ROCHESTER, N.Y. –U.S. Attorney Michael DiGiacomo announced today
Segundo Juan Maynato-Guaman, a/k/a Segundo Juan Mainato-Guaman, 46, a citizen of
Ecuador, was arrested and charged by criminal complaint with re-entry of a removed alien,
which carries a maximum penalty of two years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicholas M. Testani, who is handling the case, stated that
according to the complaint, on June 25, 2025, Rochester Border Patrol Agents conducted
a traffic stop of the vehicle that Maynato-Guaman was driving at the intersection of
Brockport-Spencerport Road and Washington Street. When asked for citizenship, he
responded, “Ecuador.” Maynato-Guaman voluntarily presented the agent with a New York
State identification card which displayed the name Segundo Mainato-Guaman. When
asked if he was present in the United States illegally, Maynato-Guaman replied, “yes, I do
not have any documents.” A subsequent records check determined that in December 2009,
Maynato-Guaman was physically removed from the United States.
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 (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
Operation Take Back America streamlines efforts and resources from the Department’s
Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETFs) and Project Safe
Neighborhood (PSN).
Maynato-Guaman made an initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Colleen
D. Holland and was detained. The complaint is the result of an investigation by U.S. Border
Patrol, under the direction of Patrol Agent-in-Charge Juan Ramirez, Jr. The fact that a defendant has been charged with a crime is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
