The Salvador man was detained in Philadelphia by US immigration and customs enforcement because he wanted a sex crime involving minors in his home country.
On January 31, Salvador's law enforcement removed Francisco Javier Melende Stoles, which had been wanted by Salvador's law enforcement for raping minors and sexual harassment.
“The removal of Francisco Javier Melendez Torres, a dangerous criminal alien who wanted worse rape of El Salvador minors, highlights that dangerous people like him would cast on our community. “It's done.”
“ICE is committed to ensuring in the US that dangerous individuals like Melende Stoless cannot find a safe port.”

Melendez Torres was first arrested by the US Border Patrol on February 5, 1986 near Rio Grande, Texas. According to Ice Philadelphia, he received an order indicating the cause of the hearing and notification and charged him with unacceptability. He was released on the same day in the order of recognition.
He was granted a voluntary departure on November 17, 1986 by an immigrant judge in Harlingen, Texas, and was requested to return to El Salvador by December 29, 1986.
He was deported if he failed to leave by that day.
