Spanish-speaking ‘rapist used Google Translate to tell teen victim she was pretty and to keep what happened secret’

AN ACCUSED rapist used Google Translate to to speak with his 15-year-old victim and tell her she was pretty, according to authorities.

Victor Emandes Ramirez grabbed the teen as she walked to her school bus stop last week and drove her to his mobile home in North Carolina, according to search warrant obtained by WRAL.

Cops say he sexually assaulted her and forced her to perform sex acts, according to the TV station, before he drove her to school.

Officials at the school called 911 and the girl’s father.

“It could have gone a lot of different ways, but luckily, the sheriff got him before I did,” the victim’s dad told WRAL.

“I hope he gets life in prison, and I hope he gets tortured every day of his life.”

He added that it was “one of the worst phone calls you could ever get and one of the hardest things to deal with.”

“We’re going to get through it,” he told WRAL. “It’s just tough, it really is, but my main goal is to try to make it better.”

The girl said that the 33-year-old Ramirez used Google Translate on his cellphone to translate his Spanish to English and complimented her looks, according to WRAL. She was also told not to tell anyone what happened.

Ramirez, who lives in Zebulon, was charged with kidnapping, statutory rape of a child 15 or younger and statutory sex offense of a child 15 or under.

He is being held on $1 million bond.
