Mexican citizen deported from U.S. 8 times is busted in Hawaii
A citizen of Mexico who has been removed for immigration law violations eight times pleaded guilty to a ninth federal offense Tuesday after he was arrested driving drunk without a license on Hawaii island in August.
Consepcion Padilla- Arellano, 41, aka “Jezreel Rivera,” entered a plea of guilty to a single charge of reentry of removed alien before U.S. Magistrate Judge Wes Reber Porter. He was deported Nov. 4, 2020, near Laredo, Texas.
Officials with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and Padilla-Arellano’s attorney, Assistant Federal Public Defender Maximilian J. Mizono, did not immediately reply to Honolulu Star-Advertiser requests for comment.
