Deported Child Rapists Caught at Border
The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol reports that two Honduran nationals with prior convictions for sexually assaulting children in the U.S. have been caught trying to reenter the country. Jose Moreno was apprehended with a group of eight trying to cross the border near Mission, Texas last Friday. Moreno had been deported after serving nine years for raping a child in New York in 2007. A day earlier Jonathan Rosales-Rivera was caught crossing the Texas border. Rivera was deported after being convicted of second-degree sexual assault on a child in Wisconsin. With the current surge at the southern border, which has forced agents from patrolling the border and apprehending illegals to processing and servicing the thousands who are now turning themselves in, some are estimating that more than half of those crossing the southern border are not being caught or identified. How many are convicted criminals like Moreno and Rivera?
