Illegal immigrant accused of raping 10-year-old boy in Mississippi

An illegal immigrant from Mexico allegedly raped a 10-year-old boy in Mississippi.

The Pontotoc County Sheriff’s Department said its deputies arrested “illegal alien” Filiberto Gonzalez, 34, at his area home Aug. 12 for the alleged rape.

Gonzalez remains in the sheriff’s custody pending his upcoming hearing on two charges of rape.

It remains unclear when and where Gonzalez entered the US.

The sexual assault is only among the latest in a slew of alleged migrant-perpetrated sex crimes. Over a recent two-week period, there were at least three such reputed migrant crimes in New York City alone.

Senegalese migrant Papa Diop, 38, was arrested last week for allegedly raping a 36-year-old woman in The Bronx, according to authorities. He crossed the border in 2023 and was released into the US because of a lack of detention space.

The day before Diop’s arrest, cops nabbed Nicaraguan national Daniel Davon-Bonilla, 24, for allegedly raping a woman at knifepoint under the Coney Island boardwalk in Brooklyn.

Davon-Bonilla allegedly had a fellow migrant accomplice, who smashed the victim’s boyfriend with a pipe when he tried to intervene, according to police and prosecutors.

Ousmane Balde, 20, who hails from Guinea, also was arrested Aug. 6 and is accused of fondling a a 57-year-old woman in Central Park in Manhattan
