On Friday, two illegal aliens were arrested on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship in Miami. Both men were in the United States illegally. Both are accused of molesting a minor.

Warning: The details of the crimes alleged to have been committed by these two are disturbing.

Jose Prudencio Diaz, 36, and Ricardo Daniel Mondragon Leal, 37, are facing several charges, including lewd and lascivious molestation on a child 12-16 years old.

During their court hearings on Saturday, both men were denied bond.

"The defendant, in this case, acting in concert with another defendant, they were both on a cruise," a prosecutor said in court. "This shows that they tried to target a specific minor, and this could be done again."

According to an arrest report, on Thursday, a 14-year-old victim told police he was on board the Royal Caribbean cruise line, Independence of the Seas, and was in the sauna room with Diaz and Leal.

While he was in the sauna room, the victim told police both suspects began to pleasure themselves in front of him, the report said.

At one point, the report said, Diaz and Leal began to touch the victim and forced him to touch them.

Leal then forced the victim to perform a sex act on him and molested the victim, the report said.

Diaz is also accused of having sex without disclosing his HIV infection status.

On Tuesday, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem weighed in on the case:

One of them has HIV. Both have ICE detainers on them. We WILL get these sickos out of our country. https://t.co/LjMLJumBz7

While Homeland Security and Immigrations and Customs Enforcement under President Trump have done a lot of work identifying and removing illegal aliens, this case shows that the damage done by the Biden administration's non-enforcement of the border and immigration law is still harming Americans.

These two, Diaz and Leal, were in the United States illegally. While the story reveals no information as to how or when they entered the United States, the fact that they have ICE detainers indicates they aren't here legally, and the dramatic drop in attempted illegal entries since President Trump took office makes it a safe bet that they entered before then.

Both of them felt confident enough not only to remain in the United States but also to take a cruise ship vacation and molest a young boy while on the ship. Not even one of them being HIV positive in any way deterred them. 

"Sanctuary" city and state officials, remember, want to shield people like these from detention and repatriation.

While said repatriation is the deserved portion for most illegal border-jumpers, in this case, Diaz and Leal should be tried right here, in the United States, and if convicted, imprisoned right here as well. They committed a heinous crime, are now in American custody, and should be tried here. Their actions have scarred a young boy for life, have outraged his family and the laws of the United States, and they should pay for that, right here.
