FRAMINGHAM - Local police helped with a federal immigration sting Thursday night and early yesterday morning that will ultimately send six illegal immigrants back to Brazil.
Among those caught up in the sweep was a man who had been tossed out of the country three times before.
Deputy Police Chief Craig Davis said federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials had a warrant to deport one person, but ended up finding two others at the same address.
The agents arrested another two people at another Framingham address, according to police. A sixth person was also arrested, and records show he was handed over to ICE yesterday.
The Framingham department's street crime unit assisted four ICE officials in the operation, Davis said.
Diego Felipe Rosa, 18, Marcilei Caetano, 23, Joelson Gomes, 21, and Genildo Soares Dearaujo, 22, all of 277 Concord St., were arrested on deportation warrants, said ICE spokeswoman Paula Grenier.
"Somebody wanted on a warrant of deportation has had a case before the immigration court and has been ordered removed by a judge," she said. "The next step is removal."
Rosa was taken by the Suffolk County Sheriff's Department to a Boston holding cell, where he will await deportation to Brazil, Grenier confirmed. Caetano and Gomes were found with steroid pills, and Gomes was found with Tenorim pills, as well as other drugs, Framingham police said.
Caetano and Gomes were ordered held on cash bail on charges of possession of illegal drugs, but they will be detained even if their bail is paid because of the ICE warrants, said Officer David Forte, who was with them at Framingham District Court's holding cell yesterday.
Bail for Caetano was set at $2,000 cash, while Gomes's bail was $2,500. Both will have a pre-trial conference on Aug. 8, and will remain in jail for the interim, according to Framingham District Court.
Also arrested at 277 Concord St. was Dallisson Silva, 23, of 1A Mayhew Slip in Milford. He had warrants for his arrest in Northborough for failing to stop, driving under the influence, driving with a suspended license, and speeding; from Natick for a revoked license, a false liquor identification card and identity fraud; and from
Framingham for making threats.
His immigration status was unclear. ICE did not have a warrant for Silva.
On Thursday around 8:19 p.m., police and ICE agents arrested Romulo Silva, 29, of 7 Weld St., Apt. 42, Framingham. Silva, also a Brazilian national, was taken with Rosa to the Boston holding cell and will be deported, Grenier confirmed.
Also arrested at 7 Weld St. was Ronildo DaSilveira, 31, police said. According to Framingham Police records, DaSilveira has been deported three times before.
DaSilveira was taken with the others to Boston, but could face federal prosecution for re-entering the United States illegally after being deported, Grenier said. He could face prison time in the United States, she said.
Dearaujo was taken with DaSilveira, Silva and Rosa to Boston yesterday to be deported, Grenier confirmed.
