Proceedings will begin soon to deport two Mexican nationals who were sentenced to 12 months and one day in federal prison for conspiring to give $1.2 million to bribe U.S. District Judge Sam Sparks of Austin.

Because Francisco Agustin Colorado Cebado and Ramon Segura Flores have already been imprisoned since Sept. 5, 2013, both have already served the one-year prison sentence for the crime, conspiracy to bribe a public official, for which they pleaded guilty. The maximum sentence would have been five years in prison.
