Mexican Citizen Sentenced to Six Months for Illegal Re-entry

ALBANY, NEW YORK – Dario Sanchez-Rosas, age 56, and a citizen of Mexico, was sentenced today to 6 months in prison for illegally re-entering the United States.

The announcement was made by Acting United States Attorney Grant C. Jaquith and Thomas E. Feeley, Director of the Buffalo Field Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO).

Sanchez-Rosas, a citizen of Mexico, admitted that he was removed from the United States to Mexico three times in 2001.  On August 24, 2017, an ICE Officer arrested Sanchez-Rosas in Guilderland, New York.   Sanchez-Rosas did not have permission to re-enter the United States following the 2001 removals.

Senior United States District Judge Norman A. Mordue also ordered Sanchez-Rosas to serve a 1-year term of supervised release should he remain in the United States after completion of the prison term. Sanchez-Rosas will be processed for removal from the United States when he is released from prison.     

This case was investigated by ICE-ERO and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Edward P. Grogan.
