In a horrifying case straight out of a nightmare in Pitt County, North Carolina, two Mexican nationals illegally in the United States, described by authorities as “sexual perverts and violent thugs,” have been arrested for a savage attack that included beating, sodomizing, and ripping the fingernails off of their victim during a home invasion.
On February 11, Zaid Mayen-Esteban and Jonathan David Garcia-Larios allegedly burst into the victim’s home, armed with a “sharp-edged weapon,” and restrained him against his will.
The pair viciously assaulted him, sodomizing the victim and even ripping off his fingernails.
The victim was rushed to Eastern Carolina University Medical Center for treatment and, thankfully, survived the ordeal.
Two days later, U.S. Marshals and local law enforcement apprehended the suspects.
They now face charges including assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill or inflict serious injury, burglary, kidnapping, and sodomy.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) swiftly lodged arrest detainers against both individuals to secure them for deportation.
Both men entered the country illegally at unknown times, with Garcia-Larios having been previously removed in 2024 before committing a felony by re-entering unlawfully.
Shockingly, these heinous criminals had no prior criminal history in the U.S., underscoring the need for proactive enforcement against all illegal aliens.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin did not mince words in a statement about the case.
“This is a real-life nightmare. Burglarizing, kidnapping, assaulting, sodomizing, and ripping off the fingernails of an innocent victim are extremely wicked and heinous,” said McLaughlin.
McLaughlin continued, “Zaid Mayen-Esteban and Jonathan David Garcia-Larios should have never been in this country. Prior to this heinous act, these illegal aliens had no criminal record in the U.S. Under Secretary Noem’s leadership we are not waiting for illegal aliens to commit crimes before we target them for arrest and removal. We pray for the continued recovery of this innocent victim.”
DHS added in its press release about the case:
DHS law enforcement is protecting American communities every day from another senseless tragedy like this taking place in another town, to another family. Victims of illegal alien crime may receive support from the Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE) Office by contacting 1-855-488-6423.
