News From the Border: 2 arrested criminals will face deportation

News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

2 arrested criminals will face deportation

Two illegal immigrants with criminal convictions in Georgia have been arrested separately in southern Arizona after re-entering the United States. Both face deportation proceedings.

The Border Patrol says Tucson sector agents arrested the two Monday.

Tomas Reyes Lopez, apprehended near Sasabe southwest of Tucson, was deported in January after serving prison time for convictions in March 2001 of negligent homicide, failure to yield and driving without a license in Appling County, Ga.

Francisco Ortiz Falcon, caught near Amado, had been convicted of a "peeping Tom" felony and of writing bad checks in two other Georgia counties.

Both would be subject to prison if caught entering the U.S. again.
