A foreign national from Peru with a history of violent crimes was detained by federal immigration authorities after a Tennessee school official alerted ICE to a child\u2019s warning that her father might kill her mother.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Earlier this month, a young girl in Nashville told school officials she feared Luis Meza-Olivera would kill her mother. The school reported the concern to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and federal agents arrested Meza-Olivera on March 14, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Meza-Olivera, who had recently been released from Trousdale Turner Correctional Center in Hartsville, Tennessee, has an extensive criminal record.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cLuis Meza-Olivera is a monster whose daughter feared he would kill her mother. This criminal alien from Peru should NOT be loose on American streets,\u201d Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis told The Daily Wire. \u201cThanks to a school official who left a tip for ICE, this individual is now in ICE custody and will enter removal proceedings.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Bis added that others should follow the lead of the school official and report tips to ICE.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n According to DHS, Meza-Olivera entered the United States on a B-2 tourist visa in 2002 and became a lawful permanent resident in 2010. He is now subject to removal due to his criminal convictions.<\/p>\n Those convictions include aggravated kidnapping, arson, and aggravated assault in Tennessee, as well as a DUI conviction in California. He also faced charges for attempted first-degree murder, vandalism, and child cruelty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
