An illegal immigrant charged with sexually molesting a child in the Bay Area was arrested near Calexico after trying to sneak back in the United States from Mexico, authorities said Tuesday.

The man was arrested Sunday nine miles west of Calexico with four other immigrants who had entered the U.S. illegally, the Department of Homeland Security said. His name and age were not released.

A records check by federal officers showed that the man was wanted on an outstanding warrant in Marin County on a charge of a lewd and lascivious act with a child under 14, the department said.

The man was being held by the Imperial County Sheriff’s Department pending extradition to Marin County, according to the department. The four others were processed and returned to Mexico.

There’s nothing I can personally do about our borders, that’s the responsibility of the government. All that was within my own power, as the single father of a daughter, was protect my own child and if more parents accepted that responsibility instead of complaining that the government isn’t doing their parenting for them there would be a lot fewer opportunities for the child molesters to find random victims.
