Venezuelan illegal immigrant turned social media star Leonel Moreno is reportedly on the run from authorities after absconding from a government program.
The Venezuelan TikToker who went viral last month after defending illegal immigrant criminals and urging migrants to squat in U.S. homes is now on the run from immigration authorities, according to a new report. Leonel Moreno has claimed that his family, which includes his wife and young daughter, has received $350 a week in government handouts since entering the U.S. illegally. On top of that, he had claimed to be making $1,000 a day as a TikTok influencer.
Moreno allegedly cut off his ankle monitor after receiving border parole and is now listed as an 'absconder' from immigration authorities, the New York Post reported Wednesday, citing Immigration and Customs Enforcement documents. ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Moreno shocked the public last month when he bragged about living on the American taxpayers' dime and called on his TikTok followers to 'unite' behind the suspect in a shooting in New York City's Times Square. Illegal immigration from Venezuela has become increasingly visible as one of the country's most notorious gangs, Tren de Aragua, is also working to establish a foothold on U.S. soil.
The gang has a notable presence in New York City, Florida, Texas, Illinois and Georgia, authorities have warned.
