TYLER – A Mexican national has pleaded guilty in Tyler federal court to failing to register as a sex offender. Concepcion Baldelamar, 49, pleaded guilty to failure to register under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act when he appeared yesterday before U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith K. Guthrie. He now faces up to 10 years in federal prison at sentencing. A sentencing date has not been set.
Federal prosecutors say in April, Baldelamar was found to be in the United States after having been previously deported to Mexico following a conviction in Camp County, Texas for indecency with a child sexual contact. Baldelamar failed to register as a sex offender, as required, upon his illegal re-entry to the United States in March 2009. He was indicted by a federal grand jury in June.
