BOSTON – A Dominican man, unlawfully residing in Lawrence, Mass., was indicted by a federal grand jury for unlawfully reentering the United States after deportation.
Eddy Antonio Perdomo, 31, is charged with one count of unlawful reentry of a deported alien, a crime that carries a sentence of up to two years in prison, one year of supervised release and a $250,000 fine.
According to the charging documents, Perdomo was deported from the United States to the Dominican Republic on Oct. 3, 2023. It is alleged that sometime after his October 2023 removal, Perdomo illegally reentered the United States without permission.
The charge of illegal reentry provides for a sentence of up to two years in prison, one year of supervised release and a $250,000 fine. The defendant is subject to deportation upon completion of any sentence imposed. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.
United States Attorney Leah B. Foley; Patricia H. Hyde, Field Office Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations in Boston; and Chief of the Lawrence Police Department made the announcement. Assistant U.S. Attorney Suzanne Sullivan Jacobus of the Major Crimes Unit prosecuted the case.
The details contained in the charging documents are allegations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
Perdomo’s next court date is not specified in the press release.
