A man who illegally returned to the United States after being deported was sentenced today to almost three months in federal prison.
Orlando Quinonez-Revolorio, age 39, a citizen of Guatemala illegally present in the United States and residing in Waterloo, Iowa, received the prison term after a guilty plea today to one count of illegal reentry into the United States.
At the guilty plea portion of the hearing, Quinonez-Revolorio admitted he had previously been deported from the United States in August 2009 and illegally reentered the United States without the permission of the United States government. In November 2019, Quinonez-Revolorio’s illegal presence in the United States came to the attention of immigration agents following his arrest in Black Hawk County, Iowa, on state criminal charges.
Quinonez-Revolorio was then sentenced in Cedar Rapids by United States District Court Judge C.J. Williams. Quinonez-Revolorio was sentenced to 82 days’ imprisonment. He must also serve a one-year term of supervised release after the prison term. There is no parole in the federal system.
Quinonez-Revolorio is being held in the United States Marshal’s custody until he can be turned over to immigration officials.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daniel C. Tvedt and investigated by Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Enforcement and Removal Operations.
