Eduardo Romo-Quezada/Mexico/Drug Trafficking

Federal immigration authorities arrested criminal illegal alien Eduardo Romo-Quezada in Rochester, Minnesota, following multiple serious convictions. Romo-Quezada, a Mexican national, was previously convicted of drug trafficking, drug possession, and illegal reentry after removal under federal immigration law.

Court records show Romo-Quezada’s criminal history included trafficking controlled substances, possessing illegal drugs, and unlawfully reentering the United States after a prior deportation order. The illegal reentry charge constitutes an aggravated felony under federal statutes when connected to previous removal proceedings. Local law enforcement in Rochester coordinated with federal immigration officials to transfer Romo-Quezada into custody after his criminal convictions.

Romo-Quezada remains in federal detention while officials review his immigration case and pursue formal removal proceedings.
