An illegal immigrant is accused of sexually abusing his minor daughter over several years before she gave birth earlier this month in a South Carolina hospital parking lot, The Daily Wire has learned.<\/p>\n
Mexican national Luis Armando Argueta Montejo, 43, was arrested and charged with three counts of second-degree criminal sexual misconduct with a minor and one count of incest after the girl gave birth on April 11 in Oconee County, according<\/a> to WYFF.<\/p>\n Investigators say Montejo engaged in sexual intercourse with the victim, who is believed to be between 11 and 14 years old, between 2022 and 2025, WSAZ reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n Arrest warrants identify Montejo as the biological father of the juvenile victim, according to WYFF.<\/p>\n Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer on April 17 and expects that local authorities will comply and hand him over to federal immigration agents, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire. Montejo told ICE he first entered the United States in 2006, the agency said.<\/p>\n \u201cThis sicko should NEVER have been in our country to prey on children in the first place,\u201d Acting Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Lauren Bis told The Daily Wire. \u201cHe now faces charges for incest and multiple child sex crimes.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cUnder Secretary [Markwayne] Mullin, ICE lodged an arrest detainer with South Carolina to ensure this monster is never loose in our communities again. Thankfully, South Carolina cooperates with ICE law enforcement. This is why we need cooperation from state and local partners, so together we can keep criminals off our streets and make America safe again,\u201d Bis said.<\/p>\n
