The trial for a Rio Grande Valley Border Patrol agent accused of sexual assault will start on Tuesday, court records indicate.

A jury was selected Monday in the trial of Juan Jose Olivares.

According to an indictment, Olivares was accused of sexual assault by a woman in 2019.

The woman was identified as a DEA agent.

Olivares was arrested in connection with the investigation by the Brownsville Police Department in 2023. He has been out on a $65,000 bond since his initial arrest.
