In a case that highlights the danger and absurdity of sanctuary city and soft-on-crime policies in New York City, a 31-year-old transgender illegal alien from Colombia pleaded guilty Tuesday to raping a 14-year-old boy in a Manhattan bodega bathroom but will serve no additional jail time.
Nicol Alexandra Contreras-Suarez, a biological male who dresses up as a woman, has pleaded guilty to second-degree rape in Manhattan Supreme Court for the sexual assault of the boy inside the restroom of a bodega across the street from Thomas Jefferson Park in East Harlem last year.
According to the New York Post, Contreras-Suarez followed the 14-year-old victim into the bodega bathroom and raped him.
The boy was able to leave the bathroom afterward and flag down bystanders, who alerted police.
Contreras-Suarez was arrested the next day.
However, under the plea deal struck by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, Contreras-Suarez was promised a sentence of just six months in jail, time he has already served while awaiting trial.
The illegal alien rapist is scheduled to be sentenced on April 27, at which point he could be released unless federal immigration authorities take him into custody for deportation.
A spokesperson for the Manhattan DA’s Office confirmed the resolution was reached “in close consultation with the victim’s family” to spare the teenager from having to testify before a grand jury or at a full trial, according to the Post report.
The office added in a statement, “We expect the defendant to remain detained and be deported following sentencing, due to the felony conviction.”
ICE has a detainer in place for Contreras-Suarez and did not respond to The Post’s requests for comment on the plea outcome.
Contreras-Suarez illegally entered the United States in March 2023 and was released into the country by Customs and Border Protection, according to a Department of Homeland Security press release.
He later racked up warrants in Massachusetts for armed robbery, prostitution, and assault with a dangerous weapon.
Due to sanctuary policies in Massachusetts, the sexual predator was released and went on to commit the New York rape.
“This creep should’ve never been released into our country,” said then-DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin in a press release last summer. “Thanks to the failed sanctuary policies and Biden’s open-border agenda, this serial criminal was freed to prey on innocent American children – but that ends now. ICE will not allow predators like Contreras-Suarez to terrorize American citizens.”
ICE lodged a formal immigration detainer with Manhattan Central Booking in February 2025, shortly after the bodega rape.
Contreras-Suarez has been held at Rikers Island pending the outcome of the case.
The Gateway Pundit will continue to provide updates on this case, including what happens at the April 27 sentencing and any action by ICE.
