A 23-year-old Salvadoran illegal immigrant who was caught and released at the southern border in June has now been arrested in relation to the murder of his girlfriend in June.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed to Fox News Digital that Gerber Luis Sanchez-Centeno is in the country illegally and had been previously detained.
"Sanchez-Centeno is an unlawfully present 23-year-old Salvadoran national," ICE said in a statement. "U.S. Border Patrol apprehended Sanchez June 2 after he unlawfully entered the United States near Santa Teresa, New Mexico. Later that day, ERO El Paso placed Sanchez into the Alternatives to Detention program with a GPS monitor. ERO El Paso terminated Sanchez from ATD Aug. 8, as he absconded from the program."

ERO Baltimore lodged an immigration detainer against Sanchez Sept 23, 2024 with the Montgomery County Detention Center," the statement continued.
