A Honduran national, Oscar Guillen Orellana, 60, was sentenced to eight months in prison for illegally reentering the United States after previously being deported. The sentencing took place in Mobile, Alabama.
Court documents show that Guillen Orellana was arrested by the Foley Police Department on March 13, 2025, for domestic violence offenses. Authorities confirmed his identity and determined that he had prior convictions for armed robbery in Georgia and illegal reentry in both the Northern and Southern Districts of Alabama. His most recent sentence before this case was issued on September 21, 2020, when he received a 41-month prison term for illegal reentry in the Southern District of Alabama. He was deported on November 11, 2022.
Guillen Orellana has been removed from the United States three times and has three convictions for illegal reentry. After his latest arrest in March 2025 for domestic violence charges, it was found that he had returned to the country without authorization.
Chief Judge Beaverstock imposed an eight-month sentence of incarceration and ordered a three-year term of supervised release following imprisonment. Upon completion of his prison term, Guillen Orellana will be referred to immigration officials for deportation proceedings. He was also ordered to pay $100 in special assessments.
Additionally, Guillen Orellana admitted to violating terms of supervised release related to his 2020 conviction and received another eight-month incarceration sentence for this violation; both sentences will be served concurrently.
U.S. Attorney Sean P. Costello of the Southern District of Alabama announced the sentencing. The investigation involved multiple agencies including Homeland Security Investigations, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the Foley Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kacey Chappelear prosecuted the case.
This prosecution is part of Operation Take Back America, which aims to use all available resources from the Department of Justice to address illegal immigration and target criminal organizations as well as violent crime perpetrators.
