U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently announced the arrest of a 20-year-old Guatemalan illegal immigrant, Gener Pop-Cuz, in Maryland's Prince George's County. The arrest took place on February 1 after corrections officials declined to honor an immigration detainer.
According to ICE, Pop was initially stopped by the U.S. Border Patrol near Texas' Rio Grande Valley in November 2017 and was served a notice to appear in court. Subsequently, an immigration judge ordered his removal to Guatemala after he failed to appear for a hearing five years later.
