Julio Cesar Mendoza Gomez/Mexico/Aggravated Sexual Assault

ICE Harlingen deported Julio Cesar Mendoza Gomez, 34, a citizen of Mexico. According to transfer documentation, Mexican authorities have an active want for aggravated sexual assault. U.S. records further show he violated the conditions of his admission, triggering immigration enforcement. After a final order of removal issued, officers completed biometric identity verification, confirmed his immigration history, and assembled certified records needed for repatriation.

Removal logistics included securing travel authorization with the Government of Mexico, conducting preflight security and medical screenings, and maintaining chain of custody from staging through departure. Escort officers transported Mendoza Gomez from the Harlingen area on a scheduled itinerary and, upon arrival, transferred him to Mexican authorities without incident.

The aggravated sexual assault matter is a foreign criminal case; adjudication will occur under Mexican jurisdiction. The United States removal addressed only his immigration status and custody. Certified removal paperwork and the foreign want documents have been added to the permanent immigration file and will be referenced in any future admissibility determinations should he seek lawful entry at a later date.
