Newton Njuguna Githiri/Kenya/Sexual Abuse of a Minor, Burglary

ICE New Orleans arrested Newton Njuguna Githiri, a citizen of Kenya, during enforcement operations in the New Orleans area. Court records confirm a conviction for sexual abuse of a minor as well as a burglary conviction. After serving the criminal sentence connected to those cases, Githiri was taken into ICE custody and booked into immigration detention. He will remain there while removal proceedings are scheduled before an immigration judge.

The immigration file documents both offenses as certified convictions, including sentencing details and supporting court records. The sexual abuse of a minor conviction highlights prior involvement in a serious crime that targeted a vulnerable victim, while the burglary entry reflects additional criminal activity tied to unlawful entry and theft. These judgments now form part of the case record used in immigration court.

During intake, officers confirmed Githiri’s identity using biometric verification, reviewed his immigration history, and compiled the certified records for presentation before the court. He remains detained while his immigration case moves forward on the docket.
