A Fort Stockton man was arrested a residence in the city on Sunday morning and charged with aggravated sexual assault, along with three additional charges.

Jesus Alfredo Gonzalez, 29, was arrested shortly after 6 a.m. on June 19 and booked into the county jail on charges for assault family/house member impeded breathing, interference with emergency telephone, unlawful restraint, and aggravated sexual assault.

According to Fort Stockton Police Chief Robert Lujan and the arresting officer, Gonzalez kicked in the front door of his and his wife’s house and proceeded to assault her. Gonzalez's wife, the victim, then waited until her husband fell asleep before leaving the residence and calling law enforcement.

“He busted down the door and then he attacked his wife. She waited till he went to sleep and then she called the police,” Lujan said.

The victim was transported to the hospital and received medical treatment before being released.

Gonzalez received $50,000 bonds for both assault charges, and $20,000 bonds for the interference with emergency telephone and unlawful restraint - a total of $140,000 for the four bonds. Gonzalez posted bond and was released the same day.

The investigating officer stated that the investigation is ongoing and once complete, the case will go to the 83rd District Attorney’s Office.

Aggravated sexual assault is a first-degree felony, which has a minimum sentence of five years in prison if Gonzalez is found guilty according to the Texas Penal Code.

In addition to imprisonment, an individual adjudged guilty of a felony of the first degree may be punished by a fine not to exceed $10,000.
