Last week, 46-year-old illegal alien Manuel Zumba-Mejia of Ecuador was arrested in Ossining, New York, by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents after having previously been deported from the U.S. in September 2011 after a conviction for child abuse in February 2010.
Nearly 14 years ago, Zumba-Mejia was arrested and booked into Westchester County Jail for assaulting his newborn seven-week-old daughter. At the time, ICE agents placed a detainer on Zumba-Mejia, requesting to take over custody when he was released from local custody.
About a year after his arrest, Zumba-Mejia was convicted of reckless assault, causing serious brain injury to a child less than five years old by shaking or impacting the child’s head. He was subsequently sentenced to three years in prison.
After serving his sentence, Zumba-Mejia was deported from the U.S. to Ecuador in September 2011 but he returned to the sanctuary state of New York at an unknown date — likely via the southern border.
Last April, Zumba-Mejia was convicted in Croton-on-Hudson Village Court for drunk driving and released back into the community with a $1,000 fine despite his status as a previously deported illegal alien convicted of child abuse.
ICE agents tracked Zumba-Mejia down and finally arrested him on January 5. He remains in U.S. Marshals Service custody while awaiting trial for illegal re-entry.
