HARRISBURG – The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Melesio Medina-Torres, age 45, was sentenced to time served of 30 days’ imprisonment and 1 year of supervised release, by United States District Court Judge Jennifer P. Wilson, for illegal reentry of a previously deported alien.

According to United States Attorney John C. Gurganus, Medina-Torres pleaded guilty to having illegally reentered the United States sometime after his last removal in October 2008. He was located in the United States on February 3, 2022, in York County, Pennsylvania, after an arrest for criminal charges which are still pending.  It is expected he will be removed to Mexico at the completion of his sentence.

This matter was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) and was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Joanne M. Sanderson.
