“Our agents have thwarted another convicted felon and MS-13 gang member from further entry into the United States,” said Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Felix Chavez. “The apprehension of this serious offender is a result of our agents’ readiness and their commitment to protecting our communities.”
On Jan. 9, Border Patrol agents arrested a Mexican national soon after his illegal entry into the United States, south of Brackettville. During processing at the Brackettville Station, agents discovered that Miguel Dominguez, 40, had been convicted of aggravated sexual battery in Memphis, Tennessee, on June 8, 2005, and was sentenced to serve 10 years in prison. Agents also discovered he was a confirmed MS-13 gang member. Records checks show that Dominguez was deported to Mexico in 2013.
Dominguez faces a charge of 8 USC § 1326 – illegal reentry after deportation – which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. His prior order of removal will be reinstated.
