Aurelio Ramirez Perez/Mexico/Intimidation

Mexican national Aurelio Ramirez Perez, a criminal illegal alien, was arrested in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on an intimidation charge. Intimidation under Michigan law can involve threatening or harassing someone to influence what they tell police, discourage them from cooperating in an investigation, or frighten them because of who they are or what they witnessed.

Case-style resources on Michigan intimidation offenses explain that such conduct may include verbal threats, implied threats of harm, or actions aimed at scaring a victim or witness, and can be charged as a felony when tied to attempts to obstruct justice or cause injury. Ramirez Perez’s case fits within that framework, with authorities in Grand Rapids attributing threatening behavior to him and moving to place him under arrest on the intimidation count. He was booked on the charge, and his illegal status was noted in connection with the pending case.
