The Case of the Illegal Alien Who Brutally Assaulted a Teenage Girl in Alabama

WASHINGTON, D.C.- Today, the House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement released an interim reportregarding Grevi Geovanni Rivera Zavala, an illegal criminal alien from Honduras who brutally assaulted a teenage girl in Prattville, Alabama.

Despite being expelled under Title 42 authority in November 2021, Rivera Zavala re-entered the U.S. undetected during the Biden-Harris Administration. Just months later, in May 2023, he committed a violent assault on a young girl in a restaurant bathroom. The report also reveals that Rivera Zavala had entered the U.S. as a "gotaway," and it was only through the Committee's requests and investigation that crucial information about his criminal history, including a domestic violence arrest in Honduras, was uncovered.

For 15 months, President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Senate Democrats have failed to consider the House-passed H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act of 2023, despite rapidly deteriorating conditions at the border and within the country. To secure America, the Senate must pass H.R. 2, and President Biden must sign it into law. Meanwhile, the Committee and Subcommittee will continue to conduct rigorous oversight and push for legislative reforms to address the shortcomings in the Biden-Harris Administration's immigration policies.

"Today, the House Judiciary Committee learned that an illegal who raped a 14-year-old girl in a restaurant bathroom in Prattville came into the United States as a gotaway in 2021, even with a criminal record of domestic violence in his home country.He is just one of the more than 600,000 and counting criminal illegals that the Biden-Harris Administration has welcomed into our country. Thanks to their reprehensible policies, not only is this young lady's life forever changed, every town is a border town, and no American family is safe,"
said Congressman Barry Moore (R-AL).
