“This is just another example of the U.S. Marshals Service and our Federal, State and Local law enforcement partners working together to protect Americans, by carrying out the Presidents directive to arrest violent offenders who are in the country illegally”, Acting U.S. Marshal Terry Moore said.
Hernandez-Segouia was charged as a Fugitive from Justice, to be extradited back to Maryland. ICE is also investigating Hernandez-Segouia for possible immigration violations and removal proceedings.
