RIVERSIDE, Calif. (CNS) -- A preliminary hearing is scheduled later this
month for a 65-year-old Riverside man accused of sexually molesting three
children at his wife's daycare center.

Antonio Robles Chavez was arrested last week following a Riverside Police
Department investigation.

Chavez is charged with two counts of lewd acts on a child under 14 years
old, as well as sentence-enhancing allegations of taking advantage of a
position of trust and targeting vulnerable victims.

He pleaded not guilty during an arraignment Tuesday before Riverside
County Superior Court Judge Gary Polk, who tentatively scheduled a
preliminary hearing for July 19 at the Riverside Hall of Justice. The
hearing would determine whether there's sufficient evidence to bound the
defendant over for trial.

Chavez is being held in lieu of $1 million bail at the Smith Correctional
Facility in Banning.

According to Riverside police spokesman Officer Ryan Railsback, the
department's Sexual Assault-Child Abuse unit initiated an investigation on
July 2 after receiving reports that a girl at Chavez Family Daycare, owned
and operated by the defendant's wife, allegedly had been groped.

"Detectives contacted other families that utilize Chavez Family Daycare,
located in the (18400 block) of Blue Sky Street,'' Railsback said.
"Through their efforts, they determined two other children had also been
sexually abused by Chavez within the past three years while attending the
daycare, but never disclosed the crimes.''

None of the alleged victims' identities were disclosed.

Chavez was taken into custody without incident on July 3.

The daycare has been licensed by the California Department of Social
Services since 2010 and is based at the Chavez family home. Detectives
have filed a complaint seeking suspension of operations, according to
Railsback.

He said SACA investigators believe there may be other victims, and anyone
with information was asked to contact the unit at 951-353-7945.

The defendant has no documented prior felony convictions in Riverside
County.

No one said that immigrants NEVER commited crimes - but the statistics show
that they commit LESS THAN White citizens.

Do not that last line: "no documented prior felony convictions". You'd do
much better containing your hate.
