Jhony Garay-Veliz/Ecuador/Conspiracy to Possess with Intent to Distribute

ICE New Orleans deported Jhony Garay-Veliz, a citizen of Ecuador. Court records confirm a conviction for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances, for which he was sentenced to 135 months in prison. After completing his lengthy sentence, Garay-Veliz was transferred into ICE custody under a final order of removal.

Deportation officers conducted biometric verification, reviewed certified judgment and sentencing records, and coordinated with Ecuadorian authorities to secure travel authorization. Preflight removal procedures included medical clearance, security screening, and escort assignments to ensure custody was maintained from staging to arrival.

Garay-Veliz was placed on a scheduled removal flight and transferred without incident to Ecuadorian officials upon arrival. His conviction and removal have been permanently entered into his immigration record, ensuring that these details will be reviewed in any future admissibility determinations. With his deportation executed, U.S. custody concluded, and jurisdiction now rests with Ecuador.
