Adios Amigos – Two set for deportation after conviction of weapons charges


web posted March 17, 2008
EDGEFIELD – Two illegal aliens will be greeting family and friends in their native country of Mexico after pleading guilty to weapons charges in General Session Court last week. Jose Luis Rodrigues Resendiz, 27, and Fermin Labra Lopez, 25, plead guilty to possession of illegal weapons from a December 2007 arrest. The arrests came after a Department of Natural Resources Officer notified the Sheriff’s Office he found nearly a dozen Hispanic males shooting automatic weapons at a rural location.

Sheriff’s Deputies arrived at the Beaver Dam Shooting Range on Sunday December 16 and found nine Hispanic men with a vast assortment of weapons including reportedly a fully automatic AK-47 assault rifle.

Recovered at the time of their arrest were two Ruger 10/22 .22 caliber rifles, one Savage .22 caliber rifle, one 12-gauge single shot shotgun, one Mossberg 12-gauge shotgun, one Beretta .22 caliber pistol, one Smith and Wesson .22 caliber pistol, one C2 9mm pistol, one AK-47 rifle, and one .177 caliber air rifle.

Also arrested at the time was Joel Rivera Smith, 26, for public drunk and Arturo Alexander Rivera Guzman, 26, was found to have a warrant for his arrest from immigration officials.

Assistant Solicitor Irvin May said the two men would be picked up by immigration officials and deported. Due to the men being charged with weapons violations it is not believed they will have to face deportation hearings before being sent to their country of origin.

Both men were advised through an interpreter that if they returned to the United States they would face Federal charges.
