This case highlights a growing concern over migrant crime in the state of Massachusetts, particularly among Haitian nationals.

In recent months, the state has seen multiple high-profile arrests of Haitian migrants accused of serious offenses.

Earlier this month, a Haitian migrant who entered the U.S. in June 2023 through the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan and Venezuelan (CHNV) mass parole program, was arrested in Massachusetts for allegedly molesting a 10-year-old boy in his neighborhood. The suspect, identified as 18-year-old Akim Marc Desire, is currently in ICE custody after being apprehended by police in Mansfield, MA, located about 45 minutes south of Boston. Desire is facing charges of indecent assault and battery on a child under 14.

In March, another Haitian national named Cory Alvarez was charged with aggravated child rape after prosecutors accused him of raping a 15-year-old girl at a migrant hotel in Rockland, MA. Alvarez, who also entered the U.S. in June 2023 through the same mass parole program, was supposed to stay with his designated sponsor in New Jersey. However, he somehow ended up at a family migrant shelter near Boston as a single adult male, where the alleged assault took place. Alvarez is currently in ICE custody.

These incidents have made the CHNV program face increasing criticism as hundreds of thousands of migrants have been allowed to enter the U.S. under a form of de facto amnesty. In fact, more than 350,000 asylum cases have been terminated “without a decision on the merits of their asylum claim.”
