Pablo David Cajti-Tzoy, Immigration Violations, Texas 2022
In a shocking case of immigration violations, Pablo David Cajti-Tzoy, a Guatemalan national, pleaded guilty to one count of failure to notify of an address change and one count of failure to carry his alien registration on his person.
The crime took place in Temple, Texas, where Cajti-Tzoy was encountered by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Waco Fugitive Operations Team on June 21. Immigration records indicated Cajti-Tzoy entered the U.S. through Houston in October 2019 as a Temporary Agricultural Worker (non-immigrant H-2A) and was issued a Form I-94 with authorization to remain in the U.S. until January 3, 2020.
Cajti-Tzoy was not in possession of his I-94 when he was encountered by ICE officers. He also failed to notify the Attorney General in writing of his new address and address change within 10 days.
As a result, Cajti-Tzoy faced two misdemeanor charges, each carrying a maximum penalty of 30 days in federal prison. U.S. Magistrate Judge Derek T. Gilliland sentenced Cajti-Tzoy to time-served.
This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that aims to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations, and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
The investigation was led by the ICE Waco Fugitive Operations Team, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Frazier prosecuting the case. U.S. Attorney Justin R. Simmons for the Western District of Texas made the announcement.
