U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Boston apprehended an illegally present, 27-year-old Guatemalan national convicted in Massachusetts of three counts of assault and battery on a family member, intimidation, and violation of the Abuse Prevention Act. Officers with ICE Boston arrested Wilber Chinic-Villagran, Jan. 26, in Framingham, Massachusetts.
“Wilber Chinic-Villagran illegally came to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and committed some horrendous crimes,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “We simply will not tolerate such a threat to the residents of our Massachusetts communities. ICE Boston will continue to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing egregious alien offenders from New England.”
U.S. Border Patrol arrested Chinic, July 28, 2020, after he illegally entered the United States near Laredo, Texas. USBP voluntarily returned Chinic to Mexico.
Chinic illegally re-entered the United States on an unknown date, at an unknown location, and without being inspected, admitted or paroled by a U.S. immigration official.
On Feb. 7, 2023, ICE lodged an immigration detainer and a warrant for arrest against Chinic with the Middlesex County House of Corrections in Billerica, Massachusetts, following his arrest by local authorities. However, on Feb. 28, 2023, the MCHOC informed ICE that Framingham District Court released Chinic without honoring the detainer.
ICE lodged another immigration detainer against Chinic, Sept. 22, 2024, with the MCHOC following another apprehension by local authorities.
The Framingham District Court convicted Chinic, Oct. 23, 2024, for two counts of assault and battery on a family/household member, intimidation, and violation of the Abuse Prevention Act. The Court sentenced Chinic to 18 months in prison. The court suspended all but four months of that sentence.
The Framingham District Court convicted Chinic December 24, 2024, for an additional count of assault and battery on a family/household member. The court sentenced Chinic to 18 months in prison. The court suspended all but 90 days of that sentence. Later that day, the MCHOC informed ICE that Framingham District Court released Chinic without honoring their immigration detainer.
Chinic remains in ICE custody.
