Navarrete-Juarez sexually abused a girl who was between nine and 10 years old and filmed it, according to court documents.
The FBI’s Cincinnati division investigated child sexual abuse material on the internet that featured Navarrete-Juarez. Investigators say they were able to recognize Navarrete-Juarez in multiple videos because of his face, distinctive tattoos, and the apartment in the background of the videos.
The US Attorney’s Office says Navarrete-Juarez does not have a legal status in the United States.
