A grand jury in Ohio indicted a man on 32 counts of rape for allegedly sexually assaulting three siblings for years.

Samuel Ramirez, 45, was arrested on March 7, according to the Clermont County Sheriff’s Office.

A juvenile who was at Clermont County Mercy Hospital undergoing treatment for unrelated injuries reported being a victim of sexual assault, investigators said.

She told detectives she’d learned that two of her siblings had also been victimized. All three reported Ramirez sexually assaulted them from around the time they were nine to 14. Detectives did not say how Ramirez knows his accusers.

While Ramirez denied the allegations, he reported being in the U.S. illegally and is from Guatemala.

Bond for Ramirez was set at $500,000 and he is also held on an ICE detainer.
