Gerardo Garcia Gonzalez is charged with sexually assaulting a minor between the ages of 13 and 15, including allegations of force or coercion.

He is currently in custody in New Jersey — but federal immigration authorities have warned he could be released due to the state’s sanctuary policies, depending on future court decisions.

According to reports, Gonzalez had previously been deported and later re-entered the United States.

This case involves alleged violence against a child. If he is released, the risk is immediate and preventable.

We call on New Jersey judges and prosecutors to ensure that Gerardo Garcia Gonzalez remains in custody and is not released while facing these charges.
