Three Plead Guilty to Illegal Reentry by a Previously Deported Alien

Ocala, Florida – Today, Alexander Nolasco-Hernandez (41, Honduras), Ruben Marcos-Santiago (30, Mexico), and Celedonio Plancarte-Perez (38, Mexico) pleaded guilty to illegal reentry by a previously deported alien. Each faces a maximum penalty of two years in federal prison. Sentencing dates have not yet been set. United States Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe made the announcement.

According to court documents, Nolasco-Hernandez was previously removed from the United States to Honduras two times. Marcos-Santigo was previously removed from the United States to Mexico three times. Plancarte-Perez was previously removed from the United States to Mexico two times. All three were encountered voluntarily present in the Middle District of Florida in June 2026. 

These cases were investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). They are being prosecuted by Special Assistant United States Attorney Jerry M. Harre.

These cases are part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
