According to officials, Campos has lived in Franklin for the past 20 years and was a frequent around nearby school playgrounds. That’s where police say he would lure children to play on his team.
A spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement told Fox News Digital that an immigration detainer was issued for Campos on July 10, one day after police announced his arrest.
Campos also entered the United States illegally at an unknown date and location, without any inspection by immigration officials, according to a law enforcement source.
Police said after Campos gained trust from the children, he would invite them over to his home, where he’s accused of drugging and raping them.
Detectives also believe that the children were in “such an unconscious state” that they may not even know that they’re victims.
