From CBS Austin:
He's a man that travels for a living, working as a truck driver throughout the country. Now Dario Jeremias Silva is wanted for aggravated sexual assault of a child.
"It was during multiple occasions while Silva was driving through Austin that he would assault the victim, sexually," says Lone Star Fugitive Task Force Commander Hector Gomez.
Investigators say the victim's family allowed Silva, who is now 41, to stay in their home when driving through Austin.
The sexual encounters started when the girl was about 13 in June 2010 and continued for about a year.
Gomez says, "And then he would begin the manipulation phase by taking the victim to the mall and to stores and buying her gifts and buying her items of value in an effort to persuade the victim from not making an outcry."
The mother found out about the sexual encounters when she took her daughter to the doctor for stomach pain.
Tests determined the girl was pregnant.
According to the arrest affidavit, the victim's mother confronted Silva. She told police that Silva asked for her forgiveness and admitted that he was responsible.
"I believe that this is not the first time that Silva has done this," says Gomez, who believes there may be more victims. "As long as remains free, he certainly is going to avail himself to take advantage of young, unsuspecting females."
Silva has vitiligo, a disease that causes the loss of skin color in blotches. The condition is very visible on Silva's neck and chin area.
If you have any information on Silva's whereabouts, call the Lone Star Fugitive Task Force tip line at (512) 800-4213.

Thoughts? As of this posting date (May 20th, 2020), Silva is still listed on the U.S. Marshals website as one of their most wanted fugitives out of the Western District of Texas: www.usmarshals.gov/district/tx-w/fugitives/
Some technical notes: I put 2010-2011 in the thread title as alleged offense years since admittedly there is no set order as to how I choose reference the years in the thread titles and it's simply how I choose to title- sometimes they go by warrant year and other times by alleged offense years. Since I only know the alleged offense years in this case, I chose them for the thread title. However, it should be stressed authorities believe Silva may have even more alleged victims.
The good news is vitiligo is what helped catch fellow Marshals fugitive Luis Frias to be recognized by a tipster in Mexico, so hopefully history can repeat itself if this case ever gets more publicity.
