Dominican National Sentenced for Illegal Reentry After Deportation

BOSTON - A Dominican national was sentenced yesterday in federal court in Boston for illegally reentering the United States after being deported.

Manuel Bienvenido Pimentel-Pimentel, 54, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge George A. O’Toole Jr. to time served, one year of supervised release, and will be subject to deportation. On June 21, 2017, Pimentel-Pimentel pleaded guilty to one count of illegal reentry of a deported alien.

In May 2017, federal agents discovered Pimentel-Pimentel in Billerica and determined that he was illegally present in the United States. He had been previously deported in August 2010.

Acting United States Attorney William D. Weinreb and Matthew J. Etre, Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Boston, made the announcement. Assistant U.S. Attorney David G. Tobin of Weinreb’s Major Crimes Unit prosecuted the case.
