波多黎各男子性剥削2岁女儿获刑260个月：判监21年8个月 另加20年监管释放
美国司法部（DOJ）波多黎各区检察官办公室宣布，联邦地区法官 Aida Delgado Colón 于10月21日在 San Juan 判处 Ángel Javier Santos-Méndez 260个月监禁，即21年8个月，其后另加20年监管释放。Santos-Méndez 现年34岁，来自波多黎各 Caguas，因针对一名未成年受害者的儿童剥削指控被判刑。
据检察官办公室介绍，Santos-Méndez 于2025年10月30日被大陪审团起诉，2025年11月5日被捕，并于2026年4月16日认罪。法院文件显示，2025年9月22日，他利用自己2岁的女儿实施性露骨行为，以制作相关影像，影像由其手机摄制。国土安全调查局（HSI）波多黎各打击儿童犯罪工作组接到波多黎各警察局提供的线索后展开调查，并促成其被捕与起诉。
波多黎各区代理联邦检察官 Héctor Ramírez-Carbó 表示，儿童性虐待是伤害最无辜者的恶劣犯罪行为，这项判决虽无法弥补已经造成的伤害，但能防止被告再伤害他人，并为受害者伸张正义。HSI San Juan 代理主管 Yariel Ramos 表示，HSI 将持续追查侵害儿童者并追究其责任。
此案由国土安全调查局在波多黎各警察局协作下调查，助理联邦检察官 Elba Gorbea 负责起诉。案件属于司法部2006年发起的全国性「守护童年计划」（Project Safe Childhood）的一部分，该计划统筹联邦、州与地方资源，打击儿童性剥削与虐待。
Puerto Rico Man Sentenced to 260 Months for Sexually Exploiting His 2-Year-Old Daughter
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Puerto Rico announced that on October 21, 2026, U.S. District Court Judge Aida Delgado Colón sentenced Ángel Javier Santos-Méndez to 260 months in prison — 21 years and eight months — followed by 20 years of supervised release, for child exploitation charges against a female minor victim. Santos-Méndez, 34, is from Caguas, Puerto Rico.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Santos-Méndez was indicted on October 30, 2025, arrested on November 5, 2025, and pleaded guilty on April 16, 2026. Court documents state that on September 22, 2025, he employed, used and coerced his 2-year-old daughter to engage in sexually explicit conduct for the purpose of producing visual depictions, using his cellular device. Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Puerto Rico's Crimes Against Children Task Force received information from the Police of Puerto Rico regarding the allegations, and the investigation led to his arrest and prosecution.
"Child sexual abuse is a depraved criminal act that harms the most innocent among us," said Héctor Ramírez-Carbó, Acting United States Attorney for the District of Puerto Rico, adding that while the prosecution cannot undo the damage, the sentence prevents further harm and provides the victim justice. Yariel Ramos, Acting Special Agent in Charge of HSI San Juan, said HSI will relentlessly pursue offenders who exploit children.
Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case with the collaboration of the Puerto Rico Police Department, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Elba Gorbea prosecuted the case. The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, the Department of Justice's nationwide initiative, launched in May 2006, to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse.
