Aureliano Escorcia Martinez/Mexico/Robbery, Kidnapping

Aureliano Escorcia Martinez, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico and active member of the Paisas gang, has been taken into federal custody following a series of serious violent and immigration offenses. Authorities report that Escorcia Martinez has prior convictions for robbery and kidnapping, along with two counts of illegal reentry after removal to Mexico.​

Officials say his Paisas gang affiliation and history of violent crime led investigators to flag him as a priority target during a recent enforcement operation. Records further indicate he is also facing a pending charge for driving under the influence, adding to a pattern of conduct that has repeatedly endangered the public.​

Escorcia Martinez remains in federal custody while immigration and criminal proceedings continue.
