Moises Ramirez

Moises Ramirez/Guatemala/Arson, Drug Possession

by G. George | May 14, 2026

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Moises Ramirez, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala, in Gainesville, Georgia, on charges of arson and drug possession.

Ramirez faces two criminal charges. Arson — the intentional burning of property — is a felony under Georgia law carrying mandatory prison sentences that vary based on whether the structure was occupied. Drug possession adds a controlled substance violation. Together, these charges reflect a dangerous combination of property crime and drug-related conduct.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officers apprehended Ramirez in Gainesville. He currently remains in federal immigration custody and faces removal proceedings before a Department of Justice immigration judge, with potential deportation back to Guatemala.
