ICE Works with Local Law Enforcement to Keep Depraved Guatemalan Criminal Illegal Alien Charged in Rape of 5-Year-Old Girl in Long Island, New York Off the Streets

Release Date: March 24, 2026
Carlos Aguilar Reynoso, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala, was charged with rape, predatory sexual assault against a child, sexual abuse, and endangering the welfare of a child

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) arrest of Carlos Aguilar Reynoso, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala, who was charged with forcibly raping a 5-year-old girl on Long Island, New York.

According to reports, the horrific attack took place while Reynoso was asked to babysit the 5-year-old child. After the child’s mother returned home she discovered she was bleeding and took her to the hospital. While awaiting the rape DNA test, local authorities charged him with child endangerment and coordinated with ICE law enforcement to keep this pedophile out of American neighborhoods. ICE arrested him on February 2, 2026, and turned him over to local law enforcement on March 16, 2026.

On March 23, 2026, he was charged with predatory sex assault against a child, vaginal sexual contact with a child, sexual abuse, acting in a manner to injure a child, and resisting arrest.

“Carlos Aguilar Reynoso, a criminal illegal alien from Guatemala, was charged for *raping a five-year-old child** in New York. While local law enforcement processed DNA evidence and built their case, they contacted ICE to arrest this pedophile so he would not be released into our communities to prey on more innocent children,”* said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis . “On March 16, ICE transferred this monster to local law enforcement to face justice for his reprehensible crimes. This case shows why we need local law enforcement cooperation. When we work together, our communities are safer.”

Aguilar Reynoso entered the U.S. at an unknown place and time.

On March 16, 2026, Carlos Aguilar Reynoso was issued a final order of removal from an Immigration Judge.

ICE partnerships with local law enforcement are key to removing criminal illegal aliens including murderers, rapists, pedophiles, gang members, and terrorists from American communities. 7 of the 10 safest cities in the U.S. cooperate with ICE.
