Man Molested 2 Kids At His Camden Co. Home, Jury Rules

PENNSAUKEN, NJ — A man was convicted last week of sexually assaulting two children in his Camden County home.

The victims testified that Henry Parker molested them at his Pennsauken home throughout a period of nearly a decade, until they reported him to police.

On June 14, a jury returned guilty verdicts against Parker for two counts of aggravated sexual assault (first-degree), five counts of sexual assault (second-degree), four counts of child endangerment (second-degree), five counts of aggravated criminal sexual contact (third-degree), and one count of engaging or soliciting prostitution from a minor.

Parker, 71, was acquitted on three counts of child endangerment, and three other counts in the indictment resulted in a hung jury. After the guilty verdict, Parker was placed in the Camden County Correctional Facility. His sentencing is set for Aug. 23.

Parker's offenses occurred between October 2009 and January 2018, according to the Camden County Prosecutor's Office.
