BOSTON - A Brazilian national was charged today in federal court in Boston with a federal immigration crime.
Adilson Marcos Barbosa, 38, was charged today with one count of illegal reentry into the United States. Barbosa was previously deported on Jan. 12, 2009. On June 7, 2017, Barbosa was arrested in Framingham on unrelated state charges.
Barbosa faces a sentence of no greater than two years in prison, one year of supervised release, a fine of $250,000, and will be subject to deportation upon completion of his sentence. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
Acting United States Attorney William D. Weinreb and Matthew J. Etre, Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Boston, made the announcement today. Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas Soivilien of Weinreb’s Major Crimes Unit is prosecuting this case.
