ICE Boston arrests illegal Guatemalan alien charged with aggravated rape of Massachusetts child

LAWRENCE, Mass. — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Drug Enforcement Administration arrested Stivenson Omar Perez-Ajtzalan, 19, an illegal Guatemalan alien charged with aggravated rape of a child, in Lawrence Jan. 30.

“Stivenson Omar Perez-Ajtzalan entered this country illegally and victimized a Massachusetts child ten years his junior,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “Not only did Perez display a blatant disregard for our immigration laws, he sexually assaulted a child. He came to this country to do harm, and now he must be made to face the consequences of his actions. ICE Boston will remain dedicated to our mission of protecting public safety by arresting and removing illegal alien offenders from New England.”

The Lawrence District Court arraigned Perez Dec. 20, 2024, on felony charges of aggravated rape of a child with a ten-year age difference, which is currently pending.

ICE issued Perez a notice to appear before a Justice Department immigration judge following his arrest and placed him into removal proceedings. He remains in ICE custody.
