A Mexican national who pleaded guilty in December to illegally reentering the country and being an illegal alien with a gun was sentenced on Wednesday, according to a press release from the Department of Justice.
Israel Ramirez-Jaramillo, 34, was sentenced to two years in federal prison. The release says he was living in Osage Beach.
Ramirez-Jaramillo was arrested by Osage Beach police officers on April 20, 2025, after he fired a shot into the air during an argument with his girlfriend at their apartment, according to a U.S. attorney’s news release.
Officers found the gun inside a toilet that Ramirez-Jaramillo was sitting on, previous reporting says.
He had been removed from the country twice in 2011, previous reporting says.
