Concord Man Arrested On Child Sexual Assault Charges

CONCORD, NH — A local man was arrested last week and held on cash bail after allegedly sexually assaulting a child, according to police. Nickolas Micucci, 30, of Concord, was arrested on Dec. 30, 2017, on three counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault and a single count of felonious sexual assault, all felonies. According to Lt. Sean Ford, the commander of the Criminal Investigations Division of the Concord Police Department, police received a welfare of a child report that was in the care of an adult male last week.

“Concord Police officers and detectives were called in to investigate the matter,” Ford stated. “Interviews were conducted, search warrants executed and evidence collected that substantiated the crimes as charged.”

Detectives located a suspect – Micucci – and he was arrested without incident and held on $30,000 cash bail. On Tuesday, he was arraigned in Merrimack County Superior Court and bail was re-set at $60,000.

Micucci is no stranger to police or assault, according to prior criminal history.

Back in August 2013, he was arrested in Warner after punching his girlfriend several times in the face, pulling her hair, and slamming her head against a wall, according to the New Hampshire State Police. Micucci also threatened the woman with a knife and stabbed it into a wall, troopers claimed at the time. He later fled the scene but was found later in Contoocook and arrested. Micucci was convicted despite claiming that the woman started the fight.

Micucci appealed the conviction to the New Hampshire Supreme Court stating that evidence – his girlfriend’s mental health records, specifically, self-abuse, from seven years before the incident – as well as in-camera health evidence, the fact that she hadn't been taking her meds, and audio from a 911 call should have been allowed. The court, however, agreed in August 2016, with the trial court’s decision and upheld the conviction.

Police are asking that anyone with information pertaining to this case or other related crimes to contact Det. Lt. Sean Ford 603-225-8600 or the Concord Regional Crime Line 603-226-3100.
