Suspect of rape of 5-year-old girl entered country illegally

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman stood with Police Chief Patrick Ryder to announce the arrest of a 27-year-old boy accused of raping a 5-year-old girl.

According to police, Wilson Castillo Diaz allegedly committed the crime on October 16.

Police say the suspect has been in the United States illegally since entering the country in 2014 at the age of 16.

“This 27-year-old man didn’t wake up one day and say, ‘I’m going to rape a five-year-old girl,’ so we believe there are more victims,” ​​Nassau County Police Chief Patrick Ryder said.

The police are calling on other potential victims to come forward.
