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 to WYFF.
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.
Arrest warrants identify Montejo as the biological father of the juvenile victim, according to WYFF.
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.
“This sicko should NEVER have been in our country to prey on children in the first place,” Acting Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Lauren Bis told The Daily Wire. “He now faces charges for incest and multiple child sex crimes.”
“Under 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,” Bis said.
Deputies were alerted after the girl gave birth, according to People Magazine. The case was then turned over to the Violent Crimes Unit of the Criminal Investigations Bureau, resulting in Montejo’s arrest on April 16.
Investigators have yet to determine the identity of the father of the young girl’s baby, according to FOX Carolina. The victim and her baby were subsequently placed into protective custody.
Rep. Sheri Biggs (R-SC) called Montejo’s alleged crimes “the worst of the worst” and “truly sickening and evil.”
“I thank ICE for their quick action, and I pray nothing like this ever happens again,” she said.
Montejo is being held on an $80,000 surety bond, according to multiple reports. The illegal immigrant has no previous criminal history in the United States, according to DHS.
