An illegal immigrant man was arrested in New York after allegedly raping a 5-year-old girl, according to a Friday news release from Nassau County Police Department.
Wilson Castillo Diaz was accused of allegedly attacking the young girl on Oct. 16, according to the news release. Diaz was arrested on Oct. 26, and the girl was taken to a local hospital, according to the release.
Diaz was arraigned in court in Hempstead, New York, on Oct. 23, according to the police. The defendant was charged with first degree rape, endangering the welfare of a child and attempted rape, according to the release.
Diaz illegally immigrated to the Rio Grande Valley area of Texas in April 2014, according to the release. The man was then arrested by the U.S. Border Patrol, before he was released and later did not appear at an immigration court hearing, according to the release.
There have been various instances of crimes committed by illegal immigrants occurring across the U.S. in the past year, including a man who illegally immigrated to the U.S. in 2023 allegedly shooting a Jewish man in Chicago on Saturday, and migrants reportedly making up roughly 75% of arrests in Midtown Manhattan.
Vice President Kamala Harris has faced criticism over her handling of the border as President Joe Biden’s unofficial “border czar,” including from former President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly criticized her over the surge in illegal immigration America has experienced under the Biden-Harris administration.
Immigration is one of the top concerns for voters in this election cycle. Of registered voters, 54% said they would trust Trump to handle immigration over 45% who prefer Harris to address imigration, according to a Gallup poll published on Oct. 9.
