Wiston Anibal Bennet/Ecuador/Strangulation or Suffocation, Violation of Conditions of Release, Disorderly Conduct

ICE San Antonio removed Wiston Anibal Bennet, a 52-year-old citizen of Ecuador. Court records show convictions for disorderly conduct, strangulation or suffocation in the third degree, and two counts of violating the conditions of his release. After the criminal matters concluded, immigration officers assumed custody and initiated removal procedures under federal law. Bennet was placed on a repatriation itinerary and transported under escort for return to Ecuador.

Strangulation or suffocation in the third degree is charged when a defendant impedes normal breathing or blood circulation by applying pressure to the neck or blocking the mouth or nose. Prosecutors typically substantiate the offense with medical documentation, photographs of injuries, and witness or victim statements describing loss of breath, dizziness, or other symptoms. Sentencing often includes custody, supervised release, and no contact orders tailored to protect the victim.

The two violations of conditions of release reflect noncompliance with court ordered terms such as regular reporting, obeying protective orders, staying away from specified locations, or abstaining from criminal conduct. Courts treat repeated violations as aggravating behavior and may revoke release, impose additional custody, or add stricter supervision requirements. The disorderly conduct conviction documents disruptive or threatening conduct in a public setting, frequently supported by officer observations, video, and civilian witness accounts.

Removal processing for Bennet included biometric identity verification, compilation of certified judgments and sentencing records, and coordination of travel documentation with the Government of Ecuador. Upon arrival overseas, he was transferred to Ecuadorian authorities in accordance with the executed final order of removal.
