This pedophile came into the country illegally under the Biden Administration
WASHINGTON - The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement after a criminal illegal alien in Missouri was sentenced to 25 years in prison for raping and impregnating a 12-year-old girl. He was also initially charged with production of child pornography.
According to local reporting, the Greene County Sheriff's Office arrested Brayanne Escobar-Guarnizo, a criminal illegal alien from Colombia, on September 22, 2024, after receiving a call from a woman who said that he impregnated her 12-year-old daughter. Authorities obtained photos and messages confirming that the suspect repeatedly made advances on the 12-year-old, including asking her for nude photos and videos.
He was charged with production of child pornography and sexual exploitation of a minor, pleading guilty to the latter charge in August of 2025.
On May 18, 2026, Escobar-Guarnizo was sentenced to 300 months - a total of 25 years - in prison. This sentencing was the result of an investigation that was led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), along with state and local law enforcement.
"This dirtbag was charged with production of child pornography and sexual exploitation of a minor after he raped and impregnated a 12-year-old girl," said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. "Thanks to the investigative work of ICE law enforcement officers and our state and local partners, this child predator has now been sentenced to 25 years behind bars. This illegal alien NEVER should have been allowed into our country by the Biden Administration. Under Secretary Mullin, we will continue to target criminal illegal aliens and get them OUT of our communities."
Escobar-Guarnizo entered the United States illegally in 2023 under the Biden Administration.
