Two Mexican nationals in the country illegally have been ordered out by a federal judge in South Dakota in the past week, and a third woman has been sent to prison for more than 12 years for working with Mexican cartels to sell illegal drugs in Indian Country.

District Court Judge Camela Theeler sentenced Jose Jimenez, who also goes by the name Jose Lidio Chavez Florez, to two months in prison for illegal re-entry. Theeler also ordered federal officials to remove him.

That followed her sentencing of Celso Diaz-Martinez to also be removed from the country.
