He is wanted for allegedly attempting to murder a woman in Venezuela through a violent act resembling Russian roulette, involving physical and verbal assault as well as threatening the victim with a pistol. After the failed attempt, Pargas fled Venezuela and illegally crossed into the United States in August 2022. Despite multiple encounters with U.S. authorities, including Border Patrol and ICE, he was not detained earlier due to prosecutorial discretion. His recent arrest was made possible following a tip-off from Border Patrol. Pargas is now in ICE custody awaiting immigration proceedings and will be repatriated to Venezuela to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/prosecutor-says-sedition-charges-possible-in-capitol-riot-cases-trump-may-be-criminally-culpable\/\" title=\"Prosecutor Says Sedition Charges Possible In Capitol Riot Cases, Trump May Be \u2018Criminally Culpable\u2019\">face charges related<\/a> to his alleged crimes.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>An illegal immigrant who was on the run from Venezuela and entered the United States during the high tide of illegal immigration under the Biden regime has been arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>Raul Enrique Pargas Rodriguez, 31, was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/illegal-immigrant-arrested-connection-womans-nightmarish-nyc-subway-death-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">arrested<\/a> on Aug. 14, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ice.gov\/news\/releases\/ice-arrests-venezuelan-fugitive-wanted-attempting-kill-innocent-woman-during-violent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >dangerous criminal alien allegedly beat<\/a>, demeaned and tortured a young woman in some twisted version of Russian roulette and then fled to the United States when his attempt to murder her fell apart,&rdquo; ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Dallas acting Field Office Director Joshua Johnson said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Video of the incident was posted by the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2025\/08\/22\/us-news\/illegal-migrant-accused-of-russian-roulette-murder-attempt-arrested-by-ice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Post<\/a>.
