In May 2007, Peguero was convicted in Webb County of indecency with a child through exposure. By law, he had to register with law enforcement. He had been a registered sex offender with LPD since August 2012.

He allegedly signed documentation acknowledging his requirements and confirming that he's aware of his duty to report. Part of his requirements included reporting the vehicle he was driving.

Police said Peguero failed to report and provide details on the Nissan Sentra he was driving.
