An illegal migrant from Guatemala was arrested after allegedly molesting a five-year-old girl inside her home in two separate incidents, accusations the suspect is denying.

Nicolas Jose Francisco, 25, faces two counts of sexual battery of a child under 12. He is being held without bail at the Palm Beach County jail.

Francisco had been working for the young victim’s family for more than a year when he allegedly molested the girl on two separate occasions in the garage and bathroom of the family’s home, WFLX reported.

The girl first spoke to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida Department of Children and Families on Dec. 13 about the alleged abuse.

Deputies said Francisco later “apologized and admitted his behavior and actions were wrong.”

Francisco appeared before a judge on Friday morning.
