BANGOR – Two men were sentenced this week in U.S. District Court in Bangor in unrelated cases.
A Mexican national who had been living in Jonesport was sentenced Thursday to 35 days in prison or time served for illegal re-entry after deportation.
Emiliano Ponce-Villa, 29, was arrested last month after he and the woman driving the car in which he was a passenger were refused entry to Canada at Houlton, according to court documents.
He is expected to be deported to Mexico again. Ponce-Villa was deported in 1999, according to court documents, but returned to the United States illegally two years later near Tecate, Mexico, across the border from San Diego.
In an unrelated case, a Springfield man was sentenced Friday to one year of probation for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
George H. Cail, 51, waived indictment and pleaded guilty to the charge in January. He was prohibited from possessing guns because of a conviction in the mid-1980s for attempted murder in Virginia, according to court documents.
In arguing for probation, Cail’s attorney, Norman Kominsky of Bangor, told the court in a written motion that since Cail’s release from prison in 1989, he has been a model citizen.
Kominsky also said the gun was used to kill raccoons and foxes that attacked livestock on Cail’s small farm.
