DHS Release Says a Peruvian National in Wichita Pleaded Guilty Under Kansas Law; the Federal Indictment Charges Voting by an Alien and the Court Record Shows No Plea

Sequence only, with date kinds. The defendant is named in the DHS release and the public indictment; an indictment is an allegation.

• DHS release date: DHS says HSI special agents arrested a Peruvian citizen in Wichita over the 2024 general election in Sedgwick County, and that she “ultimately pleaded guilty to disorderly election conduct under Kansas law.” The release names no court, plea date or case number.
• Indictment date (the grand jury’s true-bill date, the same day as the DHS release): a federal indictment in the District of Kansas, Wichita docket, charges her with several counts, the last “VOTING BY AN ALIEN IN A FEDERAL ELECTION.” The U.S. Attorney’s Office for Kansas issued its own release that day naming HSI as the investigating agency (not machine-fetchable; read by hand).
• Docket (RECAP via CourtListener, read when this entry was written): an arrest entry, then an arraignment on all counts, then a jury trial setting. No plea entry and no state case appear.

Open: a separate Kansas state case or plea is neither shown nor ruled out, because the state court record was not searched. Parent work: dhs-election-security-releases-since-sept-1-read-against-their-own-text-2026-10-13.
