Enrique Sanchez/Country Unknown/Lewd Acts with a Child

ICE San Diego arrested Enrique Sanchez, age 51, who is unlawfully present in the United States. His home country was not reported.

According to adjudicated records, Sanchez has a criminal conviction for lewd acts with a child. The offense involves unlawful sexual conduct directed at a minor and is charged as a serious felony due to the profound harm inflicted on victims. Courts treat these cases with heightened penalties, and post-conviction conditions often include lengthy supervision and restrictions designed to protect minors.

In prosecutions for lewd acts with a child, evidence commonly includes victim statements, corroborating testimony, forensic examinations, and digital or physical records that document the conduct. Convictions reflect judicial findings that the elements of the offense were proved beyond a reasonable doubt, distinguishing them from mere allegations. The nature of this crime carries enduring consequences for victims and typically requires the defendant to comply with strict court-ordered terms following release from custody.

Following his arrest, ICE officers transferred Sanchez to immigration detention for processing. He will remain in custody while removal proceedings move forward before an immigration judge. Standard steps include identity confirmation, collection of criminal records, and coordination of travel documentation with the receiving government. If a final order of removal is issued, Sanchez will be repatriated to his country of citizenship after the administrative requirements are satisfied. The immigration case proceeds separately from any remaining criminal obligations, and custody decisions during the immigration process are made under federal statute and applicable regulations.
