Guillermo Oropeza-Mendoza/Mexico/Possession of Fraudulent Immigration Documents, Intimidation, Assault

by G. George | August 24, 2025

ICE San Antonio arrested Guillermo Oropeza-Mendoza, a forty seven year old citizen of Mexico who is unlawfully present in the United States. According to court records, he holds felony convictions for possession of fraudulent immigration documents and intimidation, along with two separate assault convictions. Officers coordinated with local authorities and took him into custody following the conclusion of his criminal matters.

Possession of fraudulent immigration documents is charged when a person knowingly holds or uses counterfeit, altered, or unlawfully obtained papers such as resident cards, work permits, or visas. Prosecutors typically prove the offense through forensic examination of the document, serial number checks, biometric comparisons, and testimony showing that the document was presented to obtain benefits or avoid detection. The felony classification reflects the security risks created when forged papers are used to bypass lawful identity and admission systems.

The intimidation conviction stems from threatening or coercive conduct intended to impede, influence, or retaliate against another person. Proof often includes victim statements, corroborating witnesses, and recordings or messages that capture the threats. The two assault convictions document separate incidents of unlawful physical force; evidence in those cases commonly consists of medical records, photographs of injuries, and officer observations memorialized in reports and body worn camera footage.

After arrest, Oropeza-Mendoza was booked into immigration detention and placed in removal proceedings before an immigration judge. Standard steps include biometric identity verification, compilation of certified judgment and sentencing records, and coordination of any required travel documentation with the receiving government. He will remain in custody while the administrative case moves forward.
