An illegal migrant from El Salvador who had previously been deported twice from the United States was arrested by authorities on child sex abuse charges.
The Montgomery County Department of Police arrested Ervin Jeovany Alfaro Lopez, 33, for allegedly sexually abusing at least three minors between the ages of 6 and 12.

“Meet Ervin Jeovany Alfaro Lopez, a twice-deported illegal working as a teacher in Maryland. He was just arrested and charged with s*xually abusing multiple minors. One of the victims was just 6-years-old. Biden’s open border policy is allowing r*pists and p*dophiles to repeatedly enter our country,” Libs of TikTok wrote.

From The Post Millennial:
Court documents state that Lopez inappropriately touched his students when their eyes were closed for prayer and when they were watching movies. He allegedly admitted to his pastor that he had touched a girl inappropriately and that the issue had been “dealt with internally.”
Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) confirmed that Lopez is an illegal immigrant who had been previously deported in 2015.
ICE said in a statement: “He was arrested by US Border Patrol (USBP) in near Lake Charles, Louisiana, on March 23, 2015, after having unlawfully entered the United States and was issued a Notice to Appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge. Alfaro Lopez was released on $7,500.00 bond on April 1, 2015, and ordered to report to the [Enforcement and Removal Operations] Baltimore field office.”
On Sept. 26, 2018, and immigration judge in Baltimore ordered Lopez to be deported from the US.
“ERO Baltimore arrested Alfaro Lopez on Jan. 23, 2019. The DOJ immigration judge granted Alfaro Lopez a voluntary departure from the US within 60 days of April 16, 2019,” said ICE. “He left the US on April 30, 2019.”
After being deported in 2019, Lopez illegally re-entered the US. He was apprehended again on March 9, 2020 in Rio Grande Valley, Texas. He was deported back to El Salvador on March 24, 2020.
