A federal grand jury in Phoenix has returned a three-count indictment against two Chandler residents, Jose Sarinana and Abran Villa, for assaulting, resisting and impeding federal officers who were helping ICE and ERO with immigration enforcement.
The indictment alleges that on June 1, 2025, FBI agents were assisting ICE/ERO with immigration enforcement operations. As part of those operations, FBI and ICE/ERO pulled over Villa’s vehicle and arrested the passenger, who was illegally present in the United States. After the passenger was arrested, the 40-year-old Villa returned to the passenger’s residence and told the 42-year-old Sariana, at which point both men got into their vehicles and returned to the scene of the arrest.
As one of the FBI agents involved in the immigration enforcement action was leaving the scene, Sarinana followed the agent and made several attempts to run the agent off the road with his vehicle. The agent called for backup and multiple FBI agents responded to the scene to stop Sarinana.
While agents were pursuing Sarinana, Villa used his truck to block one of their cars, revving his engine as he obstructed the agent’s exit from a parking lot. Villa eventually left after the agent called for assistance.
After agents successfully pulled Sarinana over and detained him, Villa appeared again, driving up to the group at a high rate of speed in his truck. Villa stopped shortly before reaching the agents, but pointed the truck directly at them and revved his engine. Villa eventually complied with commands from the FBI agents after several of them unholstered their firearms, and he was taken into custody without further incident.
A conviction for Assaulting, Resisting, and Impeding Federal Officers carries a maximum penalty of up to 20 years in prison, up to five years supervised release, and a $250,000 fine.
This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations.
Start building more prisons for all these domestic terrorists!
This is the problem with USA not enforcing federal immigration and customs law. Shame on the Biden Administration for misleading millions. This does not exempt them from the responsibility of their own actions.
They haven’t discovered yet that there’s a new administration that isn’t going to put up with criminals. It’s about time. Hopefully, others with similar intent will recognize the consequences and not do the crime. Punishment works. It puts all other “would be’s” on notice. The smart ones make the right choice.
Deport all illegals
In what world do people believe they can behave that way without major consequences?
In Biden’s world.
All parents should teach their kids to grow up like these two a____les…NOT!! Someone will probably chime in and say ‘but your honor they are fine upstanding, hardworking individuals.’ What a disgrace.
