The U.S. Border Patrol has captured more than 50 sex offenders with convictions for sexually abusing children at just one Texas border sector.

Chief Patrol Agent Robert Danley posted a message about the apprehensions to X on April 10.

“Since October 1, 2023, Del Rio Sector Border Patrol agents have apprehended 54 convicted sex offenders after illegally crossing the border and attempting to evade law enforcement. Our agents remain steadfast in safeguarding our border and protecting our communities,” Danley wrote.

Per The Blaze:

The Del Rio Sector includes 245 miles along the Rio Grande and Lake Amistad in Texas. In total, the sector is responsible for 55,063 square miles.

On Tuesday, the Del Rio Sector shared a weekly recap from March 31 through April 6. Border Patrol agents reported 1,956 apprehensions, 472 gotaways, 28 smuggling cases, and four rescues over that period. Agents encountered nine criminals, including five attempted illegal re-entries, three individuals with DUIs, and one claiming false citizenship. Border Patrol agents in the area reported 2,240 illegal immigrant apprehensions and 769 gotaways the previous week.

In the first five months of fiscal year 2024, the sector experienced more than 183,000 illegal migrant encounters. Nearly 99,000 of those encounters were single adults, roughly 75,000 were family units, and approximately 8,700 were unaccompanied children.

It’s nice that the CBP is arresting these people when they can, granted. But the problem is, Joe Biden has not only inviting these people into the U.S. he is setting it up so that millions more can come in without being caught at all. More get in than are caught.
