Oscar Guillen Orellana, Illegal Reentry, Alabama 2025

A shocking case of illegal reentry has come to light in Alabama, as Oscar Guillen Orellana, a 60-year-old Honduran national, was sentenced to 8 months in prison for violating U.S. immigration laws.

According to court documents, Guillen Orellana was arrested by Foley Police Department on March 13, 2025, for domestic violence offenses. At that time, his identity was confirmed and Homeland Security was able to determine that Guillen Orellana had previously been convicted of Armed Robbery in Georgia and Illegal Reentry in both the Northern and Southern Districts of Alabama.

Oscar Guillen Orellana was most recently sentenced on September 21, 2020, to 41 months in prison in the Southern District of Alabama for the crime of Illegal Reentry. He was then deported on November 11, 2022. However, Guillen Orellana was found back in the United States on March 13, 2025, when he was arrested for domestic violence.

Guillen Orellana has been removed from the United States three times and been convicted of Illegal Reentry three times. At sentencing, Chief Judge Beaverstock imposed the 8-month sentence of incarceration and a 3-year term of supervised release to follow his imprisonment. Upon his release from prison, Guillen Orellana is to be referred to immigration officials for deportation proceedings.

Oscar Guillen Orellana also admitted that he had violated the terms of his supervised release for the 2020 conviction and was sentenced to 8 months’ incarceration for that violation, to be served concurrently to the term of incarceration in the pending matter.

The case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the federal government to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.

U.S. Attorney Sean P. Costello of the Southern District of Alabama made the announcement.

The investigation was conducted by the Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and Foley Police Department, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Kacey Chappelear prosecuting the case on behalf of the United States.
