Mexican National Sentenced To Three Years

{West Virginia}...Mexican national Jose Guadelupe Reyes-Infante, 48, will spend three years in federal prison for re-entering the country illegally. He was deported after serving his sentence for a 1983 conviction in Texas after he attempted to kill a police officer. In November 1988, he was arrested again on breaking and entering charges and deported after his jail time. Reyes-Infante resurfaced in Wyoming County where Sheriff deputies arrested him on burglary charges. Department of Homeland Security officials discovered Reyes-Infante had been incarcerated and had been deported from the U.S. on different occasions. Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Irene C. Berger sentenced Reyes-Infante to three years in prison on charges that he illegally re-entered the country. At the conclusion of his sentence, Reyes will be subject to deportation proceedings by immigration authorities.
