Twice-deported illegal alien criminal is Arizona serial rapist suspect
Just think: If John McCain had his way, this animal might have received amnesty. Remember: Despite all the slick assurances from shamnesty advocates, their plan’s criminal background checks were a joke.
All of the illegal alien suspect’s victims were young girls between the ages of 12 and 15. He started his raping spree last June–targeting young girls living in single-parent homes after watching the victims and casing their homes before the attacks. Maybe some newspaper editorial board will make him “Arizonan of the Year.” After all, he was earning a living as a heavy equipment operator:
He packed his car, withdrew his cash and planned to slip quietly into Mexico. But the escape was cut short Friday morning as Chandler detectives closed in. Click here for video, slideshow and more coverage
Police then arrested the man on suspicion of sexually assaulting five girls and attacking another in the Chandler Rapist crime spree that spanned 18 months, police announced Saturday.
Santana Batiz-Aceves, 39, a twice-deported illegal immigrant with a history of drug charges, was arrested about 11:49 a.m. Friday at his Chandler home near Arizona Avenue and Ray Road. He was booked into Maricopa County’s Fourth Avenue Jail on suspicion of 25 felonies, including kidnapping, child molestation, sexual abuse, sexual conduct with a minor, aggravated assault, burglary and trespassing.
He is being held without bond.
“From the beginning of this investigation, we have believed that help from our community and good, old-fashioned police work were the most likely avenues to solving this series of crimes,” Chandler police Chief Sherry Kiyler said at a news conference Saturday. “This has turned out to be the case.”
Police said DNA links Batiz-Aceves, a heavy equipment operator, to three of the sexual assaults. Items found in his car and house also link him to the attacks, police said.
Kiyler said the arrest unfolded Friday morning when detectives were working a saturation patrol in the area of the rapes. A Chandler task force detective spotted a white two-door Toyota Tercel matching a car described in a Nov. 8 home intrusion linked to the Chandler Rapist. Police followed the car and stopped it about 7 a.m. Friday near North California Street and Ray Road. During the stop, a detective noticed a jacket in the car matching descriptions provided by two victims.
Batiz-Aceves first told detectives his name was Ricardo Ramirez Lopez and that he lived in Casa Grande and was in Chandler for work and to find a friend, Kiyler said. When police asked to swab his cheek for DNA, he refused. Officers kept a close watch on the man and obtained a court order for his DNA, but when they tried to contact him at his home, they said he was attempting to leave. “When we went back to contact him, he was in the process of loading up his vehicle,” said Chandler police spokesman Sgt. Rick Griner.
Griner said Batiz-Aceves also had a large sum of cash , and detectives concluded he was planning to flee to Mexico.
Just raping the young girls no one else was raping.
Such are the bloody consequences of a Sanctuary Nation:
Valley police departments don’t keep track of the numbers of crimes committed by immigrants, legal or illegal, because they consider immigration to be a federal responsibility. The federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency concentrates mostly on human- and drug-smuggling operations without comparing its notes with law enforcement in general.
About 20 percent of the 9,423 inmates in Maricopa County jails on Friday had immigration holds, said Maricopa County sheriff’s Deputy Doug Matteson. About 10 percent of Arizona’s population is made up of Mexican nationals.
Batiz Aceves’ illegal status undoubtedly will be held up by most people as the consequences of failures in federal immigration policy, sociologists and national immigration experts said. The crimes he’s accused of also will reinforce the stance that the same borders that allow ordinary immigrants to illegally enter the U.S. to find work also allow in immigrants who commit crimes, they said.
“(The U.S. borders) are an open invitation to people who are criminals,” said Ira Mehlman, spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a Washington organization that opposes any form of legalization for undocumented immigrants. “Just as people come here to take advantage of other benefits this country has to offer, criminals will come here also.”
The crimes Batiz Aceves is accused of also will add fuel to the debate about whether state and local police should enforce immigration laws: Batiz Aceves’ arrest comes four months after another undocumented immigrant killed Phoenix police Officer Nick Erfle.
Hey, how’s that fence coming along?
Never mind.

Dan Riehl: If Batiz Aceves had lived, worked, and raped in Arkansas, would he have earned a Huckabee pardon?

Build the fence you idiots. Don’t you get it. We want the fence and we want it now.
Then enforce the laws we already have. Don’t mess with us, the citizens of the USA. Do it and do it NOW.
What a bunch of clowns in politics.
Maybe he thought Arizona was included in “Texan of the Year” and he was entitled to a crime spree.
Santana Batiz-Aceves–the Willie Horton of amnesty.
This portion of the story is disturbing:
How many of Batiz-Aceves’ peers do slip away while law enforcement waits for court orders to take a cheek swab?
C’mon Michelle, don’t stumble on the punchline.
It’s “Just raping the young girls Americans won’t rape.”
I can’t believe that this happened. I mean, how could anyone have seen this coming in Arizona? McCain, amnesty, open borders, etc. It just doesn’t add up. Sarcasm off
Another depressing story, MM. You’ll probably be attacked again for reporting on it. Look out for the spittle.
Hey, in Texas they’d call this guy “Man of the Year”.
Are future votes and jockeying for who’s going to get the Hispanic vote really worth this?
BUILD THE FENCE.
Neither Rudy, McCain, Huckabee, nor any Democrat will build the fence.
How does a twice deported illegal border crosser get certified as a heavy equipment operator in Arizona? What did he list as his experience on his job application?
Thanks Michelle for passing this on to the rest of the folks not from Arizona … We deal with these types of incidents on a daily basis here and it hardly gets the light of day anywhere else in the country …
My son and his girl friend were robbed at gunpoint last week as they were coming out of a convenience store on their way home from a movie … fortunately no one was injured … but they stayed calm and made sure they had good descriptions of the gunman and the car he took off in for the police … they caught him within 24 hours …
The guy is an illegal … been deported 3 times since 2002 … was already wanted in several parts of the state on various charges for drug trafficking, assault and battery, burglary and more … plus there were outstanding warrants for failure to appear on other charges …
Again … thanks for highlighting this story for others around the country …
MTNEER
the answer to your question is really quite simple … he gets paid under the table by some construction company trying to save money by hiring illegals …
that is changing already with our new employer and illegal hiring law here in AZ …
My mother lives in Chandler, which is mostly a bedroom community of newly built homes that sprang out of the desert south of Phoenix thanks to an influx of those fleeing the oppressive taxes of California. When I first heard about the serial rapist by surfing on Free Republic I contacted her to ensure she was using proper safety measures. She was well informed and stated elderly women didn’t fit this animal’s profile. It is past time to fortify our borders and stop this invasion. How many of McCain’s constituents need to have their civil rights violated before this lying crapweasel will do something about it.
Don’t forget, these are God’s children, too.
Not sure what that means; God’s children are above the law, I guess?
Hey, friends, the only candidates who would have built the fence are long gone, because they could not get the press or the MSM to give them the time of day – Tom Tancredo and Duncan Hunter.
I would not trust anyone among the top of the current field of candidates to lift a finger to stop the invasion from Mexico – because they are all tied to corporate interests who want cheap labor.
Since Tancredo’s departure from the scene, I have not heard one of these shysters promise to seal the border and build the fence. That issue has gone from the horizon.
After George Bush’s border betrayal (accompanied by John McCain) I will not trust another politican, Republican or Democrat, to do anything he promises to do in the “interest of the American people” – ever.
George Bush has left a taste in my mouth that will not soon go away. Call me an angry conservative – and you’d be right.
The article that appeared in the Arizona Republic on Sunday morning mentioned his immigration status, but not until about the 8th paragraph.
Looks like he wasn’t paid under the table for those of you wondering how he got the job. I wouldn’t think they’d have “computer records” of under-the-table workers.
How does McCain get away with saying he is the toughest and best on national security?
Most of the illegal drugs and aliens come across the AZ border. McCain is from AZ. He had years to fix this.
Then he makes a backroom deal with kennedy which did not address border security. Who could possibly vote for this man? I don’t get it.
What I don’t get is this. It’s one thing to be saddled with a problem that the Feds ignored like Illegal Immigration. And to the extent Mitt, Mike, and Rudy had to deal with it, they get a little bit of a pass. McCain was working with Teddy, to the horror of not only Republicans and Independents but, many Democrats to grant amnesty to millions of illegals. Where is the outrage. When this was being shoved down the throat of the American people we shut down the phone system in Congress. E-mail addresses were flooded with angry letters. We were called racist and short sighted and insulted by many Senators but, they had to listen and the legislation was defeated. Why is McCain getting so much support from the people that he insulted in anger and whose lives would be immediately and negatively impacted. I believe that if elected he would sign the bill the liberal congress would send up that he helped craft. Maybe I am missing something but, I don’t get it. And yes, the primary system needs a complete over haul.
As I have said twice before in these threads – how can anyone believe illegal immigration is such an important issue when McCain is leading in the polls? It is giving me a headache trying to figure it out.
#15 – I have the same bad taste in my mouth from Bush too.
Probably NOT rapist!!!!!!
It is quite easy for these creeps to slip back and forth across the border – and it ought to be obvious that terrorist creeps can do the same. Only Tancredo had a forceful policy of dealing with the bums, although Romney has indicated a get tough policy.
Damn shame we haven’t one politician running at the top of the ticket who says we will build the fence first and then scour the country to correct the mess made by the political class over the past couple of decades.
Do Mexican citizens have any shame? Are there any outspoken Mexicans who are mortified at what their citizens are doing north of their border?
All they yammer about is “CHANGE” what specifically are they planning to change? Diapers? sarc/off
BrianNY – no, they are all here for the freebies they can’t get at home.
I live in one of the neighborhoods that this creep was targeting for the past 18 months. I’m glad he was caught (too bad he didn’t “fall down” during the arrest) and I hope they put him in jail for the rest of his life instead of deporting him – because he will just slip back in to the US (like he did twice before).
One interesting aspect of this story is that when they had a description of the suspect, the “immigration activists” and a local radio station decried the use of “hispanic” in the decription, because they felt it was racist (”He may look hispanic, but he may not be hispanic”). Unbelievable. The talk station here is on fire this morning (figuratively, not literally
), but I haven’t heard a peep from the activists. Where are they now?
BUILD THE FENCE – ENFORCE THE LAWS – NO SANCTUARIES
It doesnt matter what these crapweasels say as long as distracts from their stances on the issues they dont want to face and make no mistake that is their intent. the medai is lapping it up and reporting all this BS much to the pleasure of Hillda beast and her cronies. I want to hear the dems exact plan on immigration and other issues no beating around and side stepping it I want to hear it loud and clear. soundbites of race and drugs…who cares.
that was meant for the other thread but it works here also.
Not to worry, McCain or any of the other liberals will free him immediately and kay bailey hutchison will sponsor him as Texan of the year.
Don’t confuse the opinions of a couple of Marxist editorial writers with the vast majority of the citizens. We’re far more impacted by the negative results of illegal immigration than most other states. Most of those protesting the border fence are landowners who don’t want it on their property and business owners who are afraid of losing some of their cross-border customers.
On the contrary, they’re more than happy to send us all their criminals – just as the Cubans did.
We need a deal with Mexico. When we deport criminals they put them in jail.
It’s not really his fault, he has to come to the USA to rape. If you rape young girls in Mexico you are in very SERIOUS trouble. You do not get $20,000 to start your defense legal team. You do not get the full force of law enforcement to protect you, from those who may want to do you harm. …. I am working up to a very ugly truth…The USA is the safest place in the world to rape children. And it sure looks like the criminals are very last on the list to deal with on this issue. First priority, get the illegals that are working. Close down a few business, make sure as many illegals that are now supporting themselves can no longer do so. (guess who is standing by to offer free support) but on the bright side perhaps after all the hard working non-citizens have felt the wrath of the LAW, perhaps some attention can be given to the non-citizen criminal element?
DesertLover is right, this type of thing happens all the time here in Arizona. Looks like this creature may have been doing the same thing in California, too: Investigators: possible ties to California rapist case
Never happen. Just look at Elvira Arellano – she’s practically a saint in mexico (before the arguments start – she was in the US illegally, engaged in ID fraud, was employed illegally and defied at least one deportation order).
If we got rid of all of the illegal alien criminals in the US, just think of the lost revenue for mexico. Maybe we should enact a law for all of the money-wiring services: to send money from the US to an outside country, first prove you are in the US legally (citizen, resident alien, visa). That would cause a lot of illegals to go back home.
Sir Loin
Thanks for passing along the CA possiblity to others here … I was aware of it but figured I had gone off enough already and didn’t try to add that point in my earlier post …
Desertlover is correct. We deal with this daily in Arizona. My neighborhood has gotten so bad my wife and I try to stagger our work schedules so someone is always home to guard the castle. We used to hear gunfire mostly south of us in the neighboring subdivsion. Now we hear gunfire almost daily/nightly in both subdivisions.
I have no idea why people keep voting for that rat McShamenesty, and Kyl is really no better either. Build the damn fence, NOW.
Mexico isn’t so bad once you have spent most of your time in America raping young girls. They can’t wait to get back to Mexico. I say let’s make it so that they never had the opportunity to choose. Unless they go through the proper channels. Build the damn fence.
This story served to remind me of why McCain should never sit in the Oval Office.
When is this arrogance of our politicians going to stop? Close the border and deport these illegals. We can’t take anymore of this garbage. Los Angeles is a nasty place to live and it just gets worse with Senor La Raza as the Mayor. Sanctuary city everywhere. Hardly any English is spoken in this city. Disgusting.
This case will get little or no air time in the MSM. Ever since the N.J. slayings the media has stopped reporting on the immigration status of criminals.
I would like to see someone make a documentary about criminal activity by Illegal aliens. Here in northern Va. we have a serial rapist of hispanic descent on the loose, and i’m sure when he is caught we will find out that he’s illegal also.
We also have a very large number of MS13 gang members in the area. McCain voted against a bill that would have barred Gang members from ever becoming citizens.We have got to build the fence and start enforcing the laws.
Every one who voted for McCain-Kennedy needs to be voted out of office.
Yes, I also would like to know why McCain (whose popularity dived in Iowa after shamnesty and he didn’t do much) is making a resurgence. How can people forget???
I wonder, just what is his “acceptable number” for child rape? He goes on.
What precisely is irrational about expecting those who wish to enter our country to do so legally?
Now that’s one thing he got right.
Folks the MSM is doing its damnedest to convince voters that the real conservatives are going to quit the race because they are broke and know they can’t win …
When regarding McCain and his reported “resurgence” … I would simply remind others to “consider the source” of those “resurgence” stories …
The MSM is doing its damnedest to convince the voters that the real conservatives are going to quit the race because they are broke and know they can’t win …
They are pushing McCain and Huckabee mostly at the moment because they want to try to manipulate the selection for the GOP in the direction of those that they feel are most likely to lose to Hillary or Obama in the general election …
When it comes to politics …
Polls, pundits, prognisticators and promises are the stuff of losers … not the stuff of the American people as a whole …
Do not let the MSM get away with these biased reports and poll numbers … stick by your preferred candidates …
Papademetriou is an open-borders advocate. I’m familiar with his work on Japan’s, (where, incidentally, the immigration system is extremely racist, not just Lindsey Grahamnesty style “racist.”) so I wouldn’t be surprised that he tends to see everyone else’s border issues in that frame of reference.
What surprises me the most about this story is that the police admit that they tracked this guy to his house, yet I didn’t see anywhere in the article where they were accused of stalking him…
/sarc
Amen to that.
Go Fred 08.
The MSM are going to protect McCain because he’s there darling candidate for the GOP, why would they want to hurt his chance’s reporting these breach’s in his own state?
This is McCain’s own state and still has his attitude of illegal alien’s. Why do these people keep electing this RINO. I think I just answered my own question.
That product of the turd world looks just like the illegal alien I performed an ultrasound exam on last week.
Maybe, we need to secure the southern border, and deport any illegal alien that is found. I saw a lot of them marching just the other day. Start there.
It will take a national rebellion OR an overthrow of the government to get this illegal invasion stopped.
Either we stop giving our money to the government…..we need the majority to do this….OR ….we have a civil war.
Take your pick.
What about the employer?? Sue him for all he’s got for harboring an illegal alien. Maybe a few multi-million dollar decisions might wake up unscrupulous employers.
And while we’re at it, we need only 46 more states to join the program.
And have you seen the village brothel for illegal aliens in the suburbs of San Diego? You can find it right next to the village snack shops and the village chapel, where Sunday Mass is held. Hillary was so right: “It takes a village” to harbor illegal aliens.
I see that this news was again missed by my local newspaper (big surprise there), but I’m always happy to send these columns on to them. I figure if I hammer ‘em enough, just maybe they’ll get half a clue that there are quite a few illegals who really AREN’T here ‘just to do the jobs Americans won’t do.’
Also, not to lessen the seriousness of these crimes nor the discussion, I want to know exactly what kind of “heavy equipment operator” this coward was. My spouse was a professional operating engineer, then a grading superintendent for a combined total of 33 years when he retired after having moved and/or overseen the moving of tons of dirt on some of the toughest jobs throughout Southern California. How did this joker in Arizona even GET a job in this field and what was his background?
We read or hear stories like this nearly every day, yet the politicians continue their pandering to the open-borders folks. It’s simply mindboggling.
Secure the border. Enforce the law. Stop the madness.
Deport the criminal illegal aliens first. Identify them. What to do when their are identified sneaking back into our country? Shoot to kill so these type people don’t kill any more innocent US citizens.
