She said he has been placed on an immigration hold. Molina was born in Mexico but lives in the U.S. Sgt. Dave Lund of the Appleton, Wis., police said Molina is wanted by both the Outagamie, Wis., County Sheriff and the Appleton Police Department. He is wanted by the Outagamie sheriff on the sex offense charge, charges that have been pending since January 2007, Lund said. Appleton police have a misdemeanor disorderly conduct warrant out for Molina from 2005. A spokesperson for the Outagamie sheriff was not immediately available for comment. Molina promoter Leon Margules was unavailable for comment.Schaefer, whose company promotes Charlo, said he did not have much information on the charges against Molina."I was told he was being processed and would be released and that he is expected to be at the press conference today," Schaefer told Yahoo Sports.
