School district suspends custodian accused of impregnating minor

An Irving ISD custodian is in custody for allegedly impregnating a 14-year-old girl and giving her pills that aborted the fetus.

Mauricio Hernandez is charged with aggravated sexual assault and is being held at the Irving Jail. Hernandez, 51, has been suspended and placed on paid administrative leave pending the investigation, said Irving Independent School District spokesman Billy Rudolph in a statement.

According to Irving PD spokesman John Argumaniz, police were alerted to the situation when the girl was taken to the hospital because she was bleeding. While receiving care, she cried out about the sexual assault and said she was pregnant and had given birth to a baby.

Hospital officials called Irving police, which triggered the investigation. Argumaniz said the child was found dead a short time later. He would not comment further about where the baby was found, citing the victim's age and the ongoing investigation.
