NEW: DHS has re-added to ICE’s most wanted list a Mexican illegal alien who has been on the run for 20 years after he killed 20 y/o Blake Zieto in a hit & run crash in Louisiana in 2006. The Biden admin removed Jesus Marlo’s-Chacón’s name from the ICE most wanted list. The Trump admin has now re-added him.

:“Jesus Maltos-Chacon is the Mexican criminal illegal alien who killed 20-year-old Blake Zieto in Baton Rouge, LA,’ said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “Maltos-Chacon hit Blake head-on, driving his truck on the wrong side of the road, and trapped Blake’s motorcycle underneath the truck as it went up in flames. Jesus Maltos-Chacon has been on the run ever since. After being taken off the ICE Most Wanted list by Biden, he is back on the Most Wanted list. We will find Maltos-Chacon. Not only because justice demands it, but because the Zieto family deserves peace. If you have any information on this alien’s whereabouts, call our tip line at 866-347-2423.”
Back story, per DHS:
“On November 18, 2006, Blake Zieto, 20, was driving his motorcycle to meet a friend in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Jesus Maltos-Chacon, from the opposite lane, swerved his truck into Blake's lane and struck his motorcycle.
Zieto’s motorcycle became trapped under the truck as the truck burst into flames. Jesus Maltos-Chacon exited the vehicle and fled the scene. Blake Zieto succumbed to his injuries on his ambulance ride to the hospital. His body was so badly burned that this family was forced to hold a closed casket funeral.
Maltos-Chacon has multiple prior arrests in the United States, including for a DWI in Texas and in East Baton Rouge Parish for operating a vehicle without lawful presence. His earliest recorded arrest was on February 25, 1998, for assault with no disposition in Dallas, Texas, indicating that he has been in the United States illegally for nearly thirty years.
State, local, and federal law enforcement have been searching for Maltos-Chacon for the twenty years since Blake’s death. Law enforcement has distributed multiple wanted fliers and received numerous tips on Chacon’s whereabouts locating him throughout Louisiana, Texas, and even as far north as Minnesota. The most recent potential tip on Maltos-Chacon' location was in November of 2025, with a report to the Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Tip Line concerning an illegal alien living in Denham Springs, Louisiana.
Blake’s parents, Judy and Tony, have spent nearly twenty years of seeking justice and being pushed aside by open borders politicians and sanctuary politicians. That changed under President Trump.”
