" An American teenager living in Tacoma, Washington could finally see justice for the horrendous sexual assault that she experienced as a child, after mentioning her past ordeal in an admissions essay for college. The 18 year old woman detailed the name of her attacker in her writing, and as a result the confession lead to arrest warrants being issued on Friday against a fugitive 58 year old sex offender. Court documents reveal that the young woman, identified as H.L, admitted in her essay that she had been sexually assaulted by an adult male named Lalo, who was her neighbour at the time with a wife named Belinda and a son named William. Her work explained how she and her younger sister would go to play at the family&amp;#039;s house with the son, but during that time she was also molested by the man. H.L. stated that in 2002 he touched her sexually under her clothes, and her younger sister, who was just 4 or 5 at the time, was also touched on the outside of her clothes. Encouragingly, the college team who received the essay were quick to react to the heartbreaking story, and soon contacted Child Protective Services who then alerted the Tacoma Police Department. On further investigation, officers discovered Everardo Miranda, aged 58, who goes by the nickname of Lalo, had lived near the girls at the relevant time with a wife named Belinda, and a son named William. He was also a registered sex offender. Lalo had failed to report for his monthly report date, and his wife later told police that he had fled to Mexico and was never intending to come back. Prosecutors asked that arrest warrants be issued against him for two counts of first-degree child molestation against H.L, and one count against her younger sister.  The warrants were granted last Friday, and as so many cases of sexual abuse and child molestation often result in the predators never being held to account for their crimes, this is somewhat of a victory for one young girl who found the courage to speak out about her horrendous experience.
