MySpace Contact Leads To Sex Assault Charges

Could face up to 20 years:

A 26-year-old Connecticut man who police say had previously worked for the state child welfare agency has been charged with the sexual assault of a child after allegedly engaging in sexual activity with a 14-year-old boy.

Jacob Bonilla, 26, was charged last week with nine counts of second-degree sexual assault and nine counts of risk of injury to a minor after an incident that purportedly occurred sometime last year. Police say the two had met on MySpace.

If convicted on all charges, Bonilla could face up to 20 years in prison.
