ERO Boston arrests Dominican national in Massachusetts after being released on bail concerning child molestation-sexual assault charges in Rhode Island
BOSTON — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston arrested Belardis Tapia Gonzalez, a Dominican national charged with second-degree child molestation-sexual assault in Rhode Island, Nov. 18. Tapia unlawfully entered the United States around July 2021.
“ERO Boston is tasked with keeping our communities safe from potentially dangerous noncitizens — particularly those accused of crimes so egregious as child sexual assault,” said ERO Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “Our officers apprehended Tapia, who has been accused of terrible crimes, after we discovered that a court in Warwick, Rhode Island, released him on bail.”
ERO Boston’s Fugitive Operations Team arrested Tapia in Lynn and served him with a notice to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge. He is currently in ICE custody.
