Alejandro Castellon-Plantillas/Mexico/Conspiracy to Distribute Methamphetamine

Alejandro Castellon-Plantillas, a 51-year-old citizen of Mexico, was arrested by ICE ERO Dallas. Castellon has a criminal history that includes convictions for Conspiracy to Distribute Methamphetamine and Attempting to Manufacture or Possess Controlled Substances. These charges reflect his active participation in the illegal drug trade, a crime that poses significant risks to public safety and community well-being.

The conviction for Conspiracy to Distribute Methamphetamine highlights Castellon’s involvement in the distribution of a highly addictive and dangerous drug, contributing to the spread of methamphetamine abuse and associated criminal activity. His conviction for Attempting to Manufacture or Possess Controlled Substances further underscores his role in illegal drug operations, emphasizing the severity of his actions.

In addition to his criminal convictions, Castellon has a Final Order of Removal dating back to 2012, which makes him subject to enforcement action. Following his arrest, Castellon will remain in ICE custody pending deportation proceedings. As an illegal alien in the U.S., he faces removal to Mexico, where he may encounter additional legal consequences for his criminal behavior.

This case highlights ICE’s immigration enforcement priorities, which focus on individuals who pose a threat to public safety. By removing individuals like Castellon from U.S. communities, ICE works to protect citizens and ensure that those involved in serious criminal activities face accountability for their actions.
