios Rios, a Venezuelan national convicted of two counts of felony assault. The arrest follows Rios Rios’s criminal convictions on multiple violent assault charges.

According to authorities, Rios Rios was convicted on two separate felony assault charges, establishing a pattern of violent criminal behavior. ICE officials state that the dual convictions demonstrated repeated violent conduct that resulted in federal immigration enforcement action. Details about the specific assault incidents leading to the convictions have not been publicly disclosed.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations took Rios Rios into custody following completion of his criminal sentence. He is currently being held in federal immigration detention pending removal proceedings back to Venezuela. The agency emphasizes that foreign nationals with multiple violent crime convictions face priority enforcement and expedited deportation.

“Removing repeat violent offenders from our communities remains a top priority,” an ICE spokesman stated. The organization continues to target individuals with patterns of violent criminal behavior for arrest and deportation.

Rios Rios’s case reflects federal immigration enforcement efforts focused on individuals with multiple felony convictions. ICE coordinates with local law enforcement and court systems to identify and apprehend foreign nationals convicted of serious violent crimes following completion of their criminal sentences.
