Four Dangerous Migrants Wreck Chicago

A new House Judiciary Committee report exposes how four dangerous migrants, released into the U.S. by the Biden-Harris administration, committed multiple crimes, including a brutal assault and robbery on a Chicago train—raising alarms over the administration's inadequate vetting policies.


The House Judiciary Committee has revealed that the Biden-Harris administration released four dangerous migrants into the U.S., who then committed multiple crimes, including a violent robbery and assault on a man in Chicago, Illinois.


In a report released Wednesday by the Committee on the Judiciary and the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement, Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) outlined the policy failures that allowed Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20; Wilker Gutierrez-Sierra, 21; Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22; and Yonnier Guasamucare-Garcia, 18, all Venezuelan nationals, to enter the country. These migrants, living in Chicago’s shelter system, were later arrested for a brutal attack on a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) train. According to Chicago police, the four lured a 49-year-old passenger to the back of the train, viciously beat him, and robbed him of his wallet, money, and cell phone.


A video released by the Chicago Police Department shows the disturbing incident, in which the victim was left unconscious. This incident was part of a troubling surge in crimes involving Venezuelan nationals, as Chicago police have seen an 11,000 percent increase in arrests of Venezuelans since 2021.


The Judiciary Committee's report, highlighted by Breitbart News, criticizes the Biden-Harris administration's lax vetting policies, which it claims have led to the release of dangerous criminals into the country. Jordan's report points to the nearly nonexistent vetting process, in which migrants receive only superficial checks of their U.S. criminal records or any INTERPOL data. No criminal records from their countries of origin are reviewed, especially in cases involving Venezuelans, whose government refuses to share criminal database access with U.S. immigration officials.


One of the attackers, Carreno-Carreno, was apprehended at Eagle Pass, Texas, in July 2023, but was released after claiming fear of torture if deported to Venezuela. Despite refusing to sign his sworn statement, he was given a court date for 2026 and allowed to enter the country with instructions to seek legal assistance in Chicago. Shortly after, Carreno-Carreno was arrested for shoplifting in Chicago before becoming involved in the CTA train attack.


The report underscores the broader issue of insufficient immigration enforcement, leading to crimes across the country, and asserts that every community has been impacted by the ongoing border crisis.
