President Donald J. Trump has taken a strong stance against criminals who threaten the safety and peace of American communities. His administration has made it clear that those who cause harm will be caught and prosecuted.

Recently, Francisco Javier Roman-Bardales, a senior leader of the violent MS-13 gang, was extradited from Mexico to the United States to face serious charges. FBI Director Kash Patel announced that Roman-Bardales, wanted for drug distribution, extortion, and ordering violent acts against civilians and rival gang members, was captured.

Roman-Bardales is the third fugitive from the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted” list to be apprehended under President Trump’s administration. This marks significant progress in the fight against dangerous criminals.

Earlier in 2025, two other high-profile fugitives were captured. On January 30, Arnoldo Jimenez, wanted for first-degree murder, was taken into custody. Just days before, on January 25, Donald Eugene Fields II, suspected of child rape and child sex trafficking, was also arrested.

These arrests reflect the administration’s commitment to protecting American citizens and ensuring justice for victims. President Trump has emphasized that no criminal will be beyond the reach of law enforcement.

The administration vows to continue using all available resources to keep communities safe and dismantle criminal networks threatening public security.

These recent captures demonstrate effective cooperation between U.S. agencies and international partners, highlighting the global effort to combat crime.

The Trump Administration’s firm approach sends a clear message: criminal activity will not be tolerated, and perpetrators will face the full force of the law to uphold safety and order.
