Tuesday, 05 August 2008

LOUISVILLE, KY - AUG 01 - Narciscon Hernandez-Reyes a/k/a Andres Lopez-Mayo, 26, Louisville, Kentucky, pled guilty to charges of illegal re-entry after deportation, alien in possession of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm and possession of cocaine, U.S. Attorney David L. Huber of the Western District of Kentucky announced.

Hernandez-Reyes, a citizen of Mexico, pled guilty and admitted that on March 13, 2008, he was present at his residence located at 1538 Taylor Avenue, Louisville, Kentucky, when U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and ICE agents executed a federal search warrant. During the search of the residence, a gun and powder cocaine were found in Hernandez-Reyes’s room. A records check revealed that Hernandez-Reyes has a felony conviction for Theft of Property and Breaking or Entering out of Arkansas in 2002. Hernandez-Reyes was arrested and then taken into federal custody for the booking process.

Upon being booked into jail, a check of Hernandez-Reyes’s fingerprints indicated that he was a citizen of Mexico who had previously been removed from the United States on August 19, 2003. When federal agents interviewed Hernandez-Reyes he admitted that he had been deported in 2003 and further claimed that he had re-entered the United States illegally sometime in 2006 near the port of entry at Naco, Arizona. A review of immigration records revealed that Hernandez-Reyes had not received permission to re-enter the United States from the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security since he was deported in 2003.

The maximum potential penalties are 41 years imprisonment, a $750,000.00 fine, and supervised release for a period of at least 3 years. Hernandez-Reyes will be subject to deportation to Mexico upon serving his sentence in this case.

The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daniel P. Kinnicutt, and it was investigated by the DEA and the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Hernandez-Reyes is scheduled to be sentenced before Charles R. Simpson III, United States District Judge on October 8, 2008, at 1:30 p.m., in Louisville, Kentucky.
