The New York Post had more details to add to the story, check out what they had to share:
Border Patrol agents took down ten convicted sex offenders who crossed into the United States illegally over a seven-day period ending Monday, officials announced Wednesday.
All ten arrests took place in the Del Rio sector, an area covering south-central Texas. Eight of those arrested are Mexican nationals, while the other two are originally from Honduras.
The perps’ convictions include charges of lewd and lascivious acts with a child, sexual assault of a child under 14, sexual assault of a child, sexual assault, sexual conduct with a person under 13, and statutory rape.
“The majority of these criminals were apprehended in our sector’s most remote areas, attempting to avoid detection by crossing far from populated areas,” Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Austin L. Skero II said in a statement. “Our agents’ sign cutting and tracking skills were instrumental in capturing these criminals, preventing them from infiltrating our communities.”
According to US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), agents in the Del Rio sector have arrested 95 convicted sex offenders since Oct. 1, a whopping 3,166 percent increase over the same timeframe 12 months ago.

Fox News got the scoop too:
Border Patrol agents in the Del Rio Sector in Texas arrested 10 convicted sex offenders in a single week as they tried to get into the U.S. illegally — the latest batch of criminals nabbed by agents at the border.
The arrests were made between May 17 and24, Border Patrol said in a statement, with nationals from Honduras and Mexico among those arrested.
The convictions of those apprehended include forcible sexual assault, sexual assault of a child under 14, sexual conduct with a person under 13, statutory rape, second-degree sexual assault of a child, and lewd and lascivious acts with a child.
“The majority of these criminals were apprehended in our sector’s most remote areas, attempting to avoid detection by crossing far from populated areas,” Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Austin Skero said in a statement. “Our agents’ sign cutting and tracking skills were instrumental in capturing these criminals, preventing them from infiltrating our communities.”
The arrests come days after Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced that agents near Abrams, Texas, arrested a Salvadoran man who had been arrested in Washington for the rape of a child and later convicted and sentenced to 34 months in prison and community service.
Hats off to the border patrol agents in Texas, these are the real hidden heroes of America.
