Trio of MS-13 migrants busted in Nassau County in joint ICE operation face 14 attempted murder charges

Three MS-13 migrants who allegedly terrorized Nassau County were busted last week in a joint operation between ICE, local police and the FBI — and charged with a spate of violent crimes including 14 counts of attempted murder and 49 counts of assault, The Post has learned.

The Aug. 8 arrests of the baby-faced gangbangers — two of whom sources say crossed into the US illegally during the Biden administration — was confirmed by Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, who vowed to keep supporting the feds in their immigration crackdown.

“As a result of a joint operation between the Nassau County Police Department and ICE, three alleged dangerous gang members charged with murder and other serious crimes were apprehended and are now incarcerated pending trial or deportation, making us an even safer county and region,” Blakeman told The Post in a statement.

“We will continue work with our federal and local partners to ensure we remain the safest county in America.”

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged immigration detainers against all three gang members, sources said.

None of the migrants taken into police custody last Friday are older than 21, and between the three of them, they face the attempted murder and assault raps — along with 7 weapon possession charges, according to the sources.

Two of the three gang members entered the US illegally during the Biden administration.

In a departure from the Big Apple’s sanctuary city policies — which tie the hands of federal immigration authorities seeking to detain and deport illegal immigrants who commit crimes — Nassau County has pledged to work with ICE to get violent criminal migrants off the streets.

Since February, Nassau County has detained more than 1,400 illegal immigrants for ICE at Nassau County Correctional Center in partnership with the feds, even setting aside 50 cells in the facility specifically to hold migrants awaiting deportation, Blakeman announced earlier this year.

“America is no longer a dumping ground for foreign criminals and gang members,” acting ICE Director Todd M. Lyons told The Post.

“ICE will continue to find, arrest and remove MS-13 and other terrorists who come here to wreak havoc on communities and destroy this nation.”

The rap sheets of the three Central American migrants netted during the Aug. 8 joint operation read like a laundry list of violent criminal acts.

Ellias Wilfredo Serrano Bonilla, 21, a criminal alien from El Salvador, illegally entered the US sometime prior to December, 2016, sources said.

On Jan. 8, 2020, Nassau County cops arrested and charged him with first-degree assault and first-degree gang assault.

Then during the Aug. 8 bust, he was slapped with dozens of additional charges including eight counts of attempted murder, first-degree assault with intent to cause serious injury with a weapon and first-degree gang assault causing serious injury, as well as a host of other robberies and assaults, according to sources.

Also arrested was Edras Daniel Velasquez Giron, 19, an illegal alien from Honduras who illegally entered the US before June, 2022, the sources said.

Fifteen months later, in September, 2023, a New York immigration judge ordered him removed to Honduras in absentia.

After the joint operation, he was charged with six accounts of attempted murder, first-degree assault with intent to cause serious injury with a weapon, first-degree gang assault with intent to cause serious injury with a weapon and an additional 18 counts of assault and robberies, sources said.

The third criminal migrant snagged during the joint operation was Jeffrey Bladimir Valladares Archaga, 20, from Honduras, who sources said entered the US unlawfully near Calexico, Calif. in 2022.

On July 17, he was arrested in Nassau County and charged with fourth-degree possession of a firearm, third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle and driving without a license.

Valladares Archaga is not facing any attempted murder or assault charges.

So far, similar joint efforts between federal immigration authorities and local law enforcement have seen over 1,600 criminal aliens taken off the streets of Long Island, an ICE spokesperson told The Post.
