A suspected illegal alien was recently arrested after she sent nude photos to a 12-year-old Texas boy, authorities said.
Officials arrested and charged Susanna Mendoza with solicitation of a minor after the boy’s parents contacted the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office (JCSO), according to a press release. Mendoza, 26, allegedly sent him nude images and vulgar text messages to try and entice him. The boy has since turned 13.
The JCSO opened an investigation, which led to Mendoza’s arrest. The agency believed Mendoza was in the U.S. illegally because she allegedly threatened to flee the U.S. The sheriff’s office said they were going to contact federal authorities regarding the matter.

The alleged crime follows the arrests of more than 150 illegal alien sex offenders across the state of Florida as part of Operation Dirtbag, an initiative led by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), according to a Nov. 13 press release from DHS. “The operation targeted child predators, rapists, and violent criminal illegal aliens with convictions including sexual assault of minors, rape, lewd and lascivious conduct, child exploitation, battery, and attempted homicide,” the department said.
Among the individuals arrested were Andrii Kurbatov, an illegal alien from Ukraine found guilty of receipt and possession of child sexual abuse material and Frank Rene Gacita Borges, an illegal alien from Cuba found guilty of sexual battery of a minor, according to DHS.
The Daily Caller contacted the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), neither of whom immediately commented.
