Chicago man gets prison term for plan to molest Ensenada boys
On August 11th, David Mayer, 50, from Chicago was sentenced to more than three years in prison. (Read story from the San Diego Union-Tribune.) He was arrested with six other men in February, planning to travel to Ensenada to molest boys.
Crossing international borders with the intent of molesting children is a violation of U.S. law. Mayer pleaded guilty to a charge of conducting illegal interstate commerce for the purpose of illicit sex.
This story both sickens and encourages me. The plan of seven men to travel to Mexico to molest vulnerable boys is very disturbing. However, I am encouraged that they were caught and stopped by the FBI.
The work of El Sauzal and other orphanages in Mexico is vital to the protection of vulnerable children. They care for children off the streets, the abandoned, abused and wounded. These are children at risk. Thank you so much for your prayers and support of El Sauzal Orphanage. Children are being protected because of your help.
