Overview
- Multiple Mexican outlets report that Lyle is scheduled to complete his five-year sentence on December 29, 2026 after credit for time served and good behavior moved his release forward.
- He was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in October 2022 and sentenced in February 2023 to five years behind bars and eight years of probation for a 2019 Miami traffic altercation that left Juan Ricardo Hernández dead.
- Under U.S. practice prison officials notify Immigration and Customs Enforcement before a release and ICE agents can take custody and move a person to an immigration detention center to begin removal proceedings.
- Lawyers quoted in the coverage say Lyle can either contest removal, which can keep him detained for months while hearings proceed, or accept voluntary deportation to speed his return to Mexico.
- There is no public, definitive resolution of his immigration case and his legal fate after December 29 will determine whether he reunites with family, faces prolonged detention, or is deported.
