On
Monday, March 19, Greenfield Police Officers arrested 32-year-old Niceforo
Ramirez De Jesus of Greenfield, for rape, lewd acts with a child under 14 years
of age, annoying or molesting a child and oral copulation of a child under the
age of 14 years old. On Thursday, March 15, police received a report of a
past-tense sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl that had occurred near Palm
Avenue in Greenfield 4 days before. The victim met with 2 male acquaintances,
De Jesus and a 14-year old juvenile. De Jesus drove all 3 to a Greenfield
liquor store where he purchased alcohol for the minors and took them to a
Greenfield park and drank it. As the evening progressed, De Jesus took the
youth to another Greenfield park where they continued to drink until the victim
became intoxicated and passed out. De Jesus waited for the victim to wake up; however,
as she was still intoxicated and unable to take care of herself, he began to
sexually assault her. Afterwards, the victim – who had passed out again, was
abandoned near the park. She was located the following morning by family
members and taken to a local hospital for treatment of injuries she had
received during the assault. The investigation is ongoing to determine whether
the 14-year old juvenile was involved, but he has not been charged with any
crime. De Jesus has been booked into the Monterey County Jail and is currently
being held on “no bail.
