The administration announced the deportation of 162 Haitian illegal aliens on August 20, following the termination of Haiti’s Temporary Protected Status (TPS). The flight included several high-profile criminals, such as Mc Guyverson Jetin, a gang member with a history of lewd and sexual battery convictions. Other notable deportees included Davidson Athis, a gang member with a first-degree assault conviction, and Bermann Desty, who was convicted of unlawful sexual activity with a minor. Secretary Markwayne Mullin stated that the flight featured dangerous criminals, including pedophiles, gang members, and drug traffickers. He noted that while activist judges had attempted to have the status maintained, the Supreme Court reaffirmed that TPS was intended to be temporary. Under the leadership of President Trump, the administration is prioritizing an 'America first' approach to immigration. Haitian nationals who do not utilize the CBP Home app to report their departure are eligible for civil fine forgiveness and a $2,600 exit bonus. Those who fail to take advantage of the offer will be arrested and barred from returning to the user-defined country.
