Mother of 10-Year-Old Rape Victim Defends Illegal Alien Charged with Raping Daughter

The mother of the 10-year-old girl who reportedly had an abortion in Indiana after a 27-year-old illegal alien raped her, is defending the man, stating, “Everything they are saying against him is a lie,” Telemundo reported Thursday.

The woman, who claims to be the mother of the 10-year-old girl the Indianapolis Star reported to have been raped and then referred by an Ohio “child abuse doctor” to Indiana abortion activist Dr. Caitlin Bernard for an abortion, said she did not file criminal charges against Gerson Fuentes, who was arrested and admitted he had raped the girl on at least two occasions when she was nine years of age.

The young girl’s mother reportedly did not give her name to the Telemundo interviewer and did not want to be on camera.

She said her daughter is “fine” and defended Fuentes, who comes from Guatemala.

According to the Columbus Dispatch, the girl’s mother referred her daughter to Franklin County Children Services on June 22, which, in turn, informed Columbus Police.

Det. Jeffrey Huhn, who testified Wednesday at Fuentes’ arraignment, said on June 30, the girl underwent a medical abortion in Indianapolis.

However, as late as Monday evening, Ohio Attorney General David Yost told Fox News there was no evidence a 10-year-old girl in his state had been raped, become pregnant, and traveled to Indiana for an abortion.

“Not a whisper,” Yost said. “We have a decentralized law enforcement system in Ohio, but we have regular contact with prosecutors and local police and sheriffs. Not a whisper anywhere.”

Telemundo reported the young girl was forced to travel to Indiana for her abortion because Ohio’s Heartbeat law, in place after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, banned abortions after six weeks. It was reported the girl was several weeks beyond the six-week limit.

Many in the pro-abortion media repeated that narrative, but Yost told Fox News that claim is untrue.

“Ohio’s Heartbeat law has a medical emergency exception, broader than just the life of the mother,” the attorney general asserted. “This young girl, if she exists and if this horrible thing actually happened to her – it breaks my heart to think about it – she did not have to leave Ohio to find treatment.”

“This portion of a broader interview sheds significant light on the familial dynamics of this case, and further vindicates all skepticism over how the story broke and was handled,” said director of Media Research Center (MRC) Latino Jorge Bonilla about the Telemundo interview on social media.

“This appears to confirm my thesis of a domestic situation wherein the confessed rapist is also the paramour of the victim’s mother (other familial relation is possible but less likely),” he noted. “Unfortunately, I saw many such cases while working as a court interpreter.”

Bonilla continued his analysis:

The mother’s distressed defense of the rapist suggests that

  • a: She is also here illegally and fears deportation
  • b: The defendant is the family’s sole source of income
  • c: There is a likelihood of other children in the home
  • d: Mom is exposed to removal of the children under dependency proceedings (failure to protect). Has there been such a filing yet and if not why not?

Bonilla added several other questions to consider:

  • What was the time gap between the initial reporting of the rape and the filing of criminal charges?
  • Why did the referring abortion provider not report the rape to authorities?
  • Was the child forced to live with her rapist in furtherance of an abortion narrative?
  • Was the child compelled to stay quiet until after news of the abortion was leaked to the media? If so, how so?
  • Was criminal reporting of the rape of a Latina girl suppressed or delayed in furtherance of a political agenda?

The case of the 10-year-old girl went viral after abortion activist Bernard used her story to target pro-life states that have chosen to return to or enact abortion restrictions or bans per the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization last month.

Despite numerous inquiries into what many saw as a vague story, Bernard did not share any further details, including whether or not she or her Ohio colleague made a report of the alleged rape to law enforcement or child protective services.

Other pro-abortion media and, ultimately, Joe Biden himself, used the story of the alleged rape of the young girl to attempt to shame states with abortion restrictions or bans following the Court’s decision. Biden repeated the claim in an effort to justify his executive order attempting to undermine that ruling.
