DHS says ICE deported a new group. It says they were sent out between September 29 and October 2. DHS says each one is in a gang or cartel, or may be. It says each one has a criminal record. DHS put out the list on Thursday, October 8. DHS runs ICE. ICE arrests people. It also deports them.

One story starts in Texas. DHS says Jose Balmory Ramirez Rodriguez first came in illegally through Texas. That was in February 2001. He is from El Salvador. DHS says he is in MS-13. It says he was deported on October 2.

DHS says he was ordered out of the country on February 6, 2007. It says he was deported that same month. Then he came back. DHS does not say when or where.

DHS says he was found guilty of first-degree manslaughter. It says he was also found guilty of assault. It lists banned items in prison too. That is DHS's claim.

DHS names more. Some have murder or attempted murder convictions, it says.

Manuel Barahona-Rivera is from Honduras. DHS says he is in MS-13. DHS says he was found guilty of second-degree murder. He was deported on September 30.

Jorge Andres Chirinos is from Mexico. DHS calls him a suspected 116 gang member. DHS says he was found guilty of second-degree murder. He was deported on September 30.

Jose Refugio Rangel Machuca is from Mexico. DHS says he is in a gang called Compton Varrio 70's. DHS says he was found guilty of two counts of attempted murder. He was deported on October 2.

Pedro Ruiz-Cisneros is from Mexico. DHS says he is in the Barrio Azteca gang. DHS says he was found guilty of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It lists illegal re-entry too. DHS gives no more detail. DHS says he was deported five times before. He was deported again on October 2.

DHS lists more people with records for robbery, assault with a gun and burglary. Some are marked "suspected."

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said, "We will never apologize for enforcing the law and keeping American citizens safe."

These are claims from DHS. Here is what the list does not show. It gives no ages. It names no courts. It gives no case numbers. It does not say how DHS knows each one is in a gang. This story lists only guilty findings that DHS names.
