RUSSELLVILLE — Authorities said a Franklin County man who is being held by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services pleaded guilty this morning to assaulting a girl in 2014.

Franklin County court officials said Pedro Ramirez Rocha, 43, 100 Town and Country Trailer Park Lot A1, Russellville, pleaded guilty to second-degree assault.

Rocha was indicted in September 2015 on four counts of sexual abuse of a child under 12.

Franklin County District Attorney Joey Rushing said the plea agreement was finalized with the blessings of the victim’s family.

He said the girl is now 11, but the family didn’t want to put her through the stress of testimony and going through a trial.

“They were concerned about the stress the case would put on their child,” Rushing said. “But they were ready to go forward if (Rocha) had not entered the guilty plea.”

As a part of the plea, Rocha was sentenced to five years in prison. He is facing deportation after he serves his prison term.

You can thank bush & obama for allowing such assaults on our children. This is what allowing open borders into the USA brings. I do not comprehend ANY American ignoring this issue. That includes any jerk in position of mayor etc. that grants sanctuary city status. How do you like the reality of your actions? Is it ok with you if this guy sexually abuses your underage child, daughter, son or grandchild? This is what you enable -TREASONOUS SCUM!

Officials have accepted the plea of a 43-year-old illegal immigrant on charges that he sexually assaulted a ten-year-old girl in 2014.

Franklin County, Alabama court officials said Pedro Ramirez Rocha of Russellville pleaded guilty to second-degree assault.

Rocha was indicted last September on four counts of sexual abuse of a child under 12 after the girl’s family came forward.

Authorities said that the plea deal was approved with the agreement of the child’s parents, who hoped to avoid a lengthy trial. The parents said that they wanted to avoid further trauma to their little girl, now 11.

“They were concerned about the stress the case would put on their child,” Franklin County District Attorney Joey Rushing said. “But they were ready to go forward if (Rocha) had not entered the guilty plea.”

Rocha will serve five years in prison, then be deported, prosecutors said.
