FORT WORTH -- A convicted sex offender who was deported to Mexico in 2003 was arrested Wednesday in Fort Worth after authorities learned he had returned to Tarrant County.
Hilario Soto-Hernandez, 41, was living in the 1700 block of Denver Avenue and working at a restaurant in Justin, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Convicted felons who re-enter the United States after being deported can be sentenced to as much as 20 years in prison.
Soto-Hernandez was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child in 1995. He molested a 7-year-old girl for more than six months while she and her mother lived at his Fort Worth home, according to the immigration agency.
Soto-Hernandez was sentenced to 10 years' deferred adjudication. After years of appealing a deportation order, he was sent from the country in December 2003, said Carl Rusnok, an agency spokesman.
In July, authorities learned that Soto-Hernandez had returned. The Safe City Commission CrimeStoppers included Soto-Hernandez on the July 22 Most Wanted list, and an anonymous tip led the Tarrant County Sheriff's Department to his home and work addresses.
The tipster will receive a $1,000 reward, authorities said.
Soto-Hernandez is not a suspect in any new molestation cases, although "our investigators will probably review their open cases," said Terry Grisham, a spokesman for the Sheriff's Department.
Fort Worth sex crimes detectives could not be reached for comment Thursday.

Burger King? McDonald's? Chuck E. Cheese?
Time to prosecute to the max and send a message.
Send him up.
Of course I can believe it. These little bastards think America is their country now. To run amuck in and do what they please. Get drunker than shit and drive that way. Blame Bill Clinton and George Bush for making our borders into joke
Deport him again, but leave his Charlie hanging on the barb wire.
If I posted what I thought should be done with this scum, I’d be banned.
That said, WTH is wrong with these women who move in with deadbeats like that and endanger their children? IMO, she should be held responsible somehow.
Burger King? McDonald's? Chuck E. Cheese?
Most likely working at a friend's Mexican restaurant. I never patronize Mexican places. Not a big fan of the food
Guess he wants to go to Texas pound-me-in-the-a$$ state prison.
Guess he wants to go to Texas pound-ya-in-the-a$$ state prison.
This crapola is happening everyday, now even the mexican criminals have more US *rights* than our home grown criminals...
In IL the illegal child molesters can plead guilty, then they are *offered* self deportation rather than serve the US jail time...(they might have to *promise* not to re-enter, also)
and the latest news from the AZ border tells us the mexican pot smugglers DO NOT get prosecuted for under 500 lbs.....seems there's no federal money to handle all the cases.
Why is this possible?
Or, of course, he can be turned loose on his own recognizance just in time to joint Saturday’s illegal alien protest against American injustice.
Time to cull the herd.
Why is this possible?
Yeah, I noticed that too, the POS fought his deportation for 8 years...
Any "immigration reform" should include a fast "auto-deport" (w/no appeals) for scumbags like this.
Chip them and brand a D on their foreheads prior to deportation.

Thank you, President Bush, RINO turncoats in the Senate, and Dim traitors everywhere. You must be really proud of yourselves /sarc
