Read comments (3)Carlos Gomez-Perez, 39, pled guilty to one felony count of unlawful entry into the United States. He appeared before United States District Judge Charles A. Shaw.
On January 5, 2008, Gomez-Perez was arrested in Dunklin County, Missouri for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated. He was later identified by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents as Carlos Gomez-Perez, a Mexican citizen illegally in the United States.
Gomez-Perez was transported to the Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in St. Louis, Missouri where an INS Database check revealed he had a prior immigration history in the name of Carlos Gomez-Perez and that he was born in Mexico.
Upon review of his INS file, ICE learned that Gomez-Perez had previously been deported from the United States to Mexico. On July 2, 2001, he was convicted of attempting to enter the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation in violation of 8 U.S.C. §1325(a)(3), in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, and was sentenced to probation without supervision for a period of five years.
ICE obtained verification from the United States Immigration Records Division that prior to Gomez-Perez's re-entry on or about January 5, 2008, he had not applied to the Attorney General of the United States or to the Secretary of Homeland Security for permission to re-enter the United States.
Gomez-Perez now faces a maximum punishment of two years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine. Sentencing has been set for September 24, 2008.
Hanaway praised the Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement for its work on the case. Assistant United States Attorney Paul W. Hahn handled the prosecution for the government.
Hello! We need the illegal aliens. Who else will do the work? I'm sorry, but our welfare state does nothing but create a lazy workforce. At least the Mexicans who come here believe in the work ethic. Without welfare, we wouldn't need the Mexicans, but ask any farmer in the Bootheel who shows up for work every day to do the work!
Obama already promised he would give the millions of illegal aliens , squatting in this nation AMNESTY? McCain will do likewise to get the vote in November. We must pass the SAVE ACT before this happens. Afterwards will be too late for overburdened taxpayers, who will have to support them. Plus the millions more who will think it's 'open day' from the third world countries.
If it's something to do with enforcing our immigration laws, the special interest lobby will crawl out of the sewer to stop its enactment. Just like the SAVE ACT (H.R.4088) a Federal bill, the laggard Democrats don't want voted into law. Corruption has manifested itself, as house Speaker Nancy Pelosi has used intimidation to stop her clan from endorsing this legislation. Ice has a free Tipline: 1-866-DHS-2ICE for intelligence to locate illegal aliens, or predatory businesses that employ them.
Predatory employers would be arrested, fined and possibly imprisoned and millions of illegal aliens would leave of their own accord. It would give (ICE) more funding and build the US border patrol up to 20.000 more agents in strength, build the fence as originally intended. This national law would also begin to remove criminal aliens from our society. It would give extra teeth to all immigration laws now on the books. Demand the SAVE ACT!
