More Charges for East Windsor Man Accused of Sex Assault
By Lea Kahn
A 36-year-old East Windsor Township man who allegedly molested a young boy is facing additional charges after a second victim stepped forward with similar claims, according to Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo Onofri and East Windsor Township Police Chief James A. Geary. Menachem A. Chinn, 40, of East Windsor Township and who teaches at the Shalom Torah Academy in Monmouth County, was charged last month with one count each of endangering the welfare of a child and sexual assault in an incident involving a 12-year-old boy. The alleged assault occurred at Chinn’s home in 2012. A second victim, who is now an adult, has stepped forward and alleged that Chinn had inappropriate sexual contact with him on several occasions at Chinn’s home between July 2010 and May 2011, said Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office spokeswoman Casey DeBlasio. As a result, Chinn has been charged with an additional count of endangering the welfare of a child and an additional count of sexual assault, DeBlasio said. Chinn had been the second victim’s teacher and youth group religious mentor. The second victim reached out to police after learning that Chinn had been arrested in connection with the incident involving the 12-year-old boy. Chinn is being held at the Mercer County Correction Center. The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information on the case should contact Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office Detective Alicia Bergondo at 609-989-6568 or East Windsor police Detective Thomas Meyer at 609-448-5678.
