Ocala, Florida – United States Attorney Roger B. Handberg announces that Dimas Obispo Yuman-Parada (62, Guatemala) has pleaded guilty to illegal reentry by a previously deported alien. Yuman-Parada faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison. A sentencing date has not yet been set.
According to court documents, Yuman-Parada was previously removed from the United States on nine prior occasions—1986, 1999, 2004, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2015. Following his removal from the United States in 2015, Yuman-Parada did not receive the consent of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Homeland Security to reapply for admission to the United States. Yuman-Parada was found to be voluntarily back in the United States in October 2024, when he was arrested in the Middle District of Florida on a state charge of domestic battery. Yuman-Parada was previously convicted in the Southern District of Texas of illegal reentry in 2014.
This case was investigated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Sarah Janette Swartzberg.
