Armando Mendoza, a 39-year-old Mexican native, is facing denaturalization after pleading guilty to receipt of sexually explicit images of minors. Beginning in 2009, Mendoza knowingly received such images. During his 2011 naturalization application and interview, he falsely claimed under oath that he had never committed a crime for which he was not arrested. He naturalized later that year. In 2013, Mendoza pled guilty to receipt of child sexual abuse material. The Department of Justice alleges he committed crimes involving moral turpitude during the period required to demonstrate good moral character and willfully misrepresented material facts during naturalization proceedings.
