BOSTON - A Guatemalan national charged with an immigration crime pleaded guilty and was sentenced yesterday in federal court in Boston.
Victor Deleon, 37, pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful reentry of a deported alien before U.S. Senior District Court Judge Mark L. Wolf, who sentenced Deleon to time served (approximately three months in prison) and two years of supervised release. Deleon will be subject to deportation proceedings.
Deleon was previously deported on Nov. 4, 2011. Law enforcement officers in Boston encountered Deleon in May 2017 and found him to be illegally present in the United States.
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 Kenneth G. Shine of Weinreb’s Major Crimes Unit prosecuted the case.
