The abuse came to light on May 16, when a teacher at Elm Creek Elementary caught one of the victims searching for pornography on a school-issued iPad, according to documents.

When the teacher asked the girl why she was searching for pornography, the child told her that she was searching for what was being done to her at night. She said Garay sexually assaults her "all the time at night" and never lets her sleep.

The investigator later discovered Garay had previously been investigated by CPS for sexual abuse of two relatives.

Deputies with the Bexar County Sheriff's Office later obtained an arrest warrant for Garay and booked him into jail on Wednesday.
