In his statements during the sentencing hearing on Tuesday, D.C. District Judge Trevor McFadden issued a scathing rebuke of Corado.
“You betrayed this country,” McFadden said, according to WUSA9. “You spotted an opportunity to defraud the American people.”
McFadden also professed himself “very dubious” that Corado tried to bring Casa Ruby to El Salvador, noting that the defense offered no evidence that Corado had attempted to establish any nonprofit there.
McFadden also ordered Corado to pay back the SBA in full.
The defense had argued for leniency, requesting that Corado, who identifies as a “transgender woman,” be able to serve his sentence at a local jail or perhaps even at home out of fear that the Trump DOJ will place him in a men’s facility in accordance with his “biological sex”:
DOJ policy has moved to align federal detention practices with directives rejecting gender identity in favor of “biological sex,” resulting in transgender women being transferred into men’s facilities and in efforts to curtail gender-affirming medical care. Attorneys representing transgender women in BOP custody have described these shifts as placing their clients in “incredibly dangerous” situations, effectively emboldening predators and exposing inmates to foreseeable harm. As one longtime advocate explained, the signals sent by these policies can determine “whether a person lives or dies.”
Whether Corado will be housed in a men or women’s facility remains unclear, though he was incarcerated in a men’s jail after his arrest in March 2024. What is clear is that Corado will likely be deported back to El Salvador after his sentence is concluded.
“Your deportation is likely if not certain,” Judge McFadden said.
Corado also faces a civil suit regarding alleged failure to pay Casa Ruby employees. Though that suit was paused pending the criminal proceeding, it may soon resume now that Corado has been convicted.
