- Felony class one rape of a child.
- Felony class one deviate sexual intercourse with a child.
- Misdemeanor class one for indecent assault with a person less than 13 years of age.

He was apprehended in 2019 by members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force at a home on the 4800 block of Susquehanna Trail in Conewago Township.
The US Marshals turned him over to the York County Sheriff’s Office Central Booking Unit for processing and arraignment and released the following statement:
“The U.S. Marshals Service recognizes the importance of bringing those charged with serious sex crimes to justice as quickly as possible...We give these type cases our utmost attention. It is my hope that the young victim and family members will find comfort knowing the alleged attacker is now in custody.”
