Share this @internewscast.com

An undocumented immigrant suspected of serial rape and linked to up to 17 victims in Nevada has opted out of a plea agreement, prompting prosecutors to refile several charges. 

Mexican national, Carlos Nava, 49, is now facing trial in Las Vegas on accusations of violent sexual assaults spanning nearly two decades.

He also repeatedly re-entered the U.S. illegally despite being deported at least eight times since 2002. 

The Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had earlier confirmed to 8 News Now that this was despite past deportations and charges for battery and domestic violence. His most recent deportation occurred in 2020.

Barker further mentioned that Las Vegas Metropolitan Police discovered 17 pairs of underwear “neatly folded and stored in a backpack, which also contained latex gloves and was secured with a rubber band.”

According to a court docket obtained by Fox News Digital, Nava had been facing a string of charges dating back to 2010. 

Las Vegas police records further reveal that officers were searching for more assault victims in 2022, and after one event, Nava was seen in a white Ford truck.

Nava remains in custody at the Clark County Detention Center. A new trial date is expected to be scheduled after his next court appearance on Oct. 9.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Clark County District Attorney’s Office for further information.
