ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has introduced a new feature on its “Worst of the Worst” website, wow.dhs.gov, which allows users to search for information about criminal illegal aliens removed from their specific state. The updated site enables users to access state-specific data by entering the state's name in the URL, such as wow.dhs.gov/Minnesota.

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin stated, “President Trump and Secretary Noem understand that when it comes to illegal alien crime, every state is a border state. That’s why DHS is making it even easier for users to search by state on our new 'Worst of the Worst' website, offering the American people even greater transparency to see the criminals law enforcement are removing from their community. The Trump administration is removing murderers, pedophiles, terrorists, and other criminals from communities across the country. Our message is clear: we will protect the American people no matter where they live.”

The new feature covers all 50 states and Washington, D.C., providing quick access to relevant information through direct URLs like wow.dhs.gov/dc.

The “Worst of the Worst” website was launched in 2025 and has received positive feedback since its debut. It has undergone several updates that have expanded its database to include 20,000 featured criminals. This figure represents only a portion of those arrested and deported over the past year.
