Wyckoff Man Charged With Rape Due In Court

A Wyckoff man will inform a Bronx judge next month whether or not he’ll testify to a grand jury on sexual assault and rape charges that were filed against him.

Kevin Convery was charged in May with rape, sexual abuse, and forcible touching after a Manhattan College student accused Convery of raping her in dorm room.

Convery, who played soccer at Bergen Catholic High School, is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday to inform a judge whether or not he’ll testify before the grand jury, said Terry Raskyn, director of public information for the Bronx County District Attorney’s Office.

Convery was scheduled to inform the judge Aug. 17, but the appearance was adjourned, Raskyn said.

Convery allegedly met the victim at a concert in the Manhattan College gym and was invited back to her dorm room, authorities said.

The pair allegedly engaged in sexual activity, but when pressed by Convery to do more, the woman said, “I do not want to have sex,” authorities said.

Convery then allegedly raped the woman, a criminal complaint states, who told Convery, “no.” The woman then allegedly pushed Convery off of her with her arm and leg.

Convery was released on his own recognizance after he was charged, Raskyn said.
