ICE Newark arrests Mexican national convicted for sex crimes against minor

NEWARK, N.J. – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Jorge Luis Sanchez-Luna, 45, a citizen of Mexico and registered sex offender, in Newark Feb. 4.

"Sanchez-Luna is a deviant criminal who has a record of repeat heinous offenses against a minor,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Newark Deputy Field Office Director Arthur J. Wilson Jr. “ERO Newark considers this insidious child abuse a danger to our communities and seeks justice for the traumatized victim."

ICE issued Sanchez-Luna a notice to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge following his arrest.

Sanchez-Luna entered the United States on Oct. 29, 2015, at New York as lawful permanent resident.

The New Jersey Superior Court in Monmouth County found Sanchez-Luna guilty July 12, 2024, of endangering-sexual conduct with child by caretaker. He was sentenced to parole supervision for life and required to register as a sex offender under Megan’s Law.
