Elmer Oliva Diaz/Honduras/Sexual Enticement of Minor

by G. George | August 15, 2026

Federal immigration agents arrested Elmer Oliva Diaz, a Honduras national here illegally, in Hastings, Nebraska, on charges of sexual enticement of minor.

The charges filed against Diaz carry criminal penalties under state law and separately provide grounds for federal immigration enforcement. Local prosecutors will handle the criminal case through the state court system while federal immigration authorities pursue removal in a concurrent proceeding, both matters moving simultaneously on independent timelines.

Diaz remains in ICE custody pending a hearing before a federal immigration judge. If the court orders removal, Diaz would be returned to Honduras.
