A shocking case of child exploitation has come to light in Deming, New Mexico. Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia, a 39-year-old resident, has been accused of producing child pornography. The disturbing allegations were made after a thorough investigation by law enforcement.
According to a criminal complaint, police responded to an incident on May 18, 2020, related to an accusation of sexual abuse of children. Following follow-up interviews, Garcia was arrested on January 26, 2021, on a New Mexico state charge of criminal sexual penetration of the first degree.
A search of Garcia’s cellphone identified two videos as potential child pornography. The videos, from August 26 and 27 of 2019, allegedly show Garcia engaging in sexual conduct with a 12-year-old victim.
The production of child pornography is a serious offense, punishable by law. If convicted, Garcia faces a minimum of 15 years and up to 30 years in prison.
