The man described as "the #1 most wanted criminal illegal immigrant" in the state of Texas has been arrested, this time for allegedly sexually assaulting a child.About a month ago, Greg Abbott, the Republican governor of Texas, issued a list of Texas' top 10 "Most Wanted Criminal Illegal Immigrants" as part of a statewide initiative to curb illegal immigration. Barely a week later, Abbott could already claim a major victory after the suspect ranked highest on the list, 38-year-old Victor Hugo Chox Gonzalez, was apprehended in Forth Worth."Texas captures the #1 most wanted criminal illegal immigrant. He's now behind bars in Tarrant Co. We continue our search for the other most wanted," Abbott posted to X just a few days after Gonzalez's arrest.The current accusations against Chox Gonzalez are horrific. Among other offenses, he has been charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child and indecency with a child by sexual contact after warrants were issued to that effect last year.Chox Gonzalez, a Mexican national in the U.S. illegally, remains in custody at Tarrant County Jail on a bond of nearly $150,000. Jail records list his race as "white."This recent arrest is hardly Chox Gonzalez's first. In fact, in addition to multiple illegal border crossings, he has a history of criminal activity within the United States that dates back almost a decade.In 2016, Chox Gonzalez was deported after a conviction on charges related to assault of a family member resulting in injury and driving under the influence. A child under the age of 15 was also a passenger in the vehicle at the time of the DUI, though whether the child was the injured party is unclear. He has been previously charged with child cruelty causing possible injury or deathIn 2021, he was back in Tarrant County, Texas, and charged with assault once again, as well as failing to properly identify himself. Chox Gonzalez has a string of known aliases, including Victor Coronado Gonzalez, Arturo Sanchez, and Felix Lopez.The Texas Department of Safety also provided several mug shots of Chox Gonzalez taken for different arrests: Screenshot of Texas DPS press releaseWhen Chox Gonzalez is next to appear in court and whether he has an attorney are unclear. Gov. Abbott did not respond to Newsweek's request for comment.Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

The transition from gas-powered automobiles to electric vehicles has been a gong show, even though Democrat bans on new gas cars have not yet gone into effect. The trouble is not simply that EVs — which require the mining of many times more minerals than required for a conventional vehicle — are less environmentally friendly than promised or that they are both expensive and unreliable. Electric vehicles require charging stations. Unless Americans are to be confined to 15-minute cities, there needs to be a juiced network of such stations. The infrastructure is not in place, however, thanks in part to the Biden administration's bungling of its promised national rollout of EV charging stations. The Democratic administration has established fewer than a dozen of the promised 500,000 charging stations across the country. Even if there was a satisfactory number of active stations, there is no guarantee they would be useful on account of power supply issues. Last month, the California-based software company Xendee released the results of its survey of leaders "involved in the development, operation, and commercial use of EV charging infrastructure." 75% of respondents said electric grid limitations were a "significant roadblock to the rollout of EV charging infrastructure for commercial EV usage." Despite uncertainty about whether the charging stations will have the power to charge the cars, 84% of fleet owners indicated they expect to draw grid power from the utility. A new report from ISO New England Inc., the transmission organization that oversees New England's bulk electric power system and corresponding transmission lines, revealed that EV vehicle adoption over the next decade would significantly drive up electricity demand — demand satisfied mostly with natural gas, reported the VTDigger. Vermont is hardly an exception. Princeton University recently projected that the U.S. will need 3,360% more electricity on hand to satisfy the Biden administration's EV goals, reported the Daily Mail. "Right now, our infrastructure is likely 'OK' for the slow trickle of EV adoption," Robby DeGraff, the manager of product and consumer insights at AutoPacific, told the Mail. Increased demand shaped by government mandates will, however, mean that "the grid will certainly need to be revamped." Already states like Georgia, Arizona, and California are buzzing their way toward capacity, and the costly infrastructure needed is far from established. Michael Stadler, chief technology and marketing officer at Xendee, told Utility Drive that not only have numerous prospective EV charging station developers acknowledged they would be unable to acquire adequate electricity from utilities, electricity prices in some regions make it uneconomic to link up. "Time of use rates and power charges are a really big problem," said Stadler. "If you end up paying more for electricity than gas, then something is wrong." Many of Xendee's clients have apparently opted to install fossil-fuel-powered generators to power their charging stations. So in effect, there's a good chance that EVs whose drivers manage to find charging stations are powered by the same energy source EV is supposed to have made redundant — if not by a generator on-site, then by a predominantly gas-powered grid.
