BRIDGEPORT -- An illegal alien admitted Monday he took a 14-year-old Norwalk girl to Maryland where, he said, they had consensual sex.

Walter Aguilar, 26, formerly of Norwalk, an illegal alien from Guatemala pleaded guilty to violating the Mann Act during proceedings in federal court.

A preliminary calculation of Aguilar's federal sentencing guidelines recommends that U.S. District Judge Janet C. Hall sentence him to between 46 and 57 months in prison. Sentencing is set for October.

Additionally, Assistant

U.S. Attorney Krishna Patel said Aguilar will be deported to Guatemala after sentencing. She is recommending a lifetime ban for his return to the U.S.

Aguilar has been in custody since his Feb. 11 arrest by the FBI in Hyattsville, Md.

Four days earlier the girl told her parents she was going to a birthday party. When she did not come home, they reported her missing to Norwalk police. The police then contacted the FBI.

Aguilar and the girl apparently knew each other.

He is represented by Assistant U.S. Public Defender Paul Thomas.
