No charges for Dome Valley man accused of sexual abuse of a child

A Dome Valley man isn’t facing any charges for allegedly sexually abusing and molesting a child last week.

56-year-old Ernesto Marron Juarez appeared in court Thursday morning and was acquitted of all charges.

His wife 53-year-old Hilda B. Juarez was also not charged. She was arrested prior to one count of Failure to Report neglect of a minor.

On February 1st the Yuma County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call in reference to a possible sexual abuse and molestation case.

The victim told deputies that she had been sexually abused by Juarez at his home off East County 7th Street in Dome Valley, Ariz.

Wellton Justice Court clerk’s office says the case has been closed until further notice. We are still working to figure out the exact details of why the charges were dropped. We will have those answers to you as soon as they become available.
