A Texas ‘most wanted’ captured in Wyoming

AUSTIN — A Texas 10 Most Wanted sex offender is back in custody following his recent arrest, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Authorities arrested wanted sex offender Ramiro Dominguez on June 27 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Dominguez was DPS’ Featured Fugitive in June 2024, and a Crime Stoppers reward will be paid in his arrest.

Dominguez, 35, was taken into custody in Cheyenne following information received last month. DPS special agents from Lubbock coordinated with officers from the Cheyenne Police Department to locate and arrest Dominguez.

Dominguez had been wanted since December 2023, when a warrant was issued out of Hale County, Texas, for his arrest for failure to comply with sex offender registration requirements. In 2012, Dominguez was convicted of first-degree rape in Oklahoma following an incident with a 10-year-old girl. He was subsequently sentenced to 8 years confinement.

Also in 2012, he was convicted of domestic assault and battery/abuse in Oklahoma and sentenced to three years of confinement, to be served concurrently with his 8-year sentence for rape. Funded by the Governor’s Public Safety Office, Texas Crime Stoppers offers cash rewards to anyone who provides information that leads to the arrest of one of Texas’ 10 Most Wanted Fugitives, Sex Offenders or Criminal Illegal Immigrants.

In 2024, DPS and other agencies have arrested 23 Texas 10 Most Wanted Fugitives, Sex Offenders and Criminal Illegal Immigrants, including 10 sex offenders, eight gang members and two criminal illegal immigrants.
