Riverco fugitive wanted for sex crimes against children found in Mexico
A 75-year-old man accused of sexually assaulting three girls in San Jacinto and fleeing south of the border prior to a court appearance last year was apprehended in Mexico and extradited back to the United States, authorities said today.
Harry Arlington Durette was captured in Rosarito following an investigation by Riverside County District Attorney’s Office personnel and the U.S. Marshals’ Pacific Southwest Regional Fugitive Task Force.
Durette is charged with 65 felony offenses, most of them alleging forcible lewd acts on a child under 14 years old.
