Two Jamaican nationals with violent criminal pasts—including kidnapping and homicide—were deported from the U.S. after years of legal delays, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced.

Nascimento Blair, 44, was removed on February 27, nearly 20 years after his conviction for first-degree kidnapping in New York. Blair overstayed his 2004 visa and was later sentenced to 15 years in prison. Despite a 2008 deportation order, he remained in custody until ICE re-arrested him in 2024.

Nevel Larey Heslop, 67, convicted of a 1991 New Jersey homicide, was also deported. After serving 30 years, ICE detained him in 2021, but document delays prolonged his case until his removal this year.

Both men were held in ICE custody until their deportation. The agency did not disclose further details about their status in Jamaica.
