Tucson judge gives serial illegal border crosser 7-year term

A "serial border-crosser" was sentenced to more than seven years in prison for illegal reentry to the United States after deportation, officials said.
Joaquin Valdez-Gastelum, of Sonora, Mexico, pleaded guilty late last year to violating terms of his supervise release in a separate drug trafficking case by reentering the U.S. illegally, said Robert Sherwood, an Arizona U.S. District Attorney spokesman.
Valdez-Gastelum was found in Nogales, Arizona, on Sept. 30 after having been deported following an aggravated felony conviction of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, Sherwood said in a news release.
The 38-year-old had previously been convicted of illegal entry three times, dating back to 1994, Sherwood said.
U.S. District Judge David Bury sentenced Valdez-Gastelum Friday to a year in prison for violating supervised release, and 6 years and 5 months for illegal reentry, according to the release.
