Attorney for the Western District of Arkansas, announced that Eleuterio Flores,
age 34, of Springdale, Arkansas was sentenced yesterday to 262 months in
federal prison followed by twenty-five years of supervised release and ordered

A federal grand jury indicted Flores in March 2017, and he
pled guilty in July 2018.
