Sex Offender Arrested for Allegedly Abusing Boy, Handcuffing Him to Tree:
The other day when I posted about the Staten Island teen who was found tied to a tree after an alleged MySpace meeting, I have to admit I was a little suspicious of his story. Well shame on me because police have arrested a suspect.
A tip led police to the 26-year-old man, whose photo was identified by the boy, said Lt. Robert Sprague. Investigators later found the boy’s bracelet and his cell phone at the suspect’s Staten Island house, he said. Charges were pending in the case.
Investigators said the man had a 1999 conviction for sodomy and endangering the welfare of a child.
Police said the suspect also was involved in the attempted abduction of a 14-year-old boy on Staten Island on March 5.
My apologies for doubting.
