A Bolivian national in the country illegally stands accused of brutally beating and raping a woman in Kearney, New Jersey while telling her “he needed to kill her.”

Police arrested 34-year-old Richard A. Perez-Andia was arrested and arraigned Monday on charges of attempted murder, aggravated sexual assault, aggravated assault, criminal restraint and other charges for a recent attack on a woman he was dating, NJ.com reports.

“The complaint says he knelt on the woman’s chest to prevent her from escaping as he continuously struck her, causing injuries including a fractured eye socket,” according to the news site. Perez-Andia, an illegal immigrant from Bolivia, is also “charged with making terroristic threats for telling the woman he had to kill her while choking her, the complaint says.”

Perez-Andia was cuffed and appeared in street clothes during a hearing in Central Judicial Processing court in Jersey City Monday. Hudson County Superior Court Judge Mark Nelson spoke through a Spanish translator to set Perez-Andia’s bond at $300,000, forbid him from contacting the victim, and force him to surrender travel documents.

Officials confirmed for the court that Perez-Andia is an illegal immigrant from Bolivia.

The victim’s statement and her documented injuries provided the probable cause for his arrest.

“A CJP official said Perez-Andia makes too much money to qualify for a public defender,” NJ.com reports. “When asked by CJP Judge Margaret Marley if he wanted the Bolivian embassy notified of his arrest, Perez-Andia said he would decide after speaking to an attorney.”

The alleged rape in New Jersey is only the latest in a seemingly daily barrage of media reports highlighting illegal immigrants arrested for heinous crimes in recent months.

A Mexican national with four drunken driving offenses was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs officials just last week.

In July, an illegal alien in Pennsylvania was accused of groping women’s breasts at a Wayne nail salon, another was charged in a fatal hit-and-run in New Jersey in June, and numerous others have been convicted of rape, murder, child sex abuse and numerous other crimes so far this year.

Also this summer, a Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General investigation into the stabbing murder of a 25-year-old Connecticut woman by an illegal immigrant from Haiti showed that ICE officials struggle to keep track of and deport illegals already convicted of crimes, The American Mirror reports.

“The caseloads of deportation officers in the field make personalized follow-up with the aliens under their supervision functionally impossible,” the report said. “At ICE Newark, for example, there are between three and four (deportation officers) assigned to approximately 37,000 released aliens.

Border patrol officers, meanwhile, are reporting another massive surge of illegal immigrants coming across the border in 2016.
