Sex Offender Finally Back Behind Bars
Dallas, TX – Bruno Keith Carmona, 32, was arrested this
morning by the United States Marshals Service North Texas Fugitive Task Force
(NTFTF) in Dallas, TX. An arrest warrant was issued pursuant to an
investigation by the Bexar County Adult Probation Office, where it is alleged
that Carmona failed to report and absconded from supervision and an additional
arrest warrant was issued pursuant to an investigation by the Bexar County
Sheriff’s Office (BCSO), where it is alleged that Carmona failed to comply with
sex offender registration.
On December 11, 2013, the Lone Star Fugitive Task Force
(LSFTF) initiated an investigation in the search for Carmona. Subsequent to the
investigation, task force officers discovered that Carmona had previously fled
from San Antonio, TX to Dallas, TX. The LSFTF then contacted the NTFTF in
Dallas, TX for assistance in locating and apprehending Carmona. On December 17,
2013, task force officers received a Crime Stoppers tip that Carmona was hiding
out with his girlfriend at a residence in the 600 block of Rayenell Avenue in
Dallas, TX. This morning, task force officers conducted a brief surveillance,
entered the residence, identified themselves, made contact with Carmona, and
took him into custody without incident.
In 2011, Carmona was convicted and sentenced to 3 months in
a Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) Intermediate Sanction Facility
for committing indecency with a child by sexual contact. He was also ordered to
serve an additional 10 years of probation upon his release. In July 2012,
Carmona allegedly violated the conditions of his probation by failing to report
and absconding from supervision. A warrant was issued for Carmona’s arrest soon
after. In May of this year, an additional warrant was issued for Carmona’s
arrest on allegations involving failure to comply with sex offender
registration. Just 2 days ago, the Texas Department of Public Safety added
Carmona to the Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender list and a $3,000 cash reward
was offered for information leading to his capture. Carmona was arrested this
morning after a tip was provided through Crime Stoppers.
Carmona is currently being held in custody at the Dallas
County Jail awaiting extradition to Bexar County.
Robert R. Almonte, United States Marshal for the Western
District of Texas, stated, “Another job well done, another sexual predator
behind bars, and another Crime Stoppers tip that led to the arrest.”
