Martinez-Barillas, 30, was picked up in Clay County, Indiana, and was allowed to roam the country after police in Maryland freed him from prison without obeying an ICE detainer in 2023.
The illegal alien had been charged with first-degree murder and firearm possession in Maryland.
ICE reported that a second illegal alien with a criminal record was in the same automobile as Martinez-Barillas when officials came across the pair in Indiana.
Accompanying Martinez-Barillas was El Salvador national Jose Salvador Gonzalez-Campos, who was also identified as a member of the dangerous MS-13 criminal gang.
Gonzalez-Campos had been sentenced to a year in a federal prison for illegal firearm possession back in 2018.
