Man Wanted For Rape, Trafficking, Kidnapping

Posted

SEWARD COUNTY, Kan. - The U.S. Marshals are seeking the public’s help and offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the arrest of a Guatemalan man wanted in Seward County on multiple counts of crimes against children.

Juan Ralios-Batz, who is estimated to be 40 years old, is wanted on three counts of rape of a child, one count of aggravated kidnapping, one count of aggravated human trafficking, and one count of abuse of a child.

Batz and his sister are alleged to have sponsored a 13-year-old unaccompanied child and, over a two-year period, Batz allegedly raped the child and forced the child to do manual labor.

The child eventually became pregnant and has a child with Batz. When Batz became aware of his wanted status, his family allegedly moved him to Fremont, Neb., to evade the charges against him.     

According to a release from the USMS, Batz is a white or Hispanic man, is 5'1" tall, and weighs approximately 115 lbs. He has brown eyes and black hair, as well as a tattoo of the letter J on his right arm. Marshals say he has a list of aliases, including Juan Ralios, Juan Batz, Randy Guerro, Juan Ramos-Batz, Juan Ramos and Omar Gonzalez.

Anyone with information regarding his location is urged to contact the U.S. Marshals at 1-877-WANTED-2, or send tip information via the USMS Tips App.
