Esteban Trejo Moreno/Mexico/Aggravated Assault

Mexican national Esteban Trejo Moreno, listed in Minnesota Department of Corrections records as inmate number 262788, was released from the Minnesota Correctional Facility–Rush City on May 5, 2025. State records identify him as having served a sentence for aggravated assault involving a firearm, a conviction tied to a violent offense committed in Minnesota. His release from Rush City placed him on the radar of federal authorities monitoring violent offenders with gun-related convictions for potential immigration follow-up.

Following his Rush City release, Trejo Moreno was taken into custody in Rush City, Minnesota, as part of a coordinated enforcement effort aimed at criminal illegal aliens with serious assault and weapons histories. He now faces federal immigration proceedings that could result in his removal from the United States after completion of any remaining confinement linked to his aggravated assault with a gun conviction.
