Eight people were arrested after the FBI Houston busted a large-scale sex trafficking ring in Texas, that they say is connected to the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.

The investigation – which started in Nashville, found that women from Venezuela crossed into the country and were then forced into prostitution.

According to court documents, some of the victims were separated from their kids in order for the women to be controlled.

Of those arrested, three migrants from Venezuela who officials believe are part of the violent Tren de Aragua. Five others were arrested in Nashville.

In addition, as part of President Trump’s mass deportation plan, agents in Texas arrested multiple illegal migrants, including two more members of Tren de Aragua.

The illegals have been turned over to ICE for deportation.
