In one of the sickest criminal complaints you could ever read, Honduran citizen WILLIAMS J A MONGE is accused of repeatedly raping a 6-year-old girl in Fitchburg, Wisconsin, leaving her bloodied and in so much pain that she “felt like she was dying/going to die.” There is an ICE detainer on him in the Dane County Jail.
Each day, from Sept. 25 through the presidential election, we tell you about a non-citizen currently in a Wisconsin jail who is accused of committing a horrific crime. ICE placed immigration detainers on each of them. We are highlighting a range of serious crimes.
ICE detainers require ICE to demonstrate that it has determined “that probable cause exists that the subject is a removable alien.” The media tends to censor illegal immigrant crimes. We would note that the Dane County Jail does not honor all ICE detainers (but does honor some) and is listed as a noncooperative jurisdiction by ICE.
Right now, the case of a non-citizen Venezuelan gang member accused of sexually assaulting a teen and woman in Prairie Du Chien has grabbed the public’s attention. It’s not an outlier. Real victims, communities, and taxpayers are paying the price of weak Biden/Harris border policies, which are abetted by politicians like U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin. Every state is a border state.
FILE #4
The Defendant: WILLIAMS J A MONGE
The Jail: Dane County, Wisconsin
The Charges: Repeated Sexual Assault of Same Child (At Least 3 Violations of 1st Degree Sexual Assault)
Date of Offense: Past Charges in Wisconsin: None
Past Charges in Wisconsin: None
The Details: Be forewarned that the details in this criminal complaint are sickening beyond words.
The victim was 6 years old when the assaults started, according to the criminal complaint. They spanned two years. The criminal complaint made the following accusations:
On April 28, a person walked into the City of Fitchburg Police Department to report a sexual assault of a child. They reported “inappropriate touching of a child” at a home in Fitchburg. The grandmother made the report. Monge was the child’s stepfather.
The girl told the grandmother that the defendant has been having both vaginal and anal sex with her for two years, causing “a lot of bleeding.” She stated that she was in so much pain she “felt like she was dying/going to die” and she would bite her mouth from the large amount of pain.
He threatened to kill her biological mother if she told anyone. An officer indicated that it’s believed the defendant “is a flight risk due to him having Honduras citizenship.”
The mother said she started dating the defendant in 2021 and living with him in 2022.
In an interview with an expert, the child stated that her mom’s boyfriend, who came from Honduras, touched her. She said it hurt really bad. He told her not to say anything or he would kill her mom and her grandma. She said he was drunk. One time she was in so much pain that she bit her lips and ended up cutting them. At one point the child put her bloody underwear in the garbage.
She was very fearful of the defendant and fearful to return home, the complaint says.

ICE Detainers Plunge Under Biden-Harris
Illegal immigrants committing crimes is not a story that the corporate media and Vice President Kamala Harris want to tell, especially as border crossings have surged.
ICE revealed that this month that “there were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE’s national docket which includes those detained by ICE and on the agency’s non-detained docket.” Of that, more than 13,000 are convicted murderers.
Under Biden/Harris, the number of U.S Border Patrol “encounters with migrants crossing into the United States from Mexico in December 2023” hit “the highest monthly total on record,” according to Pew Research Center.
The Biden administration issued just under 300,000 detainers from 2021 through the first quarter of 2024, a rising number, according to Trac Immigration, a project of Syracuse University. However, “overall 50 percent more ICE detainers were issued during the Trump presidency (FY 2017 – FY 2020),” Trac says.
Detainers “are critical for ICE to be able to identify and ultimately remove criminal aliens who are currently in federal, state or local custody,” ICE says. ICE detainers ask local law enforcement to hold a non-citizen inmate for 48 hours before release into the community so ICE can pick them up.
Inmates with detainers are only the people that ICE discovers and where ICE decides to act. Some jails, such as Dane County’s, don’t honor all ICE detainers and don’t give ICE 48 hours to pick up the inmates before release. At the other end of the spectrum stands a jail like Waukesha County, where the sheriff received federal immigration authority through a program called 287g.
ICE detainers “are often used as one indicator of the intensity of what is called ‘interior enforcement’ in contrast to ‘border enforcement,’ Trac writes.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “has long claimed that detainers, often called ‘immigration holds,’ are an essential tool needed to apprehend and deport individuals not authorized to remain in the U.S.,” the site says. “Detainers are supposed to be targeted at noncitizens who have committed crimes here in the U.S.”
In addition, the U.S. Border Patrol has arrested more than 15,000 criminal non-citizens in 2024 alone, including 27 murderers and 202 people for sexual offenses. But those are just the people they catch.
From 2006 to 2023, ICE placed detainers on more than 14,000 non-citizens living in Wisconsin, Trac says.
The first year of Biden-Harris saw the lowest numbers of ICE detainers issued since at least 2006. The Milwaukee and Dane County Jails had the most ICE detainers issued of any jurisdictions in Wisconsin during the time frame below, according to Trac.
The corporate media tend to focus on studies that show illegal immigrants commit crimes at a lower rate than non-citizens or they focus mostly on the other side of the coin – say, illegal immigrants whose labor helps keep dairy farms alive. The citizens who committed crimes had a right to be here; illegal immigrants did not. A tougher border policy might have prevented illegal immigrant crimes from occurring in the first place. The stories are worth telling.
“Although no federal law requires cooperation with ICE, many state and local laws, and sometimes court rulings, regulate compliance with ICE detainers,” The Immigrant Legal Resource Center says. Some states have made compliance mandatory, but Wisconsin is not one of them.
“Legally, the requirement of probable cause means ICE can only issue a detainer against (a) a noncitizen, who (b) is already ‘removable.’ A removable noncitizen is someone who can be put in removal proceedings for possible deportation,” the center says.
“ICE describes a detainer as a request to a ‘law enforcement agency to notify ICE before a removable individual is released from custody and to maintain custody of the noncitizen for a brief period so that ICE can take custody of that person,'” Trac says.
