Carlos Rojas Morales/Mexico/Drug Trafficking

Carlos Rojas Morales, age 34, a citizen of Mexico, was arrested by ICE in Kuna, Idaho, and transferred to federal custody for immigration processing. Officers documented the apprehension and initiated intake to determine custody status. Records reviewed at the time of arrest indicate he entered the United States without authorization in 2009. He will remain detained while removal proceedings are scheduled on the immigration docket.

Case materials identify a 2019 conviction for drug trafficking in a U.S. court. The entry is recorded as a finalized judgment and reflects participation in the distribution of a controlled substance. No additional convictions were listed in the arrest notice, and no new criminal charges were announced at the time of custody transfer.

Following intake, standard steps include custody review and the setting of hearing dates. Any matters related to the earlier narcotics case proceed in the jurisdiction where they were adjudicated, separate from immigration processing. Morales remains in ICE custody pending removal to Mexico, subject to court scheduling and routine procedures. No additional details were provided in the initial notice.
