JUST IN: CBP Commissioner Says Illegal Alien Arrested in California Pot Farm Raid is a Child Kidnapper and Molester but Trump Wants “Work Program” for Illegal Farmers
A Customs and Border Protection (CBP) commissioner revealed on Saturday that one of the illegal aliens arrested at a California pot farm on Thursday is a child predator, disproving leftists’ claims that they were all innocent farm workers.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, federal immigration officers conducting raids Thursday at two California marijuana farms in Ventura County were attacked by protesters and had to fend off a Democratic Congressman who tried to crash a police line. National Guard troops and vehicles were also at the raids.
Approximately 200 illegal aliens were detained and taken into custody by agents.
The left was outraged that ICE was raiding a farm, claiming that they’re just innocent hard-working illegal aliens, not criminals.
However, several illegal alien children were also discovered working at the locations, bringing the farms under investigation for child labor violations.
Additionally, as revealed by CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott on Saturday, “one of the farmers they arrested was previously “sentenced to 7 yrs for kidnapping & attempted rape, w/ a prior conviction for attempted child molestation.”
Scott posted on X,
This illegal alien was apprehended at the CA marijuana facility. Turns out he had been sentenced to 7 yrs for kidnapping & attempted rape, w/ a prior conviction for attempted child molestation.
And this felon was working at the same farm as 10 kids – one being 14 yrs old.

Still, the Trump Administration has announced plans to give de facto amnesty to illegal alien farm workersby “streamlining” work visas for illegal aliens on farms, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer said on Tuesday.
President Trump said, “There’s no amnesty. What we’re doing is we’re getting rid of criminals, but we are doing a work program.”
Despite how it’s worded, it appears they are planning to give visas to illegal aliens, who are here in violation of U.S. federal law and are felons. That kind of sounds like amnesty. And some of them, as discovered at the California marijuana farm, are violent criminals or child predators.
