 Nine of the investigators learned it was a low-level drug trafficking charge. Ten days in jail, 18 months probation. Federal records show some of his immigration history. Cruz Mendoza was deported on September 10, 2004. He reentered the U.S. without proper authorization ten days later. Other than the drug trafficking charge, ICE is not aware of any other local criminal charges on his record. In Colorado, State Patrol says he was driving a big rig without a commercial driver's license.
