U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported Baltazar Pantoja Calderon, a 43-year-old eight-time removed criminal alien convicted of kidnapping and several other criminal offenses in the U.S., to his home country of Mexico March 13.
Pantoja has illegally entered the U.S. at least eight times.
Each time he was caught by U.S. immigration officials and voluntarily departed to Mexico May 27, 1999; and was deported on July 1, 2008; Sept. 1, 2010; Oct. 29, 2014; March 18, 2015; May 3, 2017; and Feb. 2, 2018.
Pantoja has also been convicted of numerous criminal offenses while in the U.S. illegally including kidnapping May 12, 2010; driving while intoxicated May 29, 2008; illegal entry July 3, 2018; and resisting arrest March 10, 2025.
“The complete lack of respect for our nation’s system of laws that this criminal alien has displayed over the past quarter of a century has in recent years, unfortunately, become more commonplace,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston Field Office Director Bret Bradford. “The law enforcement community in South Texas is united in our determination to restore sovereignty over our southern border and has banded together to remove these dangerous criminal aliens from our country to restore law and order in our communities.”

Deport, lock him up in jail! He will be back in a month
But,,, But,,, They’re just here to make a better life and pick vegetables.
Get these criminal scum wetbacks out of Liberty and Montgomery counties. Still waiting for a roundup in King’s Colony and surrounding areas in New Caney.
Racist scum
Who’s gonna pick my veggies now. Oh no, what will we do.
Pick them yourself tubby
He should have had to stand trial here instead of being deported again. He probably is back here again because as long as we deport them they will just keep coming back.
Rich and vibrant culture, of course…
If ICE wants more action all they have to do is come to Liberty and make a sweep through the neighbor hood north of Beaumont Ave. There are plenty.
