Three Mexican citizens who have been illegally living in Northeast Texas pleaded guilty this week in federal court to immigration charges and other crimes, according to U.S. Attorney Rebecca A. Gregory.
Pasqual Tellez-Rosales, 38, who was living in Titus County, pleaded guilty June 19 to being an alien found unlawfully present in the United States after having been deported. He could be sentenced to up two years in prison.
Officials said Tellez had been deported from the United States on two occasions. Agents arrested Tellez-Rosales on Oct. 24 after he was arrested by Titus County sheriff's officials.
On Tuesday, Ofelio Carvajal-Ramirez, 27, who was living in Marshall, pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of an SKS Chinese-made 7.62-caliber assault rifle while being an alien unlawfully in the United States. He was arrested April 30 in Marshall and could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.
On Thursday, Alfonso Hernandez-Tapia, 45, who was living in Longview, pleaded guilty to being an alien found unlawfully present in the United States after having been deported.
Hernandez-Tapia was arrested in December in Gregg County on a state charge of tampering with a government document and was found to be illegally present in the United States after having been deported after a conviction for a felony assault in Dallas County and for terroristic threats and battery in Douglas County, Ga.
He could be sentenced up to 20 years in prison.
