Border Patrol rearrests a child molester trying to reenter U.S. illegally

San Diego Border Patrol agents apprehended a male 49-year-old Mexican national in the east county community of Jacumba for illegally entering the United States. However, Border Patrol agents learned the Mexican national was previously convicted of child molestation in the U.S. 

Then felon illegally crossed the US/Mexican border with two other undocumented Mexican nationals. 

According to Border Patrol Agent Scott Simon, “agents transported the group to a local Border Patrol station where processing and further investigation revealed the 49-year-old man had previously been incarcerated after being convicted of continuous sexual abuse of a child in Orange, Calif. in 1996.”

Simon also pointed out that the illegal felon had been previously deported from the U.S. in 2005.
