Nicolas Joaquin Celestino-Gonzalez, 34, Sentenced for Illegal Reentry in Alabama
MOBILE, AL – In a shocking turn of events, a Guatemalan national has been sentenced for illegally reentering the United States after previously being deported. Nicolas Joaquin Celestino-Gonzalez, 34, was arrested by the Saraland Police Department during a traffic stop on March 23, 2025.
According to court documents, Celestino-Gonzalez had previously been removed from the United States in 2018 and 2019. The U.S. Border Patrol was notified of his arrest and determined that he had indeed reentered the country illegally.
At sentencing, Chief United States District Judge Jeffrey U. Beaverstock imposed a time-served sentence and a one-year term of supervised release upon Celestino-Gonzalez’s future release. The defendant had been in custody since his arrest on March 23, 2025.
Celestino-Gonzalez is set to be released from prison in the near future and will be referred to immigration officials for deportation proceedings. Upon his release, he will be ordered to pay $100 in special assessments.
U.S. Attorney Sean P. Costello of the Southern District of Alabama made the announcement, stating that this case is part of a larger effort to combat illegal immigration and protect American communities.
The U.S. Border Patrol and the Saraland Police Department investigated the case, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Justin Roller prosecuting on behalf of the United States. This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative aimed at repelling the invasion of illegal immigration and eliminating cartels and transnational criminal organizations.
The Grimy Times has learned that Celestino-Gonzalez’s sentencing marks a significant blow to those who seek to enter the United States through illicit means. As the nation continues to grapple with the complexities of immigration, this case serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of breaking the law.
