Previously Deported Sex Offender Alien Faces New Charges In Child Assault Case

BEDIAS, TEXAS — The criminal case involving previously deported sex offender Fidel Ramos, 52, has expanded significantly following new indictments and an additional arrest connected to the investigation.

A Grimes County Grand Jury convened on June 26, 2026, and returned indictments charging Ramos with five additional felonies related to the alleged sexual assault of a child. According to the District Attorney’s Office, Ramos is now formally accused of:

• Sexual Assault of a Child CT I — second‑degree felony
• Sexual Assault of a Child CT II — second‑degree felony
• Sexual Assault of a Child CT III — second‑degree felony
• Indecency with a Child by Contact CT I — second‑degree felony
• Indecency with a Child by Contact CT II — second‑degree felony

These charges come in addition to the third‑degree felony Ramos was already facing for Failure to Register as a Sex Offender, stemming from his June 17 arrest.

On July 8, 2026, investigators drafted a probable cause affidavit charging Jamie Ramos with Failure to Report Child Abuse, a Class A misdemeanor. She was taken into custody by the Grimes County Sheriff’s Office on July 10, 2026.

Authorities have not released further details regarding her alleged involvement, citing the sensitive nature of the ongoing child‑abuse investigation.

Ramos was arrested after a multi‑agency operation at a residence on Dick Barnes Loop in Bedias, where investigators located him hiding inside the home. The search warrant was executed as part of a joint investigation led by Constable James Ellis (Pct. 1) and Chief Investigator John Wren into a child‑sexual‑assault report filed earlier that week.

Ramos, who previously served prison time related to a Madison County case for Sexual Assault of a Child before being deported, was found living in Grimes County without registering as required by Texas law. Officers forced entry after Ramos refused to come out, ultimately taking him into custody without reported injuries.

The following day, U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement placed an immigration detainer on him.

The investigation into the alleged sexual assault remains active. Prosecutors emphasize that all defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
