Mexican National Charged with Illegal Reentry

BOSTON - A Mexican national residing in Hudson, Mass. has been indicted by a federal grand jury for unlawfully reentering the United States after deportation.

Fredi Rios-Nolasco, 34, was charged with one count of unlawful reentry of a deported alien. The defendant was previously charged by criminal complaint on March 18, 2025.

On March 6, 2025, immigration authorities lodged a detainer for Rios-Nolasco after he was arrested and charged in Marlborough District Court for trafficking cocaine. Fingerprints taken during his arrest matched biometrics from his prior removals.

The charge of unlawful reentry of a deported alien provides for a sentence of up to two years in prison, one year of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000. The defendant is subject to deportation upon completion of any sentence imposed. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

United States Attorney Leah B. Foley and Patricia H. Hyde, Field Office Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Enforcement and Removal Operations in Boston made the announcement. Assistant U.S. Attorney Luke A. Goldworm of the Major Crimes Unit is prosecuting the case.

The details contained in the charging documents are allegations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
