Atlanta, Ga. 5/08/2008 02:10 PM GMT (FINDITT - Top Story)
Police in Idaho have arrested a suspected illegal immigrant and charged him with raping a 10-year-old girl who later gave birth.
Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez, 37 was arrested by St. Anthony, Idaho police after medical officials notified authorities of a young girl who was pregnant on April 28. Police arrested Gutierrez-Juarez that day following several witnesses coming forward and providing information.
The 10-year-old girl reportedly gave birth about two weeks ago at Madison Memorial Hospital but there have been no details about the baby or the mother.
Gutierrez-Juarez has been charged with one count of rape and is currently in jail with bail set at $250,000. Investigators have not ruled out additional rape charges against the man.

1. Yes, these crimes are also committed by legal residents & and citizens of the US

That said, if he's found guilty deport his ass as soon as he's done his time.
off to a good start...

14. tell me...how him being undocumented has anything to do with thus crime he is accused of committing. We can play this game all day long. IF he had never be conceived, then this little girl would have not been raped. If he had moved to California instead of Georgia, then this little girl would have not been raped. If he was shot in the head by a racist bigot 2 weeks prior, then this little girl would have not been raped. There are an infinite scenarios where this girl would have not been raped, but sadly, she was. We, as a society, must find the person(s) responsible for this crime, and punish them to the fullest extent of the law.
logic arguements by DUmmies never really make sense.

20. Disregard for the immigration laws does not mean disregard of
the criminal law.
In fact, it rarely does.
That this guy is illegal is irrelevant.
One wonders if this is even true. It is such an obvious anti-immigrant hit piece. If the guy did such a horrible thing, his immigration status would be way down on the list of concerns.
And now, they question the story. Is treestar a social laywer with a degree in psycology?

15. *Supposing* he's guilty
and we have NO way of knowing that at this time,
you could be right, but then some other child in another country would have been raped.
That doesn't resolve the issue, and racism is the motivator for such comments, and for this being Front Page News.
If he'd had a green card, they just would have given his name w/o the "suspected illegal immigrant" epithet, leaving you to assume he was illegal and judge him for both crimes before he is tried.
Pretty easy. DNA test.

5. Are there any other sources on this?
I have a hard time believing that a 10 year old could actually sustain a pregnancy long enough to give birth.
hitler called this the Big Lie approach.

19. I've heard anti-abortion fundies say this before...
If a girl is raped, they should not consider their pregnancy a tragedy and terminate it, they should consider it a blessing from god and keep the baby...
So according to their logic this girl is blessed. Even though she's probably not even in middle school yet.

And they call this Justification.

56. It sure is - Suppose the girl is an illegal, too?
No mention of that. It's become de rigeur for Repugs to scout out crimes committed by illegals. Why was this girl forced to carry a rapist's fetus to term and give birth (by Caesarian section) at the age of 10?
rationalization of the crime. The Right-wing FORCED her to have the baby.

37. OK...question...who in THE HELL allows their 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER to carry a child to term?
And the product of a rape at that?
And what parent is so out of touch with their 10 year old daughter that they somehow don't know she's pregnant?
Well I guess this is a win for the 'pro-life' crowd...
Misplaced anger. Anywhere but the criminal.

61. WAIT for the DNA test. It could be the girl's relative, in hiding
Edited on Thu May-08-08 07:15 PM by OKthatsIT
Could be a evil government operative...who told the girl what to say and what to do...remember, Boys Town? Remember Lawrence King?
Wonder if she'll end up in foster care?
****. maybe it's Cheney's baby! Sick freaks.
