Noel Hernandez Leon, a 50-year-old convicted murderer from Mexico, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on April 17 after being released from a New York prison. He had been sentenced to 20 years to life for first-degree and second-degree murder and robbery in 1996. Following his release, ICE took him into custody in compliance with existing removal orders, and he now awaits deportation back to Mexico while remaining detained at the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility.
Hernandez's case highlights ongoing immigration enforcement efforts targeting individuals convicted of serious crimes. ICE stated that the agency remains focused on removing noncitizens who pose threats to public safety.
