An 18-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador allegedly groped 12 female classmates at a Virginia high school — and was allowed into the US under the Biden administration.
Israel Flores Ortiz, who is almost 19 but a junior at Fairfax High School, has been charged with nine counts of assault and battery after he was accused of repeatedly creeping up behind the students in crowded hallways and grabbing them between the legs.
Ortiz, who entered the country illegally in 2024, was released under a federal government policy during the Biden administration, according to local outlet 7News.
The teen appeared in court on Friday after his arrest on March 7, where prosecutors alleged that the incidents took place inside the school — located 20 miles outside of Washington, DC — as students were changing classes.
Parents claim that Ortiz’s disturbing behavior had been going on for months.
“There’s a group of about 12 individuals that have reported this assault,” the mother of one alleged victim said. “He just sneakily walked up behind them and put his hand in between their legs.”
The parent stressed the encounters went far beyond horseplay.
“It was not just a butt smack or a butt grab,” she said. “It was a groping of a private area. It had been occurring for several months.”
Police listed Feb. 25 as the official offense date, but parents say students had complained about similar incidents long before that. --->READ MORE HERE

An illegal immigrant high school student who entered the United States in 2024 under the Biden administration now faces nine counts of assault charges after parents in Fairfax County, Va., say he repeatedly groped girls inside school hallways.
Parents of roughly a dozen alleged victims accused 19-year-old Israel Flores Ortiz of approaching girls from behind in school hallways and placing his hands between their legs, moving from the front to the back, according to 7News. The suspect entered the United States in 2024 and was released under policies in place during the Biden administration, 7News Reporter Nick Minock reported.
“This student happens to be in the country illegally. ICE told me that he entered the country in 2024 and was released under the Biden administration. And now he’s charged with assault and battery,” Minock said.
Families say the incidents happened multiple times during the school year before authorities intervened. The suspect is currently being held in jail as the criminal case proceeds. Several parents told WJLA they are furious with Fairfax County Public Schools, accusing administrators of allowing the alleged behavior to continue for months without taking meaningful action. --->READ MORE HERE
