A San Antonio man faces charges after the 12-year-old daughter of his girlfriend reported being abused after she was found to be several weeks pregnant during a hospital visit.

Tommy Guerrero, 41, was charged with continuous sexual abuse of a child on Monday with a bond totaling $100,000. Guerrero, who was still in jail Tuesday evening, is also held on a separate charge of possession of a controlled substance.

The girl was being treated at a hospital for what was thought to be meningitis, arriving with symptoms of headache and vomiting, according to an affidavit for arrest warrant. She was found to be pregnant while she was evaluated, the warrant states.

During an interview with a sexual assault nurse examiner, the girl was crying as she reported the assaults from a man nicknamed “Smiley,” noting it happened about nine times since she was 9 years old.

Guerrero is the boyfriend of the girl’s mother, the warrant states. The girl said the assaults occurred when Guerrero, whom she referred to as “Smiley,” would visit the family at their home.

The warrant states the girl tried to fight off Guerrero during the alleged assaults, but she was overpowered.
