A 23-year-old undocumented immigrant has been arrested in Texas after posting a threat on TikTok calling for the murder of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. The suspect, Eduardo Aguilar, allegedly offered $10,000 to anyone who was willing to take out an ICE agent.
According to federal authorities, Aguilar posted a video on TikTok last October that included two skull emojis, which are commonly used to represent death in Spanish-speaking countries. In the video, he threatened to kill 10 ICE agents in Dallas and offered $10,000 to each person who would carry out the killing.
Aguilar was arrested by law enforcement in Texas after a tip from the public led them to his location. At the time of his arrest, authorities found a loaded 9mm handgun in Aguilar's vehicle, which is a felony offense in the US.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) says that Aguilar entered the country illegally in 2018 as an unaccompanied minor and was ordered to be deported by an immigration judge two years later. The DHS says that the threat made on TikTok could have cost American lives and that agents are facing increased threats due to their work enforcing immigration laws.
Aguilar has a history of violating liquor laws and other crimes in the US, according to the DHS. He is now facing federal charges and could face up to five years in prison if convicted.

, posting threats on tiktok like its no big deal?! $10k to kill ice agents? thats insane 
! i dont think anyone should be rewarded for trying to harm people, especially not in the us where we value our law enforcement officers so much 
. but at the same time, i get that eduardo aguilar is an undocumented immigrant who made a mistake by posting something he shouldn't have 
. 5 yrs in prison sounds like a good punishment imo 
. anyway, its super disheartening to hear about the threats and the fact that agents are facing increased danger 
. hope they get the support they need 
and now he's facing 5 yrs in prison 
i feel bad for the ice agents who have to deal with this kinda threat every day 
but also gotta wonder how many ppl are like eduardo out there thinking they can get away with stuff like this 
anyway, glad law enforcement was able to catch him 
. What's next, offering a reward for someone to take out a cop or a firefighter? It's just not right, you know? I remember when we used to have community events and stuff like that, where people actually came together instead of tearing each other apart online 
. I don't know what the answer is, but we need to find a way to bring people together instead of driving them further apart 
.
! I mean, $10k for someone to take out an ICE agent? That's just crazy talk 
. I feel bad for the agents who have to deal with that kinda threat on the daily grind 
. But at the same time, dude got caught red-handed (literally 
) and now he's gonna face the consequences 
. I mean, someone's gotta keep our country safe, right? 
what if someone actually tries to do it? it's not just about the money, it's about the senseless violence and harm that could come to innocent people 
... what's wrong with people these days?! 
. We need to be more responsible with our words and actions online 
.
. I mean, $10k to take out an ICE agent? That's just crazy talk! The fact that he even posted it on TikTok is wild - does he not know how easily those videos get shared and can end up in the wrong hands? 
That's it? No one's saying he's a model citizen... but is this really worth 5 years in prison? 
that's some crazy money! 
it's like he was begging for it. But seriously, can't we all just get along? 
. and can we talk about the dude who reported him? they're like, true hero 
. We need more people like Aguilar speaking truth to power, even if it means using some pretty extreme language 
. It's time for us to start seeing things from their perspective and calling out the bull when we see it 
. Aguilar may have made some mistakes, but at least he's not just sitting back and taking it 
, I don't know how they do it but their gear looks so cool! Anyway, back to this guy Aguilar... think he's crazy for posting that threat, like, who does that? And $10k for each person who takes out an ICE agent is just wild 
.
