Eight illegal immigrants from Venezuela have been arrested for allegedly orchestrating a multi-state sex trafficking ring tied to the notorious Tren de Aragua gang, according to federal prosecutors.
The defendants allegedly lured women from South America to the US with promises of jobs and a better life — only to force them into prostitution to pay off huge debts from getting them into the country, according to a federal indictment for the eight arrested in Tennessee and Texas.
“Once the victims were here and far from home … they were bullied, intimidated and threatened to have sex with total strangers,” Robert McGuire, the acting United States attorney for the Middle District of Tennessee, told reporters at a press conference on Tuesday.
Some of the women even had their kids and immigration documents taken to make sure they complied, the feds said.
The trafficking ring was spearheaded by a mother and son — Yilibeth Del Carmen Rivero-Del Caldera and Klebier Daniel Mota Rivero, according to the indictment.
The pair had the main connection to Tren de Aragua (TdA) — using it to threaten the victims if they refused to pay off their debts through sex work, the indictment alleges.
All eight were in the US illegally, officials said. Kleiber was also charged with having a Glock 9mm pistol “knowing he was an alien illegally and unlawfully” in the US, the indictments said.
Caldera’s two other adult sons were also among the eight arrested, with five picked up in Tennessee and three others in Texas.

Welcome to Gitmo AH.
Yilibeth Del Carmen Rivero-Del Caldera
The Democrats think they’re being humane by allowing unbridled immigration. This is one of the consequences.
This is the only exception I’m in favor of right now. Victims of trafficking should get sanctuary in the USA.
I’m in favor of capital punishment for these kinds of criminals
A must.
Democrats hate women.
That’s the only thing I can surmise given their support of these evil raping murdering dregs of third-world tribal societies.
Just brutally pimping unfortunate foreign women that Americans are too lazy to.

“Eddie! I want to talk to yoooooo! I’m an American woman now, I want what’s coming to me! What have you done for me lately?............HALF!!!!”
Excellent point, thank you.
Even though Biden was not in charge, this is his legacy.
Also Kamala’s.
