A Redwood City resident with a prior sex offense was sentenced to six years in prison for felony child molestation, San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
The man, Fidelino Jesus Ruiz, was found guilty by a jury in February 2025 of felony child molestation and annoyance after coming up to a minor at the Redwood City Courthouse and asking to be her boyfriend and have sex with her, hugging her tightly and suggesting they run away to Mexico.
