CHICAGO – A United States Customs and Border Protection officer has been indicted on federal civil rights charges for allegedly sexually assaulting and robbing multiple women in the Chicago suburbs, Grimy Times has learned.

Luis Uribe, 44, of Pingree Grove, Illinois, was arrested this morning and pleaded not guilty during his arraignment this afternoon in federal court. U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri L. Holleb Hotaling scheduled a detention hearing for December 15, 2025, at 1:30 p.m.

The indictment, announced by Andrew S. Boutros, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, Douglas S. DePodesta, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Field Office of the FBI, and Erin Silk, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Midwest Region of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Office of Inspector General, accuses Uribe of acting under color of law when he sexually assaulted and robbed two women.

According to the indictment, Uribe performed both customs and immigration duties for CBP in the Chicago area and had the authority to carry a firearm and make arrests for felony and other relevant offenses. The indictment states that the robberies, sexual assaults, and attempted sexual assaults occurred in 2022 in Schaumburg, Illinois, and Naperville, Illinois.

If convicted of the charges in the indictment, Uribe faces a mandatory minimum sentence of seven years in federal prison and a maximum of life. The public is reminded that an indictment is not evidence of guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and entitled to a fair trial at which the government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
