Illegal Alien from Mexico Pleads Guilty to Illegally Reentering the Country

BANGOR, Maine: A Mexican man pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Bangor to illegally reentering the country after a prior removal.

According to court records, on September 10, 2026, a U.S. Border Patrol agent was traveling in Franklin County when he observed a cargo van operating with temporary license plates. The agent followed the van to a fast-food restaurant in Farmington and spoke with the occupants. Ramon Delgado-Guerrero, 29, was a passenger in the vehicle. Delgado-Guerrero is a citizen of Mexico and had previously been removed from the United States on two separate occasions in 2017.

Delgado-Guerrero faces up to two years in prison and a $250,000 fine. He will be sentenced after the completion of a presentence investigation report by the U.S. Probation Office. A federal district judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

The U.S. Border Patrol investigated the case.

Operation Take Back America: This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice 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.
