According to immigration officials, one compromised operation in Aurora, Colorado, enabled members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua to escape before federal agents arrived.
Leaks are likely ‘coming from inside’
A separate ICE memo detailing an upcoming raid in Los Angeles was recently leaked to the Los Angeles Times, which cited anonymous sources in its report.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem shared the article on X, accusing the FBI of corruption and suggesting the leaker could be from the bureau. Homan echoed that sentiment during an appearance on Fox News’ Hannity show, saying the investigation is making progress.
“We think it’s coming from inside,” Homan said. “The first leak in Aurora is under investigation. We think we’ve identified that person. As for the California leak, Secretary Noem is correct—some of the information we’re receiving tends to lead toward the FBI.”
Leaker could face jail time
Homan confirmed he spoke with the deputy attorney general, who assured him that a criminal investigation is underway.
“They’ve promised that not only will this person lose their job and pension, but they’re going to go to jail,” he said.
Homan warns leaks put officers at risk
Beyond undermining ICE operations, Homan warned that leaks pose a serious danger to law enforcement.
“It’s only a matter of time before we walk into a place where there’s a bad guy who doesn’t care—he’s going to be sitting and waiting for the officer to show up and ambush him,” he said. “This is not a game.”
