(Council Bluffs) An Omaha man was sentenced last week for interstate domestic violence – causing travel of a victim.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa says 28-year-old Ruben Toledo, Jr. was sentenced to 60 months in prison following his guilty plea. According to court documents, on October 23, 2021, Toledo assaulted his then girlfriend at a bar in downtown Omaha then forced her into his car and drove from Omaha, Nebraska to Council Bluffs, Iowa and continued the assault. After his prison sentence, Toledo must serve a three-year term of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.
When he committed this crime, Toledo was on supervised release for a 2015 federal conviction for conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance. The Court also revoked Toledo’s supervised release and sentenced him to 18 months’ imprisonment, to be served consecutively to the 60-month sentence.
