A previously deported illegal immigrant from Mexico has been charged with allegedly raped a 10-year-old boy in Mississippi.
Filiberto Gonzalez, 34, was arrested at his area home August 12 by the Pontotoc County Sheriff’s Department for the alleged rape.
“Gonzalez previously snuck into the country at an unknown time and was arrested by Mississippi authorities in 2012 for an assault, which he was convicted of, and a DUI in 2016, according to sources,” the New York Post reported.
“He was then deported by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in 2017 but again snuck back into the country at an unknown time, sources said.”
Earlier this week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested an illegal immigrant who was accused of killing 23 people in Peru.
The noncitizen, 38-year-old Gianfranco Torres-Navarro, was arrested 145 miles northwest of New York City.
Torres-Navarro, the leader of the “Los Killers” gang, entered the United States on May 16, according to the Associated Press.
Col. Franco Moreno, head of Peru’s High Complexity Crime Investigations Division, told the outlet that the illegal immigrant is a “highly dangerous criminal who believed he was untouchable and responsible for 23 murders, including other gang leaders who ended up dead along with their families, all in order to increase his criminal leadership.”
Thomas Brophy, the director of enforcement removal operations for ICE’s Buffalo field office, similarly said that Torres-Navarro posed a “significant threat to our communities, and we won’t allow New York to be a safe haven for dangerous noncitizens.”
