Miguel Gomez-Sanchez, Illegally Reentering the US, Maine 2025
A Mexican national has been sentenced to 10 months in prison for illegally reentering the United States, a crime he has committed multiple times before.
Miguel Gomez-Sanchez, 45, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Nancy Torresen in U.S. District Court in Portland, Maine on June 26, 2025.
Gomez-Sanchez pleaded guilty to the crime on the same date. According to court records, he was arrested by the Maine State Police on May 10, 2025, for operating under the influence on I-95.
Agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) determined that Gomez-Sanchez had previously been removed from the U.S. several times, with the most recent removal being in 2022 after he was convicted for illegally reentering the country.
The case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that aims to repel the invasion of illegal immigration and protect communities from violent crime.
Gomez-Sanchez's sentence is a result of his continued disregard for U.S. immigration laws, which has led to multiple removals and convictions.
The investigation was conducted by ICE ERO, and the case is part of the Department of Justice's efforts to combat illegal immigration and protect American communities.
