A Guatemalan illegal immigrant, Viera-Guevara, previously deported in 2019, has been charged with five counts of child rape in Martha's Vineyard and another case of child abuse in Virginia. ICE Boston arrested the individual, who re-entered the U.S. as a gotaway. Despite being arraigned for rape, the Essex County Superior Court released him on bail, ignoring ICE's detainer request. The case highlights concerns over the 1.8 million known gotaways who have entered the U.S. under the Biden and Harris administration.
