HSI's top five. Number one, in Texas, HSI Corpus Christi special agents with the Homeland Security Task Force secured a 25-year federal sentence for a firearms trafficker who directed straw purchasers from behind bars to acquire highcaliber bell-fed rifles. Those weapons were used as currency for cocaine and fentanyl and were intended for CJNG cartel leaders in Mexico to fuel an ongoing cartel war.
Number two, in Oregon, HSI Portland, special agents working with ero and the US attorney's office arrested a previously convicted sex offender after an HSI investigation found the individual had been released into the community despite two prior convictions for sex offenses involving minors. Number three, in Florida, HSI Fort Meyer special agents working with the US Marshall Service and Cape Coral Police help track down and arrest four fugitives tied to a large-scale Cape Coral fraud ring facing state reco fraud and theft charges. Number four.
In Kentucky, HSI Lexington special agents led an investigation with Lexington police that secured major federal sentences against two traffickers tied to fentanel distribution, firearms, and overdose deaths in the city, including near the University of Kentucky. One offender received 170 months in federal prison, while another received 155 months consecutive to a prior 96-month sentence, sending a clear message that HSI is taking the fight directly to traffickers poisoning our communities. And finally, number five, in South Carolina, HSI Columbia special agents led an investigation with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division that secured a 25-year federal sentence and lifetime supervision for the ring leader of a sex trafficking organization that exploited multiple minor victims.
From stopping cartel weapons and deadly fentanyl to taking predators, fugitives, fraudsters, and traffickers off the streets, HSI special agents are delivering results that protect American communities. For more information, follow us on social media or visit us at hsi.gov.
