When you read a headline like this, you probably think it must be satire, or it can’t possibly be true. But it is. Ezequiel Cruz-Rodriguez has a long rap sheet, including convictions for “sex offenses involving a child under 14, sexual battery, illegal possession of a firearm, driving under the influence, and robbery.” His wife had a daycare in their home. ICE arrested the illegal pedophile on August 27, 2025.

Here is the DHS press release:

“Yesterday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested Ezequiel Cruz-Rodriguez, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico and convicted child sex offender with an extensive history of criminal behavior and three prior removals from the U.S. This criminal illegal alien, a documented member of the Logan Heights gang, was living with his wife, a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipient who operates an in-home daycare.

His criminal record includes convictions for sex offenses involving a child under 14, sexual battery, illegal possession of a firearm, driving under the influence, and robbery.

“It is SICKENING to think this pedophile criminal illegal alien was residing inside the home where a daycare operates and hiding out in a sanctuary city,” said a Senior DHS Official. “Thanks to the brave work of our ICE law enforcement officers, this criminal illegal alien, convicted pedophile, and known Logan Heights gang member—will no longer be able to prey on children inside a daycare. Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, sickos like this will not walk free in the U.S.”

Ezequiel Cruz-Rodriguez was first issued a final order of removal by an immigration judge and was removed on Augst 23, 1996. He was removed a second time on October 28, 2003. He was then removed a third time on December 14, 2012.

He illegally re-entered the U.S. at unknown date and time.” DHS

Newsom loves to preach about “protecting Californians”… Meanwhile, a convicted pedo gang member is literally living inside a daycare on his watch. Kids aren’t safe, families aren’t safe — but his sanctuary policies sure are. This isn’t leadership, it’s treason.

There you have it.  Twisted and sick California Governor ‘Greasy’ Gavin Newsom cares more about bashing Trump than protecting the children in his state. That this pedophile was literally living in a daycare is appalling.
