ICE Nabs Illegal Migrant Who Beat Pregnant Wife To Death In Front Of 5-Year-Old Son

Deportation officers arrested an illegal migrant convicted of brutally murdering his pregnant wife after local authorities released him back into the community on parole.

🛂Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Massachusetts apprehended Cesar Polanco, a Dominican national convicted in 2007 of beating his wife to death in front of her five-year-old son, according to the Boston Herald. Polanco’s apprehension was one among thousands of arrests the Trump administration made in its first week as it executes its “worst first” agenda to detain and deport criminal illegal migrants.

Polanco called local police in Lawrence, Massachusetts, in October 2006 to inform them that he had killed 25-year-old Judith Guevara, according to his parole documentation. The two had argued about him “going out to drink” and the disagreement eventually turned physical, leading him to murder her in front of her five-year-old son.

Guevara sustained “massive facial injuries,” with the official cause of death determined to be homicide by blunt force trauma and aspiration of blood, according to the report. Authorities further noted that she was roughly one-month pregnant at the time of the murder, and the couple shared a 16-month-old child in addition to the five-year-old whom she had from a previous relationship.

Polanco pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Despite the brutal nature of the murder, he was paroled in December after serving only 17 years of his life sentence.
