The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), as part of Operation Lone Star (OLS), arrested 22-year-old Vianey Guadalupe Garcia-Velazquez, a criminal illegal immigrant from Mexico, in Webb County.
On February 4, 2025, a Texas Highway Patrol Trooper stopped Garcia-Velazquez for a traffic violation in Laredo. During the stop, authorities discovered she was attempting to flee to Mexico to avoid serving a 10-year probation sentence. With assistance from the Ellis County District Attorney, DPS executed an arrest warrant for a probation violation, and Garcia-Velazquez was booked into the Webb County Jail.
Garcia-Velazquez was previously arrested in Waxahachie in August 2023 and convicted of sexual performance with a child, indecency with a child, and possession of child pornography. She was released from jail in January 2025 and placed on probation by Ellis County.
