Waukesha - A man charged with attacking two women and raping one of them in Frame Park in separate attacks last month is an illegal immigrant who is believed to have been deported from the country in the past, Waukesha County District Attorney Paul Bucher said Wednesday.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have been notified about the arrest of the suspect, Fernando Juarez Decion, and have placed a detain order on him to bar his release from custody if he is able to post the $150,000 bail that has been set in his case, Bucher said.

Bucher said he notified federal immigration officials about Juarez Decion this week after learning that he was an illegal immigrant who apparently returned to the United States after being deported sometime in the past.

Last month, Bucher, who is running for state attorney general and has made a campaign issue of illegal immigrants in the criminal justice system, contacted immigration authorities about another Waukesha crime suspect, Nicolas T. Arias.

In that case, Arias, 25, agreed to waive deportation proceedings and was returned to Mexico in lieu of being prosecuted for six criminal counts accusing him of using his cellular telephone to take photographs under women's dresses and skirts in Waukesha County. Bucher agreed to waive Arias' prosecution on the charges to speed his deportation, but his office intends to have the case reinstated if Arias returns to the U.S., something Arias' attorney does not foresee.

Decion, 30, was charged June 28 with three felonies of second-degree sexual assault by use of force, robbery with use of force and substantial battery for an attack on a woman he met three days earlier at Fiesta Waukesha in Frame Park, a criminal complaint says.

He was also charged with misdemeanor battery in an attack June 15 on a woman on the west side of the Fox River just across from the park, according to a complaint.

Juarez Decion was released on a signature bond on June 20 following his arrest on suspicion of the first attack

Juarez Decion is known by at least 12 aliases and has no permanent address, according to court records. He is scheduled to appear in court next on Friday.

He was being held Wednesday in the Waukesha County Jail.
