墨西哥籍男子被驱逐后非法再入境美国 在爱荷华州联邦法院认罪:面临最高20年监禁

美国司法部爱荷华州北区检察官办公室宣布,49岁的墨西哥公民 Jesus Diaz-Garcia 于11月13日在位于 Sioux City 的联邦法院认罪,承认一项加重重罪犯被驱逐后非法再入境被查获的罪名。他此前居住在爱荷华州 Storm Lake。
在认罪听证上,Diaz-Garcia 承认,他在2007年8月1日被驱逐到墨西哥之后非法再入境美国。2026年9月12日,他在爱荷华州 Buena Vista 县因公共场合醉酒被捕,并向执法人员提供了多个化名。移民与海关执法局(ICE)人员同日对他进行了讯问,确认他非法居留在美国;他随后被移交移民官员,身份被确认无误,且他从未申请过合法居留许可。
司法部表示,Diaz-Garcia 此前在明尼苏达州 Lyon 县被判两项三级刑事性行为罪,案件涉及未成年受害人,这些定罪构成加重重罪,也是他本次被以加重重罪犯身份起诉的依据。
量刑将在量刑前调查报告完成后由联邦地区法官 Leonard T. Strand 排定。Diaz-Garcia 目前由美国法警局看管,面临最高20年监禁、25万美元罚款,以及刑满后3年的监管释放。此案由助理联邦检察官 Patrick T. Greenwood 起诉,国土安全部下属的移民与海关执法局遣返行动部门负责调查,是司法部全美「夺回美国行动」的一部分,案件编号为 26-CR-04055。
Mexican National Pleads Guilty to Illegal Reentry as an Aggravated Felon in Iowa Federal Court, Faces Up to 20 Years
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Iowa announced that Jesus Diaz-Garcia, 49, a Mexican citizen who had been residing in Storm Lake, Iowa, pleaded guilty on November 13 in federal court in Sioux City to one count of being an aggravated felon found after illegal reentry.
At the plea hearing, Diaz-Garcia admitted that he illegally reentered the United States after being deported to Mexico on August 1, 2007. On September 12, 2026, he was arrested in Buena Vista County, Iowa, for public intoxication and provided multiple aliases to law enforcement. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers interviewed him the same day and determined he was illegally in the United States; he was then transferred to immigration officers, who confirmed his identity and that he had never sought permission to be legally present in the United States.
According to the Justice Department, Diaz-Garcia had previously been convicted in Lyon County, Minnesota, on two counts of criminal sexual conduct in the third degree involving minor victims. Those convictions are aggravated felonies.
Sentencing before U.S. District Court Judge Leonard T. Strand will be set after a presentence report is prepared. Diaz-Garcia remains in the custody of the U.S. Marshal and faces a possible maximum sentence of 20 years' imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, and three years of supervised release following any imprisonment. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick T. Greenwood and was investigated by ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations as part of Operation Take Back America. The case file number is 26-CR-04055.
