Portuguese Woman Apprehended in Thailand for Overstaying by 1,807 Days

carlocarrasco

Recently in Thailand, a woman from Portugal was arrested after she overstayed in the country by more than one thousand and eight hundred days, according to a news article by VnExpress. The Portuguese’s permission to stay in the country expired on January 11, 2021.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news article of VnExpress. Some parts in boldface…

A Portuguese woman was arrested in Phuket, Thailand, after police discovered she had overstayed her visa by 1,807 days.

The arrest took place on Oct. 13 when immigration officers inspected a restaurant in Koh Kaew, Muang Phuket, as part of a campaign targeting foreign nationals accused of immigration offenses, according to Khaosod English.

When asked for identification, she could not produce her passport, showing officers only a photograph of it on her phone.

Officers then used Thailand’s immigration biometric system to confirm her details, revealing that she had entered Thailand through Suvarnabhumi Airport on March 20, 2020, under a 30-day visa-exemption scheme and later received an extension.

Her permission to stay had expired on Jan 11, 2021. The suspect has been charged with remaining in the country illegally.

Under Thai laws, she faces up to two years in prison, a fine of up to 20,000 baht (US$596), or both for remaining in the country without permission.

According to The Phuket News, an immigration spokesperson said authorities are stepping up checks to find and arrest foreigners staying illegally in the country.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you think there are still a lot of foreigners who overstayed in Thailand? What do you think is the main reason why foreigners overstayed there?

Illegal Alien from the Philippines Arrested by ICE for Secretly Filming Undressed People

Illegal Alien from the Philippines Arrested by ICE for Secretly Filming Undressed People

carlocarrasco

In a press release by Homeland Security, it was announced that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested more of the worst-of-the-worst illegal aliens whose acts were very despicable and disturbing. What caught my attention is the arrest of a Filipino illegal alien over the crime of videotaping undressed persons without consent and already he is in the news.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the news report of the Manila Standard. Some parts in boldface…

A 21-year-old Filipino national illegally residing in the United States was arrested by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after being convicted of two counts of videotaping undressed persons without consent.

In a press release, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Joshua Gabriel Car Hombrebueno was taken into the custody of ICE, following his detention at the William G. Truesdale Alexandria Adult Detention Center in Alexandria, Virginia.

ICE listed Hombrebueno as part of its “Worst of the Worst” list on October 13, alongside four other convicted individuals from El Salvador, Mexico, and Guatemala.

“Yesterday, the brave men and women of ICE arrested pedophiles, sexual predators, domestic assailants, and other public safety threats from our communities,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said.

The department cited Hombrebueno as an “illegal” individual in the US.

A report from the official City of Alexandria, Virginia website states that the 21-year-old’s case goes back to Sept. 20, 2025, when a mother and her three-year-old daughter reported a phone’s camera recording inside the employee bathroom restroom.

“Upon investigation, Alexandria Police Department (APD) detectives recovered a recording depicting multiple victims, including both adults and children, who were unknowingly recorded while using the restroom,” the statement read.

According to the APD, a search of the device pursuant to a search warrant revealed several other victims, including children and adults.

After being identified, the victims expressed their willingness to file charges against Hombrebueno, who was then 20 years old and working at a French bakery.

Following a sex offense investigation involving hidden-camera recordings inside the restaurant’s employee restroom, the APD filed three felony counts and nine misdemeanor counts of unlawful creation of an image of another person.

“Hombrebueno, through legal counsel, turned himself in to Detective Quint earlier today, and the arrest warrant was served without incident,” the statement read.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you support ICE’s efforts on finding and arresting the worst-of-the-worst among the many illegal aliens/immigrants in the United States? Are there many illegal aliens/immigrants living in your local community right now? Do you think Hombrebueno is destined to be deported?

Wanted Chinese National Arrested in Parañaque City Over Human Trafficking Activities Connected with POGO Operations

Wanted Chinese National Arrested in Parañaque City Over Human Trafficking Activities Connected with POGO Operations

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, local law enforcers arrested a Chinese national who is wanted for human trafficking activities connected with illegal Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO) operations, according to a news report by The Daily Tribune.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from The Daily Tribune news report. Some parts in boldface…

Chinese national Huang Mingmin, who is wanted for alleged human trafficking activities linked to illegal Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO) operations in Central Luzon, was arrested by authorities on 9 October 2026.

The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC) said the operation was conducted with the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group–National Capital Region Regional Field Unit (CIDG-NCR-RFU) at the K1 Center Building in Barangay Tambo, Parañaque City.

The PAOCC said sustained surveillance and intelligence-gathering efforts led authorities to the location where Huang was reportedly hiding.

Huang allegedly used multiple aliases, including “Yang Bin,” “Sy Wang” and “A Bao,” to conceal his identity and evade authorities.

According to the PAOCC, Huang had also established a presence in the local business sector, acquiring real properties and fishing vessels on Jomalig Island and maintaining business interests in several establishments in Quezon province, including Mother’s Wonderland and Sea Horizon Resort, where he was reportedly identified as an owner or stockholder.

Further investigation allegedly linked Huang to Chinese nationals who facilitated and supported illegal POGO operations in Bamban, Tarlac, and Porac, Pampanga. Authorities said his alleged connections to individuals involved in the operations warranted further investigation into his role.

Court records also identify “Yang Bin,” one of Huang’s reported aliases, among the persons in control of premises covered by Search Warrant No. 41M-M-2024, issued by the Regional Trial Court Branch 81 in Malolos City, Bulacan, in connection with an alleged violation of Article 267 of the Revised Penal Code, or serious illegal detention.

The alias was also listed in Search Warrant No. 42-M-2024 in connection with an alleged violation of Republic Act No. 9208, as amended by Republic Act No. 10364, or the Expanded Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2012.

Meanwhile, the alias “A Bao” was listed among the accused with arrest warrants in cases arising from joint anti-POGO operations against Lucky South Pampanga 99 and Whirlwind in Porac, Pampanga.

The case involves qualified trafficking in persons under Criminal Case No. R-PSG-25-01737-CR, pending before the Regional Trial Court Branch 157 in Pasig City.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you convinced that Chinese nationals who committed crime and maintained activities with POGOs are currently present in the city? Are there many Chinese nationals living within your local community now? Do you think POGOs are causing scamming and human trafficking in Parañaque?

Store Owner Files Voyeurism Complaint Against Student in Muntinlupa City

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Muntinlupa, the owner of a Korean store filed a complaint of voyeurism against a student who has been caught on video taking upskirt pictures of her, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. More recently, the Mayor of Muntinlupa expressed support for the victim.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A student in Muntinlupa is facing a complaint for voyeurism after being caught on video taking upskirt photos of a Korean store owner.

The victim, a businesswoman from Barangay Putatan, said the incident occurred on Sept. 21 inside her Korean store in Soldiers Hills.

The suspect posed as a customer and, while she was preparing his order, allegedly bumped her from behind. When she turned, she saw him intentionally taking photos of her intimate area.

She pretended not to notice and later reviewed CCTV footage in her office, confirming the act. She then asked a helper to seek assistance from the nearby barangay satellite office.

Barangay personnel responded, and the suspect allegedly admitted to committing the acts several times.

Although the parties were set to meet before the Lupon Tagapamayapa, the victim opted to file a direct complaint. She went to the Muntinlupa police’s Women and Children Protection Unit, which forwarded the case to the city prosecutor’s office.

For additional insight, watch the GMA News video below.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, do you think young adults who possess gadgets should be taught lessons to refrain from committing acts of voyeurism? Did you witness any incidents of voyeurism locally over the past six months?

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

carlocarrasco

There definitely is such a thing as illegally voting in elections in the United States. Since Donald Trump returned as US President in 2025, the government has been unrelenting on pushing back against illegal immigration while restoring the integrity of American elections. That said, an immigrant from the Philippines pleaded guilty to voting illegally in the US Presidential election of 2024 and it happened just months after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under failed US President Joe Biden approved her for the green card, according to a news report by Breitbart.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Breitbart news report. Some parts in boldface…

Last week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that 37-year-old Evelyn Miller of the Philippines, who resided in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to illegal voting.

On Monday, Breitbart News learned that Miller, who was approved for a green card by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in July 2024, registered to vote on October 9, 2024, and illegally voted in the presidential election on November 5, 2024.

“This alien from the Philippines pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election in Pennsylvania,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. “Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of HSI, as well as our partners at the Department of Justice, this alien will soon face justice for her efforts to subvert our elections. American elections are for Americans only.”

In the investigation, Miller confessed to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents that she registered to vote online ahead of the election and voted in person on Election Day.

For additional details from the DOJ regarding Evelyn Miller, click https://www.justice.gov/usao-edpa/pr/lehigh-county-woman-pleads-guilty-illegal-voting

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Does this case of illegal voting convince you that there should be more restrictions to prevent green card holders from voting in any election? What do you think is the ideal punishment for green card holders who actually voted? Are you convinced that Democrats would do anything to allow illegal voting in order to gain power?

Recently in the City of Parañaque, a man armed with an improvised firearm who caused trouble in a local community was arrested by police officers, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A housekeeping worker was arrested after allegedly brandishing an improvised firearm and challenging residents to a fight in Parañaque City on Tuesday evening, Sept. 15.

The suspect, identified only as alias “Julius,” 31, a resident of Barangay Moonwalk, was arrested at around 6:20 p.m. on Saudi Arabia Street, Barangay Don Bosco, Parañaque City.

Police said a concerned citizen alerted officers conducting patrol in the area about a man who was allegedly intoxicated, causing a disturbance, and carrying a homemade firearm known as “sumpak”.

Responding officers reportedly saw Julius walking along the street while holding and brandishing the improvised firearm and shouting at nearby residents.

The officers ordered him several times to put down the weapon, but he allegedly resisted, prompting them to arrest him.

A search of the suspect reportedly yielded a heat-sealed sachet containing about 0.08 grams of suspected shabu, with an estimated price of P544. Also recovered were the improvised firearm and two live ammunition.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that violent crime will get worse in the next six months? Do you consider Parañaque a hot spot for loose firearms and improvised weapons?

Four Chinese Nationals Arrested in Parañaque City over Illegal Drugs

Four Chinese Nationals Arrested in Parañaque City over Illegal Drugs

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, elements of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit and arrested four Chinese nationals over illegal drugs which the authorities confiscated, according to a GMA Network news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

Four Chinese nationals were arrested after the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit in Parañaque City allegedly being used to order and consume illegal drugs.

According to a report by John Consulta on “24 Oras Weekend,” the NBI Cybercrime Division arrested one woman and three men after opening the door of the target unit during an operation.

The agency searched the four rooms of the condominium and recovered high-grade marijuana or kush, from a side table and suspected shabu on the bathroom floor.

Drug paraphernalia and suspected drug residue were also found inside a cabinet in another room.

The NBI said its Cybercrime Division had monitored the suspects allegedly using cyberspace to order various types of illegal drugs, which were then delivered to the condominium disguised among food deliveries and other online orders.

“We monitored individuals through our Cybercrime Division who were using cyberspace to order drugs—various kinds of drugs,” NBI Director Melvin Matibag said.

The four suspects were subjected to drug testing, with two testing positive, according to the NBI. The two who tested positive were subsequently subjected to inquest proceedings for alleged violations of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

Matibag also reminded the suspects that the use of cannabis and methamphetamine is illegal in the Philippines.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that there could be more Chinese nationals who could be doing criminal activities within the city? Do you think Parañaque is absolutely not a drug-free city at all?
