Half a dozen illegal aliens indicted for returning to the U.S. after deportation

TOPEKA, KAN. - A federal grand jury in Topeka returned separate indictments charging six previously deported foreign nationals with illegally returning to the United States.

According to court documents, the following defendants were indicted on one count of reentry by a previously removed alien:

• Rodrigo Alan Castro-Sosa, 21, an illegal alien from Mexico,
• Omar Alejandro Hernandez-Hernandez, 31, an illegal alien from Mexico,
• Jorge Luis Landin-Ramirez, 39, an illegal alien from Mexico,
• Joaquin Morales-Diaz, 43, an illegal alien from Guatemala,
• Lesvia M. Lopez-Pena, 31, an illegal alien from Guatemala, and
• Eber Reyes-Duarte, 44, an illegal alien from Honduras.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is investigating all of the cases.

An indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
