Police arrest, arraign man deported twice for illegal reentry into U.S.
Man Pleads Guilty to Illegal Reentry into the United States
CONCORD – A man pleaded guilty in federal court in connection to his illegal reentry into the United States after being deported twice, United States Attorney Jane E. Young announces.
Luis Aragon-Lara, 40, pleaded guilty to one count of reentry after deportation.
U.S. District Court Judge Steven J. McAuliffe scheduled sentencing for November 28, 2023. Lara was indicted by a federal grand jury on March 29, 2023.
On October 26, 2022, the Keene Police Department arrested the defendant in connection with the passing of counterfeit currency at retail stores in the area.
A subsequent investigation revealed that the defendant was again illegally in the United States after having been previously deported on or about June 9, 2009, and April 3, 2020.
The charging statute provides a sentence of no greater than 10 years in prison, three years of supervised release, and a fine of $250,000.
Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.
The Keene Police Department and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement led the investigation. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Geoffrey W.R. Ward.
