A man who allegedly sneaked into a Linda Vista home and sexually assaulted a 5-year-old girl inside the residence was ordered Thursday to stand trial on charges that include lewd acts on a child and burglary.
Alejandro Jose Confesor, 23, is accused of entering a Wellington Street home around 1:45 a.m. on April 18 and sexually abusing the child in her bedroom.
San Diego police say video surveillance captured Confesor returning to the same home three days later about 3:30 a.m. He is not accused of harming anyone in the home on that day, but is accused of taking items from the home’s garage. He’s also accused of unlawfully entering another home and a person’s vehicle in the same neighborhood.
Prosecutors say Confesor has no relationship with the victims.
Confesor was arrested on the night of April 21 on Linda Vista Road, less than 2 miles from the Wellington Street address.
After Confesor’s arrest, police found he had items stolen from the home where the girl was allegedly molested, according to testimony from a preliminary hearing held on Thursday. Confesor also allegedly had a picture on his cellphone of the inside of a nearby home, and his fingerprints were lifted from an unlocked vehicle in the neighborhood, which prosecutors allege he entered and stole cash from.
Confesor remains in custody without bail.
