An illegal migrant will serve five years in jail for assuming a false identity and voting in multiple U.S. elections, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
Angelica Maria Francisco, a 42-year-old Guatemalan national living unlawfully in the country, was sentenced to a 60-month prison sentence for stealing a U.S. citizen’s identity, using that identity to fraudulently obtain several U.S. passports and participating in the 2016 and 2020 elections, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced. Francisco was living in the Russellville, Alabama, area at the time of her arrest in 2024.

“This sentence sends a clear message that any attempts by non-U.S. citizens to vote in the Northern District of Alabama are unacceptable and will result in serious consequences,” U.S. Attorney Prim Escalona said in a prepared statement. “Maintaining the sanctity of the U.S. election system is one of the most important responsibilities of federal law enforcement.
“My office will remain vigilant in carrying out this mission and, to that end, will continue to work with our federal, state, and local partners to investigate and prosecute individuals who seek to undermine our elections,” Escalona continued.
