Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo, a convicted felon with a voluntary manslaughter charge on his record, was removed from the United States in 2011 — then illegally re-entered and has been on the run ever since.
A man convicted of voluntary manslaughter was deported from the United States on June 29, 2011. He came back anyway — illegally, uninspected, and undetected. His name is Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo, and right now, he is on ICE’s official Most Wanted list, still at large somewhere inside America.

WHAT HAPPENED
Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo is not a first-time offender. He is not a case of a desperate migrant caught in a broken system. He is a convicted felon — found guilty of voluntary manslaughter, one of the most serious violent crimes on the books — who was formally removed from the United States in June 2011 after serving out that conviction.
That should have been the end of it. It wasn’t. At some point after his deportation, Rodriguez-Jacobo crossed back into the United States illegally — without inspection, without going through any port of entry, and without any legal right to be on American soil. ICE’s own records confirm he re-entered at an “unknown place and date,” which tells you everything about the state of our border enforcement during the years he slipped back through.
Despite “numerous attempts” by ICE agents to locate him, Rodriguez-Jacobo remains at large as of the agency’s most recent update. He is listed as a priority target on ICE’s Most Wanted fugitives page — reserved for the most dangerous and elusive criminal aliens in the country. His offense category? Illegal reentry following a violent felony conviction. The system removed him once. The system failed to keep him out. And now American communities are paying the price.
ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations division is actively pursuing this case. But the longer Rodriguez-Jacobo stays hidden, the longer a convicted killer walks free among the American public — protected, in part, by a patchwork of sanctuary policies and a border that was left wide open for years.

WHY THIS MATTERS / WHAT THEY’RE NOT TELLING YOU
The mainstream media will not cover Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo. They won’t say his name. They won’t put his face on their front pages. Because his case destroys the narrative they’ve spent years building — that the border “isn’t that bad,” that deportees “just want a better life,” and that enforcement is somehow cruel. Rodriguez-Jacobo was given the deportation order his crime warranted. He ignored it. He came back. And the open-border policies that dominated the last administration gave him the gap to do exactly that.
This is what OPEN BORDERS actually produces. Not just undocumented workers — convicted killers, felony re-entrants, fugitives from justice hiding in American cities. ICE has tried “numerous times” to find this man. He’s still out there. And every politician who voted to defund ICE, block border wall funding, or expand sanctuary city protections bears direct responsibility for cases like this. THEY built the conditions that let Rodriguez-Jacobo disappear.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Rodriguez-Jacobo is one name on a list that runs far too long. ICE’s Most Wanted page is filled with deported felons who came back — murderers, predators, violent repeat offenders who walked through a border our government deliberately left unguarded. Under the Trump administration, ICE has made historic strides: over 605,000 arrests in 2025 alone, 70% of those individuals charged or convicted of crimes. But undoing years of willful neglect takes time. Every day Rodriguez-Jacobo stays hidden is a day the system is still failing.
While you were going to work, paying your taxes, and trusting your government to protect you — a convicted killer was being let back into this country through a border that wasn’t secure. That’s not a talking point. That’s the documented record.

OUR TAKE
Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo should not be in America. He was convicted of taking a human life, removed from the country, and chose to come back illegally. The people responsible for the border conditions that made that return possible have never been held accountable. The media that ignores stories like this has blood on its hands too. ICE is doing the work — hunting him down despite obstruction, sanctuary policies, and years of institutional neglect. We stand with every agent in the field pursuing this case.
Rodriguez-Jacobo will be found. And when he is, the same politicians who left the door open should be forced to answer for it — on the record, in public, with no escape.
Share this if you believe convicted killers should NEVER be allowed back in this country. Should Luis Rodriguez-Jacobo face additional federal charges for illegal reentry on top of his deportation? Yes or no? 🇺🇸🔥
