A Brazilian national living in Milford, Massachusetts, has been sentenced for unlawfully reentering the United States after being deported. Wadriam Jose Ferreira Do Carmo, 23, received a sentence of time served—about 79 days in prison—from U.S. District Court Chief Judge Denise J. Casper on August 6, 2025. He is now subject to deportation. Ferreira Do Carmo had pleaded guilty in July 2025 to unlawful reentry of a deported alien.
Ferreira Do Carmo was first arrested by United States Border Patrol on June 2, 2023, after officials determined he had entered the country illegally. He was deported from the United States on July 20, 2023. Authorities allege that he later reentered the country without inspection at an unknown date and location.
On May 6, 2024, immigration authorities discovered that Ferreira Do Carmo was again unlawfully present in the United States following his arrest by local law enforcement in Sherborn on an outstanding warrant. Law enforcement arrested him again at his last known residence in Milford on May 19, 2025.
"United States Attorney Leah B. Foley; Patricia H. Hyde, Field Office Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations in Boston; and Robert Tusino, Chief of the Milford Police Department made the announcement."
"Assistant U.S. Attorney Suzanne Sullivan Jacobus of the Major Crimes Unit prosecuted the case."
