Press Release
Four indicted for illegally reentering the United States
For Immediate Release
U.S. Attorney's Office, Northern District of Ohio
Four people were charged with illegally reentering the United States, said U.S. Attorney Justin E. Herdman.
Indicted are Santos Adelmo Escobar-Garcia, 44, of Honduras; Juan Carlos Galindo-Escobar, 48, of Guatemala; Bernabe Vazquez-Bamaca, 33, of Mexico, and Santos Guevara- Batres, 26, of El Salvador.
The cases were investigated by U.S. States Border Patrol and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after reviewing factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense and the characteristics of the violation. In all cases, the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and, in most cases, it will be less than the maximum.
An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. The defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
