BOSTON — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Boston apprehended an illegally present, previously removed Honduran when officers with ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston apprehended Juan Alberto Rodezno-Marin in Boston Jan. 22. Rodezno, 39, was charged in Massachusetts with indecent assault and battery on person over 14, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, masked armed robbery and assault to rape.
“Mr. Rodezno will have his day in court, but he stands accused of some horrific crimes,” said acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde of ICE ERO Boston. “Not only did he repeatedly break U.S. immigration laws, but he apparently presents a substantial threat to the residents of Massachusetts. ICE ERO Boston cannot tolerate illegal criminal threats to our neighborhoods. We will continue our mission to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing the illegal criminal elements from our New England communities.”
U.S. Border Patrol arrested Rodezno Oct. 10, 2007, after he illegally entered the United States without inspection or admission by an immigration officer. The Border Patrol issued Rodezno an order of expedited removal and ERO Harlingen removed Rodezno to Honduras Nov. 22, 2007.
Immigration officials twice arrested Rodezno for illegally re-entering the U.S. between Aug. 10, 2008, and Dec. 8, 2009, and removed him after each occasion.
Officers from ICE ERO Boston encountered Rodezno Dec. 20, 2022, at the Middlesex House of Correction and issued an immigration detainer against Rodezno later that day.
The Middlesex Superior Court in Woburn, Massachusetts, arraigned Rodezno March 9, 2023, for the offenses of indecent assault and battery on a person over 14, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, masked armed robbery, and assault to rape.
Middlesex Superior Court ignored the ICE detainer and released Rodezno back into the community Dec. 4, 2024.
Officers from ERO Boston arrested Rodezno Jan. 22 in Boston and he remains in ERO custody.
