Woodridge Man Sexually Abused Teen He Met On Snapchat: Police

WOODRIDGE, IL – A Woodridge man sexually abused a 15-year-old boy he met on Snapchat and then hid him when officers arrived, authorities said Friday.

Christian Suarez Isoldi, 32, was charged with four counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, police said. A judge ordered him to stay in jail until his trial.

About 12:30 a.m. Thursday, Woodridge police received a request for a well-being check from the teen's friend, according to a news release from the DuPage County prosecutors.

The caller told police the boy was communicating about sexual acts occurring with a man later identified as Suarez Isoldi, police said.

Police said their investigation led officers to an apartment complex on Waterbury Drive in Woodridge. Once there, officers knocked on Suarez Isoldi's door and were let inside by Suarez Isoldi and another person.

Officers spoke with Suarez Isoldi and eventually found the boy in a bedroom closet, police said. Suarez Isoldi was arrested.

Investigators allege that on Wednesday, Suarez Isoldi met the boy on Snapchat and that around midnight, after the boy snuck out of his house, Suarez Isoldi picked him up just down the street from his home and drove him to the apartment.

Prosecutors further allege that once there, Suarez Isoldi brought the boy to his bedroom and sexually abused him.

"While social media apps are frequently used by millions of people every day, I remind everyone, particularly parents of young children, that these apps are misused every day as well and to please keep a watchful eye on your children's social media usage," DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin said in a statement.
