‘Where’s the Coverage of These Child Predators Walking Your Streets?’: Bovino to Reporters [WATCH]

Border Control Commander Greg Bovino detailed the arrests of three criminal illegal aliens in Minneapolis over a 24-hour period, highlighting what he described as a broader public safety issue and a lack of media attention surrounding serious criminal cases involving illegal aliens in Minnesota.

Bovino said the three individuals had been living freely in Minneapolis despite serious criminal histories and were arrested only within the past day.

“Couple of, a few individuals that I’d like to share with you, individuals that were arrested since yesterday. These three individuals were arrested just since yesterday. Keep in mind now these individuals were walking the streets of Minneapolis with impunity as of yesterday,” Bovino said.

He first identified a Laotian national with a history of sex offenses involving a child.

“We’ve got Hovi Kumaye, a criminal illegal alien from Laos, a registered sex offender convicted of sex offense against a child, including fondling and failure to register as a sex offender. This individual was walking the streets of Minneapolis just yesterday,” Bovino said.

Bovino questioned why cases involving individuals with such criminal backgrounds receive little to no attention from local or state media outlets.

“This individual right here. It’s, it’s very interesting that I haven’t seen this individual or many others like him, reported on very much by the local news media or the state news media. That’s, that’s, that’s interesting,” he said.

Bovino then described the arrest of another individual from Guatemala accused of serious sexual crimes.

“But what let’s, don’t quit there. Let’s, could No, you can’t. Let’s continue here. We’ve got Samuel Aravello Hernandez, a criminal, illegal alien from Guatemala, charged with rape and lewd or lascivious acts with a minor,” Bovino said.

He emphasized the severity of the charges and noted that the individual had also been free prior to his arrest.

“Now think about that for just a second, rape and then on top of that, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor. This individual is walking the streets of Minneapolis with impunity just yesterday,” Bovino said.

Bovino also cited the arrest of a Honduran national with a prior history of violent and substance-related offenses.

“Let’s don’t quit there. Let’s, let’s keep on there. We’ve got Annabelle Gomez, a criminal, illegal alien from Honduras, previously arrested for criminal sexual conduct and domestic assault. Other convictions include disorderly conduct and driving under the influence of liquor, walking the streets as of yesterday,” he said.

According to Bovino, the three arrests represent only a small sample of a much larger enforcement picture in Minnesota.

“These are just three, three that I decided to print out. There’s a whole stack of these,” Bovino said.

He added that the scale of arrests over the past year demonstrates the scope of the issue.

“As a matter of fact, when we look over the past year at the 10,000 that have been arrested here in Minneapolis and Minnesota, that stack is enormous,” Bovino said.
