U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers apprehended a convicted
child molester who was attempting to enter the U.S. by intermingling
with the legitimate traveling public.
On June 12, at about 5:30 p.m., CBP officers were screening traffic
coming from Mexico, when the officers became suspicious of a man who was
operating a motorcycle. The man, who was accompanied by a woman, was
identified as 38-year-old Jesus Castillo Esquer, a registered sex
offender for child molestation.
Further investigation revealed that the man had confirmed warrants for
indecency with a child and sexual contact, with a $100,000 bond, and
aggravated sexual assault with a child, with a $50,000 bond. Felony
indictments are pending upon the subjectâs arrival in Montgomery County,
Texas. The woman accompanying the man was identified as his 52-year-old
wife. The woman had no pending issues and was allowed to proceed.
âOur endeavor here at the border carries a lot of responsibility,â said
Michael Humphries, area port director for the Douglas-Naco ports of
entry. âWe truly are the nationâs first line of defense. This is just
one example of the many threats that face our nation. As guardians of
our nation, Customs and Border Protection remains committed in
maintaining a high state of vigilance.â
CBP officers apprehended the man and released him to the custody of the
Douglas Police Department, pending extradition to Montgomery County.
A criminal complaint is simply the method by which a person is charged
with criminal activity and raises no inference of guilt. An individual
is presumed innocent until competent evidence is presented to a jury
that establishes guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
