Fermisha Rose learned this week that the suspect is not a U.S. citizen, and she now believes justice means deportation.
Her daughter's case is central: Rose says her daughter, who was 13 at the time, met a man who was 29, Jordan Castillo Chavez. Rose discovered details by looking through her daughter's phone and seeing messages and photos indicating someone was coming to pick up her daughter. She recalls, “There were photos. There were messages that indicated he was coming to pick her up, and I immediately just dropped. I fainted. This is not happening right now.”
In March, Pineville police charged Castillo Chavez with indecent liberties and other sex-related charges. He has since bonded out. This week, Customs and Border Protection named Castillo Chavez of Costa Rica as one of the worst of the worst criminal legal aliens, blaming his release on a failed ICE detainer.
Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office was asked to respond. They said ICE had requested advance notification of Castillo Chavez’s release but did not issue an ICE detainer. The sheriff’s office explained they did not notify ICE when he bonded out because they weren’t legally required to do so.
Rose also reflects on her own family history, noting that her father committed a crime in the United States and was deported years ago. She says she understands the impact and believes the same outcome should apply to Castillo Chavez.
The discussion includes Rose’s deteriorating sense of safety and justice: “This is serious.” and “We need justice. He needs to go, and he needs to enforce it.”
