N.H. ICE Agents Arrest Laotian Man Who Raped Teenage Girl

MANCHESTER, N.H. — A 44-year-old predator convicted of raping a child in Massachusettes was arrested June 7 by ICE special agents.

Inthavong Somsy, a citizen of Laos, pleaded guilty in a Middlesex superior court in Massachusetts to raping a child in February 1990. The victim was under the age of 16 at the time. Somsy received a one-year sentence and served six months.

ICE arrested Somsy after identifying him as a predator and initiated removal proceedings against him based upon his criminal conviction. He is currently in ICE custody at the Rockingham County (N.H.) Jail.

“Crimes against children are reprehensible,” said Robin M. Avers, Special Agent-in-Charge of ICE in New England. “ICE is committed to pursuing predators who are a public safety threat to our society’s most vulnerable- our children- and removing these dangerous criminals from the U.S.”

This arrest is part of a nationwide initiative known as Operation Predator. ICE encourages anyone who wants to report the activity of suspected child predators to call the toll-free ICE hotline at 1-866-DHS-2ICE. Investigators staff this hotline around the clock. Suspected child sexual exploitation or missing children may be reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, and Operation Predator partner, at 1-800-843-5678 or http:/www.cybertipline.com.
