Francisco Javier Garibay Isais, Unlawful Reentry of a Removed Alien, Oklahoma 2025

Published November 10, 2025

TULSA, Okla. – In a federal court case, Francisco Javier Garibay Isais, a 46-year-old Mexican national, was sentenced to 21 months in prison for Unlawful Reentry of a Removed Alien, announced U.S. Attorney Clint Johnson.

On April 10, 2025, Garibay Isais was arrested for driving without a license after leaving a drug stash house. While being booked into jail, records showed that Garibay Isais was unlawfully residing in the United States and had been previously removed in September 2023.

Garibay Isais was removed from the United States on two prior occasions. The first removal was in 1998, when Garibay Isais was convicted in the Western District of Texas for Fraud with Identification Documents. The second removal was in 2015. Garibay Isais was convicted in the District of Colorado for Conspiracy to Distribute and Possess with Intent to Distribute 50 Grams or More of Methamphetamine.

Court records show that law enforcement is unable to tie Garibay Isais to the drug house. However, he previously admitted to supplementing his income through "drug trading."

U.S. District Judge John D. Russell sentenced Garibay Isais to serve 21 months imprisonment, followed by three years of supervised release. Garibay Isais is expected to face removal proceedings following his sentence.

Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney Adam McConney prosecuted the case.

Garibay Isais will remain in custody pending transfer to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
