Illegally entered individuals were housed by two men from Albuquerque, who admitted their guilt; federal authorities discovered a hiding place.
In a recent development, two men, Isaias Jose and Tomas Gaspar, have pleaded guilty to hostage taking and harboring illegal immigrants in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The U.S. Attorney's Office made this announcement in a news release on Monday.
The incident occurred earlier this year, and it is reported that the men transported over 10 immigrants. However, no further details about the immigrants or the circumstances of their transportation have been provided in the news release.
Isaias Jose and Tomas Gaspar were charged in Albuquerque in 2023. They face up to 10 years in prison for their actions. After serving their prison sentences, the men will be subject to three years of supervised probation.
The spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office is Tessa DuBerry. This is an ongoing legal case with potential implications for immigration and criminal law.
