An illegal immigrant from El Salvador has been arrested in connection with the tragic murder of a 2-year-old child, adding to a series of disturbing migrant crimes that have recently come to light. The child, identified as Jeremy, was fatally shot while out for a walk with his mother. The incident occurred when two groups engaged in gunfire, with Jeremy caught in the crossfire. His mother survived the ordeal, describing Jeremy as a sweet and quiet boy who loved watching Cocomelon.

Among those arrested for involvement in Jeremy's death is a 25-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador named Nielsen Trejo Granados. Despite repeated efforts by ICE to remove him from the U.S., Trejo Granados remained in the country. The timeline of events leading up to the tragedy is alarming. In November 2022, Trejo Granados was ordered to be deported, but this was not carried out. In March 2023, he was arrested for theft, and an immigration detainer was filed by ICE. However, he was released by the Montgomery County Detention Center.
