Carlos Vega-Ramirez/Mexico/Sexual Indecency with a Minor

Carlos Vega-Ramirez, a 38-year-old Mexican national, is a criminal alien and twice-deported child predator arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on August 22 during a focused operation in southeast Texas. Authorities report that he had unlawfully reentered the United States following two prior deportations, making him a repeat immigration violator.

According to publicly available information, Vega-Ramirez has been convicted of sexual indecency with a minor and enticement of a minor for indecent purposes, qualifying him as a child sex offender and high-priority enforcement target. He has also been convicted of driving while intoxicated, fleeing police, forgery, and illegal reentry, reflecting a sustained pattern of criminal behavior and disregard for U.S. law.

Officials highlighted his arrest as part of a broader effort to locate and apprehend serious non-citizen offenders during the Houston-area operation, which emphasized removing individuals deemed among the most dangerous.
