Man gets prison time for illegally re-entering U.S.

A violent, drug-dealing, once-deported illegal immigrant who was arrested in July at a popular day laborer hangout in Silver Spring was sentenced this week to seven years in prison for re-entering the country illegally, federal prosecutors said.

Since 2003, Miguel Montez-Flores, 36, of Mexico, has been doling out aliases to authorities and dodging federal officials as he was arrested three times for alleged drunken driving around Louisville, Ky. He tried to give Montgomery County police a pseudonym, but officers didn’t buy it, according to a plea agreement.
