Rogers (AP) - Immigration officials have deported a 12-year-old boy who confessed earlier this year to raping an 8-year-old female relative. The family of the boy, whose name has not been identified, was also detained. Congressman John Boozman says that federal immigration and Customs Enforcement agents began investigating the family last week. Boozman says he notified immigration officials after a Rogers school official told him about the situation. The boy was taken into juvenile custody in August after Rogers police heard about the incident. On November 27th, Benton Country Circuit Judge Jay Finch ordered two years probation and outpatient individual and family counseling for the boy after he confessed to the rape.Rogers Mayor Steve Womack says the family, including the boy, his three siblings and parents were taken into custody early Thursday. This is the first known case of an adjudicated delinquent in Benton County being deported because of a crime.
