SINGAPORE – Child sex offender Amos Yee was deported from the US on March 19, the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency confirmed with The Straits Times.
According to a State Courts portal, Yee is expected to be charged in Singapore on March 20 with offences under the Enlistment Act.
The 27-year-old was last housed at the Broadview Service Staging Area in Illinois on March 18, with the facility located a 17-minute drive from Chicago O’Hare International Airport.

As at March 19, his record was expunged from the ICE website, and a representative confirmed to ST by phone on the morning of March 20 that Yee “was removed from the US” on March 19, Singapore time.
He has been in ICE’s custody since November 2025, barely a week after he was released from an American prison.
According to a post on a blog maintained by his supporters, Yee signed his deportation papers on Feb 12, with his deportation likely to take place any time in the subsequent nine months.
In recent days, he had been transferred multiple times to various ICE facilities.
While he was initially held at the Dodge Detention Facility in Wisconsin immediately after being detained by ICE, he was later transferred to the Miami Correctional Facility in Indiana.
