Three Charged in Sexual Assault of City GirlBy Kimberly Lenz Friday, July 02, 2010 
Rape suspects: Samuel Eli Jacobo-Guirao, 20, at left and Tito Guirao-Aguilar, 39.
Tito Guirao-Aguilar, 39, and Samuel Eli Jacobo-Guirao, 20, both of Williamsburg, have each been charged with felonies related to the sexual assault of a child. They are being held without bond at the Virginia Peninsula Regional Jail; a bond hearing is scheduled for July 16. A 17-year-old boy was questioned as a suspect and charged Friday, although the exact charges were not immediately available. His name has not been released because he has been charged as a juvenile. Williamsburg police Lt. Andy Barker said investigators began working on the case earlier this week when contacted by Child Protective Services, which had opened an investigation. The child was known to all the suspects, he said. Guirao-Aguilar faces three counts of aggravated sexual battery of a person under the age of 13. He also faces a hold by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which may indicate Guirao-Aguilar is in the country illegally. Jacobo-Guirao is charged with one county of rape of a person under the age of 13 and two counts of aggravated sexual battery of a person under 13. Barker said police engaged a number of professionals, including a forensic interviewer from Children's Hospital of the King's Daughers, the commonwealth's attorney and CHKD physicians, to create a multi-discipline approach to question the girl. He explained that such plans are "designed for the health of the child as well as the prosecution of the offender." "Our number one consideration is the victim, especially one of this age," said Barker. "How this is handled will have a lot of determination in the future health of that child." |

No, Patricia Jump is definitely NOT saying “she'd feel better if the men were not illegal aliens, as if being raped by a citizen makes it better somehow.”
You seem to have misread my letter just as badly as I misread the article.
I strongly felt, as "A MOTHER OF TWO" said, that the writer was putting forth their own agenda, and I agree with everything she wrote. But I see today that my letter included a reaction to something that was not the case, because I incorrectly assumed, from “MY OPINION'S" letter, that the article must have said the men were illegal aliens. It did not say that, although the article did say one of the men faced a hold from Immigrations and Customs which could indicate he was here illegally.
"MY OPINION" had said that they "had a problem with blaming it on the "illegal alien" concept when the "Catholic concept" is ongoing and unmentioned with the same fervor.” I reacted to that. Any further explanation or defense of my comments would be putting forth my own agenda, and that is what I objected to in “MY OPINON’S” letter.

These three men are horrible mistakes for human beings. Doesn't matter if they're here or there or in the priesthood.
I disagree. It does make a difference. Illegals know that if they're caught not much will happen to them because they are illegal. They will be deported and that's all. Damn them all all and send them all back.They are the downfall of America. They owe loyalty to no one but themselves.
to really understand how illegal aliens contribute to child molestation, you would have to see what percentage of child molesters are Latinos, whites, Asians, whatever else you want - and you'll see the largest percentage are priests.
But getting back to your point, my fear is that stereotyping latino men as exceptionally likely to be child molesters is just plain wrong. Don't start it here.
While this is, in fact, a despicable act, attempting to make it worse by coming to unsubstantiated conclusions only feeds the frenzy of woe-be-gotten minds.
Let's wait until the facts have been made clear before inciting premature and possibly undue mania.
Oh come on...why bring that into this case? You are not so naive as to really believe that Catholic priests are the only religious leaders that have ever taken such hideous abuse of their power or that churches -no matter the denomination- rampantly cover up such abuses? I mean, are you? What has THAT to do with the victimization of this child? Putting forth your own agenda (however well-intentione d it may be) in the face of a horrific crime against a girl who is probably a kindergartner or 1st grader in our community's school system shows such a lack of compassion on YOUR part. I always fear for the future of such young victims of sexual violence, no matter WHO perpetrated the crime, but to have 3 abusers you KNOW, regardless of their citizenship status, so viciously attack you... Who will help this child, this SIX-YEAR-OLD, move forward in her life when she was already "known to all the suspects"...? I dearly hope she has the support she will need to go on.
As adults, the lesson we can take from this case -and in cases of all church abuses- is to listen to the children in our lives, to give value to their words, thoughts, and feelings, and to be ever vigilant on their behalf -- even with those you know.
