From foxbaltimore.com:
BALTIMORE (WBFF) — The U.S. Marshals Service has joined the search for a Baltimore man accused of raping a teenage family member.
Laureano Garcia-Leon, 39, is facing multiple charges including first-degree rape.
Investigators said Garcia-Leon forcibly raped the teen inside their home in southeast Baltimore back in March 2021, and once confronted by another relative admitted to the crime.
The U.S. Marshals Service details that Garcia-Leon fled the scene before police arrived at the home and has since been spotted once on Dundalk Avenue in Baltimore’s Highlandtown neighborhood.
Investigators said Garcia-Leon is also wanted for questioning in the rape of his wife in a separate case and should be considered a sexual predator.
“If you’re willing to rape someone that close to you what does that say about any female at all walking the streets,” said Tony Gause, senior inspector with the U.S. Marshals Service.
The U.S. Marshals Service believes Garcia- Leon may be making his way to Mexico to elude capture.
Anyone with any information about his whereabouts is asked to report it to the tipline at 1-877-WANTED 2 or contact SI Gause directly at 202-427-0183.

Thoughts? As of today's posting date (April 26th, 2023), a search of Maryland's online court records still shows Garcia-Leon as having an active warrant:
