Man Who Molested 4 Kids In South Jersey Gets Sentenced

VINELAND, NJ — A man who sexually assaulted four children in Cumberland County was sentenced Monday to prison.

Andy Chanza, 67, of Newfield, was handed an aggregate term of eight years behind bars. He must serve at least 85 percent of the prison term before parole eligibility.

The charges stem from several incidents that occurred throughout a 29-year period in Vineland, according to the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office. During that span, Chanza had sexual contact with four victims who were younger than 13, the CCPO said.

Additional information about the incidents was not available.

In December, Chanza pleaded guilty to four counts of sexual assault. Upon release, he must register as as sex offender and will be subject to parole supervision for life.
