The victim reported the instances of rape to a school social worker in July.
The victim was introduced to Palacios-Amaya in September 2018 through her older brother, according to WJLA. Palacios-Amaya then reportedly raped her several times over the following months, authorities say.
On one occasion, Palacios-Amaya used a cell phone to record sexual acts with the 11-year-old, according to court documents. Investigators reportedly found several images on Palacios-Amaya’s cell phone of himself and the victim.
The victim explained to the social worker that Palacios-Amaya would pressure her to stay home from school so he could spend the day with her alone while her parents were away at work.
The second alleged rapist, Barrera-Navidad, reportedly attended the victim’s older brother’s birthday party at a trailer park in Germantown, Maryland, in July 2018, where he allegedly raped the 11-year-old in a bedroom, WJLA reports.

Montgomery County District Court Judge Sherri Koch granted Barrera-Navidad, an El Salvadorian national, a $100,000 bond, though he remains incarcerated while awaiting trial. Palacios-Amaya, also an El Salvadorian national and charged with four rape counts, was denied bond by Montgomery County District Court Judge Eric Nee.
ICE has confirmed both suspects are present in the United States illegally. Palacios-Amaya had been previously deported in 2014 and reentered the U.S. at an unknown time, according to ICE.

Sanctuary County Will Work With ICE In Wake Of Alleged Child Rape By Illegal Aliens

*Two illegal aliens have been arrested in Montgomery County, Maryland, for allegedly raping an 11-year-old girl. ICE has lodged detainers on both men.
*County Executive Marc Elrich, a Democrat, signed a “sanctuary” executive order in June that prohibits local law enforcement from working with ICE.
*Despite the executive order, Elrich says local police will notify federal immigration authorities when the two men are released from custody.
Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich will allow ICE to be notified when two alleged child rapists are released from police custody, despite signing an executive order that effectively turned his county into a “sanctuary” for those living in the U.S. illegally.
“After determining that the suspects are undocumented immigrants, Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) requested that the County notify them if and when the two men are scheduled to be released from custody for any reason,” said in a statement issued late Wednesday, according to Montgomery Community Media. “The County will do so.”
The announcement comes after Montgomery County Police arrested Mauricio Barrera-Navidad, 29, and Carlos Palacios-Amaya, 28 — both residents of Montgomery County, Maryland — for allegedly raping an 11-year-old girl on multiple occasions.
Palacios-Amaya was introduced to the underage victim in September 2018 through her older brother. Palacios-Amaya then allegedly raped her several times throughout the following months. During one encounter, Palacios-Amaya used his cell phone to record the assault, with authorities discovering several images of the victim and Palacios-Amaya stored on the phone.
Berrera-Navidad allegedly raped the young girl in July 2018 during her brother’s birthday party at a trailer park in Germantown, Maryland.
The victim eventually reported the rapes to a social worker in July.
An ICE spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation that both Palacios-Amaya and Berrera-Navidad are Salvadorian nationals living in the country illegally. Palacios-Amaya was previously deported from the U.S. in 2014, but was somehow returned at an unknown time. Berrera-Navidad, according to ICE, was given a final order for removal by an immigration judge in December 2016.
ICE has lodged detainer requests for both individuals.
“Montgomery County is a welcoming community that values the diversity of communities that are made up of people from a variety of backgrounds, cultures, and nations,” Elrich, a Democrat, continued in his statement. “We believe that being a welcoming community to the people who live and work here creates a stronger relationship between communities and our law enforcement agencies, which make our communities safer.”
Elrich, who called the alleged crime “horrible,” said that Montgomery County officials will honor ICE’s request and notify the agency when the pair are released from custody.
The county executive’s statement comes less than a month after he signed “The Promoting Community Trust Executive Order,” an executive order that effectively bars county law enforcement from working with federal immigration authorities. The order — made in defiance of the Trump administration’s illegal immigration crackdown — prohibits county police officers from asking about a resident’s immigration status and prohibits them from working with ICE.
While Elrich’s Wednesday announcement appears to be a reversal of the sanctuary policy he signed in July, the county executive maintains that the policy has not changed.
“The new Promoting Community Trust Executive Order has not changed the County’s policy on cooperating with ICE requests for notification of the release of individuals charged with serious crimes,” Elrich said in his Wednesday statement.
Elrich in July, however, said during the signing of his executive order that immigration enforcement was the “sole responsibility” of the federal government. Additionally, the Montgomery County acting Police Chief Marcus Jones said in July that it has been longstanding policy to have “no direct contact” with ICE on immigration issues.
