SCRANTON - The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that Eddie Damian-Guillen, age 38, of Guatemala, was sentenced on February 13, 2025, to 23 months’ imprisonment by United States District Court Judge Malachy E. Mannion for illegal reentry into the United States by an illegal alien.

According to Acting United States Attorney John C. Gurganus, Damian-Guillen was encountered in the United States at Pike County Correctional Facility in Pennsylvania, having been arrested for driving under the influence of a controlled substance. Damian-Guillen was previously removed from the United States in 2003, 2004, and 2020. His removal in 2020 followed his conviction and sentence for assault in the first degree in Connecticut, in which he ran over a victim with his car following a bar fight. 

Damian-Guillen will be removed from the United States following service of his sentence.

The case was investigated by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Removal Operations. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kyle A. Moreno prosecuted the case.
