Man Charged In Sexual Assault Of Minor Rearrested: Greenwich PD

GREENWICH, CT — Police said a New York man was picked up by Bail Enforcement Agents and turned over to Greenwich Police on Monday after a re-arrest warrant was issued by the court. Julio Molineros, 61, of Port Chester, N.Y., was charged with first-degree failure to appear, according to an arrest report.

Police said the accused was investigated for the sexual assault of a minor in late 2016. The investigation developed probable cause to obtain a warrant for his arrest for fourth-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a minor, police said.

"Upon obtaining the warrant, police discovered Molineros had left the area," police said in the report.

In May 2017, Greenwich Police discovered the accused was in the Los Angeles area. He was subsequently located and taken into custody with the assistance of federal and local authorities, police said.

The accused was later extricated to Connecticut to face charges and was subsequently released on a $100,000 bond, police said.

Police said the accused "failed to appear for one or more scheduled court appearances," and the court issued a warrant for first-degree failure to appear on July 3.

On Monday, Bail Enforcement Agents located the accused and returned him to Greenwich Police, where he was arrested and charged with failure to appear.

"Victims of sexual assault deserve to have their cases vigorously pursued so that their offenders can be held accountable," Sergeant Brent Reeves of the department's Special Victims Section said. "The detectives from the SVS are relentless in their pursuit of justice for the victims. In just the last two years, SVS detectives have traveled to Los Angeles, Calif., Biloxi, Miss., and Kansas City, Kan., to hunt down these offenders."
