Julio Esteban Batista-Castillo, 24, was charged with kidnapping, malicious destruction of property, breaking and entering and home invasion, in addition to several assault and battery charges. He was arrested in Boston by ICE agents on Nov. 18.
According to an ICE press release published on Tuesday, the suspect illegally entered the United States in January 2023.
In a statement, Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia Hyde said that Batista-Castillo was taken into ICE custody after an immigration detainer was not honored by the Roxbury District Court. The court had arraigned him before his ICE arrest.
