Efrain Garcia Pedro/Guatemala/Sexual Assault of a Disabled Person

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Efrain Garcia Pedro, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala, in Canton, Georgia, on charges of sexual assault of a disabled person.

Sexual assault of a disabled person is among the most serious offenses under Georgia law, targeting a particularly vulnerable victim. The offense carries mandatory lengthy prison sentences and lifetime sex offender registration. Crimes of this nature are treated with heightened severity under both state and federal law given the victim’s inability to defend themselves, and criminal illegal aliens convicted of such offenses face both criminal punishment and mandatory removal proceedings.

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officers apprehended Garcia Pedro in Canton. He currently remains in federal immigration custody and faces removal proceedings before a Department of Justice immigration judge, with potential deportation back to Guatemala.
