From the Houston Chronicle:
A youth sports coach on Houston's northside is accused of sexually assaulting and illegally recording two young girls.
Court records show Juan Jose Cruz, 51, was arrested in July on a second-degree felony indecency with a child charge.
Houston Crime Stoppers says that one charge was upgraded to a first-degree felony aggravated sexual assault of a child and felony invasive visual recording.
Cruz is accused of sexually assaulting several of his team members between the ages of 9 and 11, according to Houston Crime Stoppers.
Cruz apparently missed a routine pre-trial court date Oct. 31, court records show. He was out on bond at the time of the hearing.
A judge ordered Cruz to be arrested on no bond, but officers have been unable to locate him since.
Cruz, who also goes by John Cruz, could be in the Pasadena area. He is six feet tall and weighs about 275 pounds.
Anyone with information about Cruz's whereabouts is urged to call Houston Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477).They are offering a reward up to $5,000 for information leading to his arrest.

Thoughts? As of this posting date (4/7/2019), Cruz still has a warrant and is still not in custody according to Harris County's online criminal court records' search results: www.hcdistrictclerk.com/eDocs/Public/Search.aspx
Needless to say this is a very concerning case as while all alleged child molesters are dangerous, it is the ones who are in professions and may seek professions where they may be around children who have the most opportunity to re-offend. And I fear Cruz seeking reemployment under an alias as a youth soccer coach no matter where he is.
