Mario Gonzalez/Guatemala/Homicide

Mario Gonzalez, a 47-year-old citizen of Guatemala and an illegal alien in the United States, was deported by Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) New Orleans following his conviction for homicide. Gonzalez had been convicted in a U.S. court of a violent offense resulting in the death of another person. The details of the incident, as documented in court records, included the unlawful killing of a victim under circumstances deemed criminally culpable by the sentencing court. He served a period of incarceration prior to being transferred into ICE custody.

ICE officers confirmed that Gonzalez had no lawful status to remain in the U.S. and was subject to a final order of removal. Upon his release from criminal custody, he was transferred to an ICE detention facility where removal proceedings were initiated. Due to the severity of his conviction, he was considered a priority for enforcement.

After completion of the necessary legal and logistical processes, Gonzalez was deported via coordinated removal flight to Guatemala. His deportation was executed without incident, and he was turned over to Guatemalan authorities upon arrival.

Gonzalez’s removal ensures that a convicted killer with no legal right to remain in the U.S. has been taken out of the country. He is now barred from reentry under federal immigration law and may face additional penalties if he attempts to reenter unlawfully in the future.
