A Border Patrol agent accused of sexually assaulting his then-girlfriend in June 2013 has been found not guilty.
Alejandro Perez was assigned to the Rio Grande Valley Sector when he was arrested on sexual assault charges in 2018, KGBT reports.
His then-girlfriend reported the alleged assault nearly five years after she says he became “sexually aggressive towards her” and refused to stop when she said no.
“Alejandro later admitted to raping her through text but he asked her not to report it because he could lose his job,” the prosecutors alleged in a complaint.
It wasn’t immediately clear whether Perez is still working as a Border Patrol agent. When he was arrested in March 2018, he was assigned to administrative duties.
